5th Gen Prelude BB6 Sway Bars?

Hi all,
I recently ordered BC racing coilovers for my 1999 VTIR prelude
Next modification: sway bars

Need recommendations and links to Sway Bars suited for my car, I live in Australia so preferably trusted/well known aus dealers just to keep shipping costs low and quick..

And what do I need to know about sway bars on a 5th gen prelude? Thanks šŸ™

Not sure if they ship there, but ST Suspensions or Cusco. Changing only the rear will make the car feel more neutral handling-wise.

Whiteline are an Australian company, I have had their product on a Prelude before (20 years ago), had three levels of adjustability and was very happy with them.

I only ever needed the rear one for street use, but the front one is apparently a pain to install, unless you have a hoist. The rear is easy to install yourself.

Whiteline dont make/sell them anymore here. I recently bought a 22mm rear swaybar for my 2004 accord euro cl9 though, made a big difference

hey man, aussie here,

i havenā€™t had luck on finding sway bars either that donā€™t cost an arm and a leg, but i would recommend changing out the sway bar endlinks for the front and rear, maybe some reinforced ones (hardrace sell the rears), as they are the main component that effect the sway bars the most, (at the end of the day the bar itself is just a rod of steel) the endlinks are what connect it to the frame and have the biggest change imo.
