Search for an Otto FSTB. It is stylish and cheaper than the Stillen one.

you can use any bar on yours because you have a VG it doesn't have the height issues of the VE.
just be sure to get one with straight brackets rather than curved ones

I bought a FSTB on eBay for $7, look for one that is suppose to fit the 00-01 Maxima. It was good quality and the difference in preformance is incredible.

The 92 up VGs have clearance problems with the AC line so you need the straight up brackets like on the Otto bar (like internetautomar said). It might be hard to find a straight bar with the straight up brackets though.

That is why I say use the 5th gen Otto bar. You dont have to move a thing. Some people are not comfortable moving their AC line.

This is the exact strut bar I got for my VG and it fit perfectly. It was only $23 shipped. Just remeber to get one with straight brackets.
