What's the deal with FSTB and RSTB's ??
#1
So, I can tear around corners faster with these babies? Just kidding...but essentially that's what the gain is from these two parts? Is it as simple as bolting in both the front and the rear? Just a socket and ratchet and you're done?
Is it useless to have a front and not a rear, and vice versa? Do you ideally want both?
And what would be the difference, aside from price, in getting these parts from Courtesyparts.com vs. a Stillen piece?
Thank you!

i have the front only
and it is just bolt on top of your strut mounts..real simple..the rear i hear is a bit more complicated, i have not gotten that yet. it did help considerably in reducing body roll. as far as stillen or courtesy, the differences are strictly cosmetic.

1. Yes they make a HUGE difference in handeling.
2. Yes it that simple to install.
3. Get the front first & a rear sway bar before you get the rstb. I don't think the rear will increase handeling enough by itself.
4. The difference between brands for braces is visual & $. The rear sway bars are different. Stillen's is more adjustable than the Addco (and also more $).

The FSTB will make a pretty good difference in handling. The car no longer bends and the suspension ends up doing more work. Which is good. You will get a faster response from the car. Like when making high speed lane changes.. And the car will feel more stable in turns. As for the RSTB.. I think that it only really just tightens up the back a little.. I may get one eventually.. But you should get the RSB. Its like the FSTB, night and day difference. With just the FSTB, RSB and good tires.. You will kill a stock maxima in the twisties.. yes, I have tested this theory. =) You will hang with "sports cars" too.. =) Then sometimes it comes down to driver though.. =)
