YES, My VE max was on eibachs/tokicos, with the suspension techniques front and rear sway bars, but it had no fstb. My vg on stock suspension with monroe shocks and fstb felt way tighter through turns. I bought one for the VE and all the other suspension mods really came to life. You've got the GXE so any 89-94 fstb on ebay will fit. I think its like 22.84 out the door for the ones i bought.

Its amazing how flexible the chass is. How it affects all variables, who is able to explain? If the bar now stops strut tower bend in, then before it, my hood would have bubbled out long ago... But no, nothin visible before/after: just incredible cornering speed increase.

And all with DIY 75c...
