Best swaybars?

been looking into a new set of bars for my prelude, currently i run with no bar up front and the stock rear bar, should i just get a new rear bar and stay with no bar in front or should i get a set of bars?

also which is best and why? i've heard great things about that rare 28mm neuspeed bar.

I heard the 28mm neuspeed is good till it rips out.

S/T's full set 28mm front and 25mm rear. they're solid. not hard to install. however i do have problems with clearance with the exhaust, they make horrible noise banging eachother....dunno...


but the handling is awesome!!

Once you weld that puppy back in, though, you're good to go, for a LONG time. Dr. James and I have done this, and he even made a custom bracket for his, and then welded that one (right, Doc??) to the frame. It's honestly worth the headache, if you get it to rip out, b/c the car handles like it's on rails ... better than ANY other 4th Gen I've had the honor of riding in.

...hmmm, can you elaborate more on this, like what did you weld? or Even some pics??? Sounds interesting....

I have GAB bars all round, front/rear-upper/lower. They were fitted to the car when it rolled off of the boat, which was nice!
I haven't driven the car without them so I can't comment on the difference they would have made, but it does hold the road quite nicely
