92-5 Civics shared the same parts as the 94-01 Integras. I don't know about 88....
So can you tell me what the point of stiffening the front of a car that comes with gross understeer from the factory and then most aftermarket suspension setups aimed at a lower spring rate in the back to retain that understeer?
I am sure you felt a difference, but did it work in your favor or not?
The lower tie bar is probably the most useful of all the bars since it stiffens the back a little, but a sway bar will always get rid of or severely lessen that nasty understeer.
