    Well, I got the lower control arms off an Si this weekend at my local yard. Just need to bolt them on and I'll be able to go after these or these. I'd take opinions and/or suggestions on which. I take it that the Eibach will probably be better, but they're also about $100 more.

    My friend that sold me the car told me that both front and back would make it corner as well as a Porsche. For $250-$350 that's a pretty sweet mod. I would ask if anyone knows where to get them cheaper if possible. I've trusted Summit and Jegs' in the past so I know I can go through them, but would like to save as much as possible. Oh and if I need to know about any other parts or modifications I need to make those bars work it would be much appreciated.

    First off the one link doesn't work (the one for the Eibach) since the one for ST comes up. I'm not going to search for it.
    I take it that this is the ST ones your looking at: part #876-52166, Integra 1994-01, Civic 1992-95, Del Sol 1993-97 (With OE Front Bar), 1'' (25.4mm) Front, 3/4'' (19mm) Rear for $239.99
    Now as to which is the best/better, deal, both are name brand companys, so you can't go wrong with either. I've heard nothing but good things about both. Both will give you what you want with the right spring/shocks combo. It's going to be a world of difference from what you feel right now.
    Best of luck with it and enjoy when you get it finished.

    Hopefully this will work better.

    Thanks for the advice Geo. I was reading around over at Honda-tech and was seeing some complaints about going too big on the front bar, promotes too much understeer. But so far I've heard more good than bad. If the suspension techniques is just as good then I'll prolly go that route. Unless I can find another of equal value for less that is.
