Default asr subframe/itr sway bar install Q's

So i wanna install a itr 22mm rear sway bar in my HatchEg. The point is to reinforce and provide better handling/cornering than stock. Reminder: this is a daily driver, street car. no drag, no racing etc...

So do the Question is: do i need a ASR subframe (about 200$ via ebay)? or does the need for the ASr subframe really come into play when u drag/race ur car only?
Ie for daily driving, is the install of a 22mm rear sway really likely to fuck with/twist the car's frame?

Context: this is a car i am planning on keeping for a while. It's my dd and i enjoy riding and having fun with it. notin crazy. I guess if i can avoid the 200$ it will cost me to get the subframe, i can invest that cash in something else. but if i'm likely to mess up my frame wihtout the ASR sub-reinforcement, then i'll just go ahead and by the damn thing.

what do u all think?

I have seen the rear subframe tear away when going from stock swaybar to a ITR swaybar. IMHO buy it and save yourself a headache.

I use a rear ITR sub-frame. I will take pictures next time I get a chance. For $200.00 you cant go wrong

yes. non-ITR is not so lucky.

without gettin the ASR, u just need to make a mounting bracket for non-ITR subframe. its cheaper and just as effective.
