It's a good fstb...same one I have had for about a year with no problems. There is a very noticeable difference going around tight turns.

Same as the one I bought. It was from Matrix. Probably sold under a variety of names.

It doesn't matter what brand it is...as long as its a solid piece of metal it will do the same thing.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I really appreciate it.

Where would be the best place to find a cheap Rear Sway Bar? I didn't see any for Maximas on Ebay when I was looking. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

I just bought it from the auction!
I hope to get it on there soon.
So, does the FSTB really make that much of a difference by itself?

Thanks for the link, Metallic. I guess I will just have to keep an eye on ebay or the classifieds for the RSB. I might just spring for a new one, if I get too impatient.

Do any of you happen to know of anyone wanting to sell one?

check out this forum in the classifieds...is this a good deal, and is it for the front or rear? I have not studied it a lot.

He gave you the wrong link. You are looking for RSB he gave you the link for RSTB for some reason. This is what you want:

So, this would be a good deal for a Stillen one? Or would you recommend that I just get one of the ones from custommaxima.com for $110? ( I want the cheapest, but best for the money.)

Thanks for the help.

Not a big difference...you should go through some twisties b4 you install it and do it again with teh strut bar. You will notice the rear end seems a bit more loose than before, but it's really just hte front end tightened up and theres a noticeable difference in the behavior of the rear and front of thec ar

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ha ha ha. True that!

Thanks everyone for your help. I talked to a guy that would sell me his for $90, but he is going to wait a couple of weeks to see if he can put it on his other car. (I figure that is a good deal for a Stillen one?)
