Just ordered my parts from hondapartsnetwork total with shipping is 88.75 . cant wait to install on my ex-t coupe

Just returned from my friends garage, and the sway bar & D-brackets fit the 2017 Civic Sedan EX-T. It about 45 mins from start to finish. The D-Brackets were the PITA to install, but if you a silicone lube, they'll slide over the rubber. Just use a little..
A great mod for under $100 dollars...

Please take it out on a winding back road and let us know how it feels! I mean, thanks for the info that it fits; that's huge, but I want to know how much better it feels in turns.

 

[Fryer45]

Well where I live I don't have winding roads..... So far what I can tell from driving around the city, it feels stiffer not spongy.

Just installed a CTR RSB on my Sport. The job wasn't too bad; there were some hiccups along the way, but got it all figured out. Followed the Progress torque specs. Test drive revealed a much more stable and planted rear; while it can probably take corners faster, it feels less "fun". Will have to drive for awhile though to make a final determination.

What does "less fun" mean? I dont understand.

My parts order got cancelled from Honda Parts unlimited. Where did you guys buy it from?

Ordered mine thru G1parts.com

So I messed up big time. I've been waiting over a month for my sway bar and brackets and it came last week while I was on vacation. Opened the package today and realized I only ordered 1 bracket . Put in another order today but with my luck it's probably on backorder

Just finish installing mines. Havent taken any hard corners yet. Maybe tomorrow morning on the way to work. It diffinately feel more stiffer at the rear than what came with the Sport Hatch.

I end up taking the lower bolt off on one side of the the rear hub to lower control arm, this allow the sway bar to come out fairly easy( hope this helps those that struggle removing it)

I installed mine on my Sport hatch over the weekend and tested out some corners....drastic improvement and would highly recommend over aftermarket bars. (price savings + I would very similar results). Install took a little over 45 minutes. Most of the time was spent jacking the car up haha

Sorry to ask again what's the difference in size I have the Sport Touring.

Also the part number should be same right. Local dealer is selling for $155 CAN.

ETA us September 10 though.

Just ordered bar and brackets from G1. $95 shipped! Thanks for all the good info in this thread!
Plan will be to test at Rd Atlanta with NASA HPDE group 3/4 in Dec. I'll run one day with stock and one day with Type R.
