Usdm ITR's come with a 22mm. And jdm ITR's come with a 23mm. You can buy the 22mm straight from acura pretty cheap. Ive bought a few of them.

Depends on what size front bar you are running. The thicker the bar, the easier it is to make the ass slide.

ok, thanks. i just got done checking mine and from end to end with out being attached is 39 3/4" but when its installed its more because i had to stretch it. but if yours is 41 3/4 then its longer i take it. thanks for the info.

does yours connect to end links then the control arm or right to the control arm? my 41.75 was from bolt to bolt on the control arm. the bar itself was about 39.75
