That's the part number for the end links.
I am excited that this 20 MM RSB will fit.
Rpappi, did you buy all the other parts yet? Just need to buy the end links?
Thanks,

It will most likely change teh handeling of your car. No it most likely wont be for the worse. It will probably make the car more neutral or for the for the front to push a little less, if pushed hard enough the rear may want to come around slightly. It wont make your car be ill handeling for normal driving if thats what your worried about.

ya i understand all that i was just wondering if making the rear that much stiffer will make the car uneven. im hoping for neutral. i dont mind some rear end slid im used to it. i just dont want it to be way off. any who im going to try to get it soon. maybe in the next 2 weeks.

I wonder how they would compare to the Eibach's and the comptech's sway bars

I already told you that it will set the chassis more neutral because the car is set for understeer. If you consider the factory tune "even", then yeah, what you are about to do will make it uneven.
Also, you're getting a 20mm bar.
Comptech makes 22mm rear bar for the 2G (front stays the same diameter but thicker wall).
So if people can live with 22mm in the rear, then you will be fine with 20mm.
Bottom line, it's not going to the swing the ass end out around every turn. It will still exhibit understeer; just less of it now.

I spoke to a 2nd gen guy with the 3rd gen RSB and he said that he reused his original end links. I don't think you need to replace them. To be honest I don't think that Acura changed them all that much anyways. Now on a side note he replaced his bar with the Comptech RSB; the OEM 3rd gen M/T sway bar may be slightly different. Probably not but just a disclaimer.

Never Mind, i got an update.
I just had mine installed yesterday. My end link bolts were rusted and seized beyond belief so i had to pay $90 for new beefier endlinks too. $60 upgrade became $150 upgrade. OH well...
It feels good, definitly less understeer when whipping around turns and such. With this upgrade and my coils set stiffer, feels like i am riding on rails.
Defintily a good cheap upgrade, depending on the condition of your own 17mm bar, you could get a few dollars out of it for Accord guys looking to upgrade thiers to a 17 mm.

I'm gonna put an order on the H&R rear sway bar and get new endlinks as well.
