eliminating body roll....

[STOCKISTRICK]

i put a set of neuspeed sport springs to drop the car a tad, and stiffin it up a bit...it eliminated some body roll...however i want it to roll less. i dont want to fork out a bunch of money on coilovers...and i have the stock shocks on it right now. i was wondering if a front tower bar and a rear tower bar would help... i just want to be able to take corners a little tighter! any suggestions for cheap stiffening????

I don't want to, it's way too damn hot...and you know you don't hate me dude...why me?

You are not improving anything by retaining the OEM struts. Do yourself a HUGE favor and upgrade those. Get some Ground Control springs and Koni struts.

[!@#$%]

higher springrates
custom valved shocks
wider, stickier tires
performance alignment

maybe in that order for getting rid of only body roll.

By getting a front strut bar and rear strut bar those two wont do a lot in terms less body roll. If I were you I would get a new rear sway like the CTR rear sway or the RSX-S or the Progress rear sway?

Thanks,
Matt

The best bang for the buck rear sway is the 05' RSXtypeS, it is 21mm and only about 60$

good to know...is that dealer price, or junkyard price?

my .02, upgrade those OEM struts. You'll notice a difference right away.

change to better struts

Your aftermarket springs are to much of a drop, you rollcenters are going to be below the ground and your ep3 is going to handle worse than stock.....have fun being slow.

search for some posts by zzyzx. he explains why body roll is ok. people ask this all the time. so do the search.

i feel like we say the same thing in every thread. people dont want to actually have a car that handles well, they just want to pretend to.

[powdbyrice]

because we do.
1) people dont search or read past page 1
2) people think that having zero roll is what everyone else strives for
3) just because f1 or other race cars lack body roll, so should a street car

i think there should be a sticky: "why some body roll is ok." zzyzx or musty will have to author that one cause i certainly dont know enough.
