nah, you shouldn't need to.. but buy a few spare rear bolts just in case. apparently every single 1.6EL and every single 92+ Civic has the same problem with the rear bolts seizing up.
strut bars, front and rear, are a great suspension improvement as well.

Give it 2 weeks or so, so your springs can settle :)

I picked up a used set of KGMM DR2 SuperSport's for $200 (killer price) and some Tokico Illumina's for $640 (group buy price on TCC, PM Astroboy for more info)
So in the end it cost me $840 for my setup. Install didnt cost me anything because me and Matt (loudsubz) did it, plus we've been neighbour's for the past 13yrs.
PM Loudsubz for install prices if your interested in getting your stuff installed. His prices are way cheaper then a shop's.
