Order them, but I'm next on the list (they are on backorder, I knew they were by the way).

i think i was the first to get them from him... got his last one before he had to reorder them. def felt a difference in cornering, tighted up the whole chassis. evens out the car in the turns when i just had the front strut bar. i recommend them.

S/T
Neuspeed

I have the S/T's and are great. The neuspeed ones are rather pricey and i think they hang lower which might cause u to scrape.

I got the S/T from myself of couse and I just put them on over the weekend. I have the front and rear sway bar set and they look pretty cool. Don't seem to have clearance problem but when I install the front one, the sway bar link broke. I got the link from the dealer yesterday and got them put on. Have not really test out the car yet since I have still waiting for Tein Type-HA to come in. Hurry up you slow ass Tein!!

What link broke.... you gotta be sepcific...cause i got a set and i dont want anything to break or go wrong during the install.

Can tell me if you need any special kinda tools for install .... I only got a ratchet set and a few screw drivers. Do i need a torque wrench or anyting....Please let me know.

SK Honda 7-

The sway bar link broke in the front. It was just too old and I broke it off while trying to get the stock one off. You will need to lift the car up as sway bar is really hard to do if you don't have a lift. Power tool or wrenches would be good to use. No need for a screw driver.

Would a regular jack will be enough.....like the one they use to lift NASCAR stock cars. Or should i use the jack stands as well.

Should i WD40 all bolts and conection the night before to loosen them up. My care is farely new its only about a year old. Also do i have to remove wheels at all?

the hydraulic jack is perfect but always use jack stands when u are raising the vehicle because it helps stabilize the car and it won't fall on u

why would the bar scrape? are you smookin crack or something its a bar not like a exhaust or anything. if you can scrape my bar my control arms will be on the floor. i have a neuspeed 1. i think its great. the st uses stock brackets which are alil weak while the neuspeed uses new beefy ones. its so thick. they use to rip outta the car b4 it would break. i got it free so i like it. i was still going to pay 300 for it though cuz i trust the name and like the beefy ness of it. ive seen both and i like my neuspeed. its seems so strong even though they are the same thicness.

i was thinking should i get the front neuspeed? everyone here usually gets the rear sway only. i want to road race my car so i need more even handling vs haviing the rear kick out with just the rear
