I recently did front AND rear sway bars… (22mm front, 24mm rear) drives like an entirely different car now!🤙

[@TURBOTRISTO]

It’s a massive difference

[@victorwilks88]

Every EK needs this 😮

[@TURBOTRISTO]

THEY SURE DO

[@ThatstaticEKHatch]

Sounds like it

[@ThatstaticEKHatch]

I got no sway bars and it's really really bad

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Jump on the whitline sway bars

[@austinnoble]

Yes

[@TURBOTRISTO]

OH YEAH

[@rafaeldomingo1258]

Thanks for making vid! Was deciding what sway bar to get.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

100% whiteline all the way

[@rushainperera6918]

HI mate just a question. Would the Whiteline rear sway bar hit the rear part of the stock exhaust? cz I have heard people saying that the exhaust needs to be modified a bit to fit the rear sway bar in Civic EK's.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

I shouldn’t hit the stock exhaust

[@wayneheng1413]

Hi Tristan. Where can I buy the d brackets mounts for the whiteline front sway bar?

[@TURBOTRISTO]

You use the standard ones or you can buy from the wreckers or from whiteline/superpro

[@miguelplascencia6093]

Hey so I have a kswap ek hatch does the front white line sway bar fit I have a integra front subframe with ekk2 mounts ? I heard you say it in the video I’m just trying to confirm 😅 I’m doing the rear disc brake conversion and bushing upgrade and doing a rear white line sway bar the next thing is front bushing upgrade and sway bar

[@TURBOTRISTO]

With a Kswap if you intend on swapping the subframe to an eg or dc subframe then you need to purchase a dc2 sway bar, the ek and the eg/dc sway bars are different, but yes you can k swap and keep the ek subframe it’s just a tight fit with the exhaust

[@robespinal6412]

Hi there. Looks good, a question? I have the some job to do on my ek9 and was told I need to also replace the drop forks as well as lower control arms as you shown on your video. Is this true ? Don’t think you mentioned drop forks to replacement as well. Thanks Much appreciated

[@TURBOTRISTO]

An ek9 type r? You shouldn’t have to upgrade the arms at all, and the drop forks should be left stock also

[@robespinal6412]

@@TURBOTRISTO No , it’s a US 1996 civic hatchback Dx model ( ek9 ). So as you did lower control I will also need to, I just read in a few post that drop forks will need replacement as well do to dx model. Thanks for the help

[@TURBOTRISTO]

ahhh in australia and japan an ek9 is a type r, but thanks for clearing that up the base model cars do need the arms upgraded to the higher spec arms with the sway bar mounting points

[@AbnerHernandez-we4yj]

hey brother I have a 2000 honda civic ex it has a problem the acceleration goes up and down I have changed the idle control and the throttle body and it doesn't work If you could help me I would appreciate it

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Spray some bake cleaner around the intake and plenium and throttle body when it’s idling to see if you have vacuum leaks

[@TURBOTRISTO]

If the revs go up when you spray the brake cleaner that means you have a leak and you need new gaskets or seals

[@ThatstaticEKHatch]

Im gonna die

[@TURBOTRISTO]

lol why

[@fouhadahmed3411]

Want to do this for my ek sedan..what’s the total cost for this including all the parts and labour? Im based in Sydney

[@TURBOTRISTO]

If you go to the whiteline website they list fitted cost inc labour

[@fouhadahmed3411]

@@TURBOTRISTO just checked it thank you..also enjoying your videos on ek civics. Still watching that bolt on breathing mods on the fluoro civic and can’t decide if i should do those bolt ons to mine

[@TURBOTRISTO]

@@fouhadahmed3411 you can it makes it a fun car to drive but still not fast I recomend a k swap always

[@fouhadahmed3411]

@@TURBOTRISTO maybe in the future but for now Im on a budget so just enjoying the single jingle😁

[@fouhadahmed3411]

Btw which one do you recommend doing first Coilovers or getting whiteline front and rear sway bars..I am using mine as a daily
