upper rear....

I didn't notice much with my rear strut bar...but I don't have a tie bar. I'd put my money in a Neuspeed front bar first (that's talking from experience).

BTW, its really hard to do a EX sway on an LX. You have to drill and tap the rear cross member. I have one that i haven't installed because of that. I'm gonna do it when I swap to rear disc.

I'd either save up and get an aftermarket sway or do a full rear disc before I did just the EX sway.

i have the rear tie bar, i like it, it made my rear end "sit down" better in turns and in handling in general. since you dont see it i bought an ebay one =).

[LX Rida]

save more money and just get both at the same time.

[oneoffaccord]

yea like he said^^^^^. the rear upper is going to make a difference seeing that the rear of our accord are very loose. also without a rear sway its just as bad.

i got a lower tie bar off ebay for like 30 bucks with that in it felt tighter going into corners and then i installed my rear strut and that basically eliminated all body roll, just go ebay you can get both for 60 bucks and its just as good as an 120 dollar one, just when u get the rear strut just make its straight from one side to the other, theres struts that one the part where it bolts down has a piece welded that makes it go up a couple inches then over, those suck ass it doesnt really do anythign cause too much tension is put on the back when you take a tight turn so just make your sure your bar is completely straight.....also a floor strut brace would be good too 40 bucks off ebay it bolts to your seat belts lower bolts on both outer sides of your seat this stiffens the mid section of your car

ok well i just bought a megan racing lower tie bar, i will get the upper strut bar in two weeks and the floor brace looks interesting but i have a family and i cant be stumbling over that shit while gettin my little boy in the back of my coupe, its hard enough as it is lol

Any updates.

I have an 90 ex, so getting a rear uppoer strut would help me? Are the ebay megan ones good enough?

[LinX]

yes it would. Ebay ones seem to be popular as they are cheap but actually work.

i have megan racing rear lower tie bar and rear upper strut bar and the lower tie bar doesnt do much as many will tell you but i feel as though the rear upper strut bar has "tightened up" the rear from squirming out on me

also megan racing is good quality its just as good as any DC sports bar i'd say
