My sway bar is making a lot of noise

I put a 19mm suspension technique sway bar on my civic, my car is lowered with H&R Race springs, with tokico blues. The bushing from the sway bar is making a lot of noise when i hit a bump, is that normal, or do i have to lubricated it?

you should have lubricated it. That will take care of the noise.

I didnt have to lubricate anything, but I didnt have a ST swaybar either. It never hurts anything to lube something thats for sure.

If they were equiped w/ the Poly bushings , well my friend thats a by-product of it's longevity. The kit should have come w/ a small package of clear lubricant, looks like dieelectric compound.,but over time it will wash off with rain etc... and it will squeek! A quick but temporary fix, is jack it up (safely) and spray the bushings w/ WD-40 or PB Blaster, to include all, center caps and the end links. Also check to make sure the end links are assembled correctly and not shifted or over torqued so much they are tearing... Good luck.
