I had some Eibach on my '02 TL-S. I loved those.

I know there is also Comptech and Neuspeed. Any recommendations?

For some reason I remember that someone said that the Comptech are the same size as the stock.

Maybe someone can explain what makes a good sway bar and what doesn't.

Hollow or solid?
Thickness?

etc.

Thanks

 

the only sway bar i know out there is the Comptech.
it all depends if you have a 6MT or a AT. the 6MT has a thicker sway bar than the AT. The Comptech RSB (22mm?) is slightly thicker than the one in the 6MT(20mm?). either way, it is a big improvement. i have a 6MT and the car just takes those NJ jug handle turns like it was on rails.

 

I have a AT......

Hmmmm ok, I will have to consider that then.

When you say the only one you know of...I assume you mean the only one you know of for the '05 right?

UPDATE:

It seems it is only the rear bar they offer..is that correct?

 

Correct.

 

hmm everyone is feeling that much of a difference from just one bar replaced?

Wow...must be one hell of a bar

 

If you have a 5AT, there's nothing to consider. Just realize that after you do it, you'll wish you acted sooner.

If you are going to buy a CT sway check out this site on ebay, I just bought mine from scott at Acura of Las Vegas and it was $100.00 plus free shipping.

I see that he doesn't have one up for auction you may have to email him. I think I bought his last one.

 

Installation note:

Don't let an Acura dealer rip you off! Most of them charge 1–1½ hours of labor for what’s really nothing more than a 10 minute job consisting of removal and reinstall of only 4 bolts and 2 nuts once the car is on the lift, about the same or less time than it takes to change the oil. The independent repair shop I’ve been doing business with for years did it in 7 minutes .... the route to go.

 

I bought my RSB from Acura of Las Vegas and left the guy a message saying that I want to buy the RSB and he put one up on auction the same day.

 

Thanks for the info....I have a guy that does alot of my auto work for me when I am too lazy. For example he want about $30 to put the CAI in.....wel worth it to me.

I will have to get him to do the sway also.

Thanks for the advice!

 

I put a Comptech sway bar on my 05 TL Auto and it DOES make a HUGE difference on the automatics....dont wait any longer!

Here is a place to get one on Ebay and Aspec stuff, etc! "AOFEPARTS" is the seller name and Acura of Escondido Parts is the Ebay store name....link below....
