I had a 13mm bar with Heim joints but found a guy on ebay selling JDM ITR 23mm bars for only $125 with bushings.
Didn't come with D brackets so made some up out of .125 steel & installed it today. Much better handling. The guy had over 100 of these bars. I thought they were maybe cheap copies but seems top notch & the bushings were sealed in Honda bags with Honda P/N's.

Removed all the under hood A/C parts & it all weighed in at 42lbs. I've never removed the under dash A/C parts. How much weight can I save doing that? need to crawl under there anyway to fish through my battery cable.

i assume this is the dc2 bar? because the dc5 bar is 22mm

Yes the JDM DC2 ITR. I learned that the US ITR is 22mm, the JDM is 23mm I measured this bar & it was 23.1+/- with the paint. Just can't get over how it transformed the car. Corners better than my seat can hold me & tires can hold now & got rid of the understeer & can actually rotate the rear.
