5kg/mm front and 10kg/mm rear with the comptech sway-tie combo? That would cause the car to be a death trap h:

Currently, I'm rocking a style that's popular with japanese Gymkhana racers, without the extreme camber. Very streetable with a very neutral feel. Before I had put the coilovers on, though, I had the comptech installed for nearly a year, and with it on the medium setting, it was very predictable, but a little shakey in rain. I reccomend going with the medium setting max if you standard springs, then going to hard if you have nice and balanced aftermarket springs.

 

H&R Race springs + KYB AGX + Comptech sway bar = teh win!

 

A lot of the road racers I know with hondas run stuff like 500lbs springs inthe front and any where form 800 to 1200 lbs springs in the rear with a large sway bar, this defintaly will make the car loose and rotate very fast.

 

I have man and it fuggin sucks.

 

too be honest, I had more problems with snap oversteer back when my civic was bone stock (with worn rear suspension bushings) than I do now 380f/400r springs, 21mm swaybar front, 22mm rear.

 

Only snap oversteer I ever felt was in a rear engine car, porsche and VW. Lift off the loud pedal and watch out! If you pay attention and know how to drive even moderately well, you will be okay. Your dollars would be better spent on a driving course, IMHO. Learn to get the most out of what you have before making any big changes.

 

You have never seen/experience lift thottle oversteer on a FWD Car???? It can happen very very easily, of course I see it a lot on track and at autocross's I saw it once on the street.

I will still stand by this statement, if you are not going to auto-xing or driving on track, the TYPE-R sway upgrade is too big of a risk, even with reinceforment kits they will rip out evetually espically with stock or low rear springs rates, so why risk it?

 

i'm safe from any of that, but the warning is welcomed to others.

 

i have the type r rear sway on STOCK suspention, and it feels great.... snap oversteer is mostly for the unexperienced.... dont panic and just floor your way out...

 

So does the risk of the sub-frame tearing out become lower if one does suspension?
