Default Rear (anti) sway bar and reinforcement

So, I'm looking to get a rear sway bar and reinforcement for my 93 civic. Does anyone have any reccomendations? I really wanted to only spend 200 bucks. But, everything I'm seeing that looks good it 300+.

What do you all think?

Beaks and ASR are very popular. just the Beaks reinforcement pieces is like $70-80 and the quick-swap kit is around $250. the ASR kit is about $200 and the ASR sway-bar kit is about $350.i have the Beaks SRK and havnt had any problems.

ASR simply because it's a better design and it's contacting the chassis at more points to imporve strength as well as better dispers load.

Progress Rear Sway Bar & Tie Bar combo. Fits your budget and I am extremely happywith what it has done for my 05 EX SE.

the 5th gen subframe are a little more ridged than the 6th gen+ subframe because the swaybar mounting holes are towards the inside of the subframe rather than on the very outside. the Beaks kit works just fine, i've put it to the test with 6 months of daily driving, about 10 races, and a novice autox schoolsince i installed it. if his were a 6th gen, then i'd lean a little more towards the ASR kit. tho i have yet to hear of any problems with the Beaks kit. best bang for buck IMO.
