Pretty much the same process for our GK5's. On mine, the teardrop-shaped metal piece with two holes was oriented differently but the process is still the same.

just tried it, the metal pieces was definitely oriented differently and it wasn't locked in just lift it up, but all in all same process. Took a whole 10min and looks great!

Bought gas for it, and, more importantly, checked out a slight light rear end "clunk" I hear occasionally exiting a driveway or someplace with a "lip" that ya drive off of to a level road …..checked the Progress bar, tight as a drum....turns out it seems it's one of the ends of my jumper cables wrapped around the spare tire bumping the spare tire well (I typically have a sock or glove or something on all 4 clamps, but one came off....am good to go....easy fix … yeah man)

I've used a Meguiars product for that, too, but I don't recall the name. They make good products.

Coilovers

Hi all
A lot of guys are really into the Progress sway bar
(I’ll get one eventually)
All in I’m looking at close to $600 installed
My buddy who’s way more of a car guy than me said
installing COILOVERS BEFORE SWAY BAR is also an option
cheaper too
My goal is to work up in price with upgrades
cheapest to more expensive
Anyone gone this route??

Progress RSB is less than $200. Even a cheap set of coilovers is going to be closer to $500.

Nice pic Evil

That’s 19 millimeter sway bar?

oh anyone have tricks of the trade to get out scuff marks on the interior plastic panels?
Looks like the previous owner moved white dinning chairs or something so there’s some scrapes etc
Products?

Ordered these bad boys
https://www.carid.com/powerstop/trac...-tdsk7032.html
and these fellas
https://www.redline360.com/goodridge...onda-fit-20114
Gonna get some Motul RBF 660 brake fluid and be ready for the track...
I called Coleman and asked them if they already had made a lightweight 2-piece rotor for the fit. they said they don't keep that info and to send in all the specs (I've seen the order page). They said I could send in a sample and that would be best. So, after pulling my old ones, I guess I'll send in a stocker and then see if they can build a 2-pc lightweight set for November HPDE... Gonna put on the mud flaps tonight and see if the Konigs fit without the second camber bolt, or rolling the fenders. I'll take some pics...

Any rotor and pad that will fit 92-00 civic with 10.3" 4x100 front brakes will work, same with 94-01 integra, and gd/ge fits i believe. Its all the same, same hub diameter and everything.

The sway bar is $200 and about an hour or less to install. Maybe $300 total based on $100 per hour service charge at a local mechanic shop or dealer. Coil over are $500 for crap and $2K for decent and up depending on budget plus installation. Unless you misunderstood what your car guy buddy was trying to convey, but if he actually said coil over are cheaper , and easier to install I'd find a new car guy buddy that knows what he's talking about.
