Honda Civic Type One Sway Bar Upgrade — Less Body Roll, More Confidence
A sway bar upgrade reduces body roll in corners and improves handling confidence. 4M Car Care is an authorised Type One installer — we fit the correct bar for your model.
The Honda Civic's front sway bar bushing is a common wear item — clunking over speed bumps or during slow parking manoeuvres often traces back to split or cracked sway bar bushes rather than a bigger suspension fault. The fix is inexpensive and quick.
Bushing replacement vs Type One sway bar upgrade
OEM bushing replacement: resolves clunking and restores original handling. Cost RM80–RM150 including labour. Type One sway bar upgrade: replaces the OEM bar with a stiffer aftermarket bar, noticeably reducing body roll — popular on Civic FC/FE RS drivers who enjoy spirited cornering. Type One bars are engineered per-model; we are authorised installers. Upgrade cost: RM600–RM900 including parts and fitting.
