Finally got my Si sway bar...!!
ok, finally got it from sohfast. everything seems to be there. however the mounting bracket to the lower subframe part seem to be missing something.... like 4 bolts. so what kinda bolts do i need? also, is there like a rubber bushing of some sort that is suppose to be between the subframe and the mounting bracket? if someone with Si bar...please help me out. thanks.
oh one more thing... i think i need to replace the bushings on that mofo... so any suggestions? cuz the si bar seems kinda thin... so i dont' know if the ES will work. should i just pay the money and get the bushings and bolts and what not from honda direct? or should i DIY the mofo and pick up the bolts and stuff like that at home depot? as for the bushings... i don't know what to do about that...

thats good to hear bro. :thumbup:
Did you not get any bushings to go with the brackets that mount to the subF? I thought they claimed to sell the SI bar with all the hardware? GRRR.
E-m Sohfast first to see if they forgot to put those things in .

12mm? what are the torque specs? i couldn't find any info in my helms manual under suspension section.

there is no bushing in between the bracket and subframe. you know you have to drill holes too. my si sway bar is sitting in the corner of my garage. i love my 22 mm progress.

sohfast e-mail to let me know they've shipped the bolts... so hopefully i'll get them soon, cuz i can't wait to install it.

humm... i don't think i need to drill holes because my is 2000 EX coupe.. which already comes with pre-drill holes.

my ex does, my friends dx does and his brothers lx does.
as far as bushings rui,
i used the prothane ones, forget which ones but they are the size of a siver dollar and are about 1/2" thick, i got a gsr rear sway so i dont know if you need them. the gsr mounting plates are offset from the sub frame so you need bushings if you got a gsr mounting plate.
yours looks like its flat but its from the back view.
