- Sun Jan 10, 2010 2:05 pm #167342 this might be a stupid and obvious answer but if you have traction bars you dont need a front sway bar and what would be better for a daily

- Thu Jul 08, 2010 9:26 pm #203721 so I have a 94 ex and have a friend that upgraded his 94 integra... I want to add his sway bars to my eg sedan ex w/abs. how big are the integra swaybars compared to the stock ex swaybars. will I notice much diffrence? and do I need a rear subframe brace?
Thanks

- Thu Jul 08, 2010 10:34 pm #203731 Well right now your ex has a 22mm front sway bar I'm not sure what size is on the 94 integra but the 99 itr comes with a 24mm so I'm guessing it should be the same as your ex and youll only need a subframe brace at 24mm or higher

I'm going to the gulf, swim down and plug that oil leak with my dick

- Fri Jul 09, 2010 9:34 pm #203926 What about for the rear?? is it larger or same? will I need a brace for the rear?

Traction bars and sway bars are completely different things with completely different effects.

The sway bar has the effect of making your springs stiffer but only in turns.

The traction bar prevents alignment changes due to flex in the bushings and other built in compliance. Basically it adds the radius rods back in since Honda took them out from the EG and DC.

The traction bar effects hard launching and is used for drag racing. The sway bar effects cornering and is used for road racing.

Both of these are different from chassis bracing, but you didn't ask about that.
