TypeR ►EK9 Honda Civic Type R Cusco 24mm rear Sway Bar Installation◄

One of the best mods you can do to the EK9, the oem rear sway bar is 22mm, this 2mm difference can make a really good difference

Lets get the cusco 24 mm sway bar out of the box hehe



OEM 22mm ek9 rear sway bar:



Remove the oem sway bar



Lets compare the OEM 22 mm sway bar, with the 24 mm sway bar.



Cool huh?



Now lets install the cusco 24 mm rear sway bar

sorry for the super late response.
anyways, i thought u guys were funny cuz earlier this year, i asked you guys if i will see a huge improvement if i got a mugen 26mm rear sway bar and you guys said that it would be a waste of money and i won't feel any difference. now you guys are saying that there is a HUGE difference between the stock 22mm and cusco 24mm...so yea...confused...

Re: EK9 Honda Civic Type R Cusco 24mm rear Sway Bar Installation

It sure looks nice anyway. Would a rear strut bar be of more advantage than adding a bigger sway bar?

Re: EK9 Honda Civic Type R Cusco 24mm rear Sway Bar Installation

bigger anti roll bar anytime... stiffens the back up far more noticabley than a rear strut brace. (IMO anyways!) fitted my strut brace and didnt really notice ALOT of differnce but when i upgraded my ARB it was far superior
