I've had my car with H&R Springs for a while now, but just recently added a FSTB! Man, what a difference, can't believe I didn't do it earlier!

Anyways, would I notice a big difference if I added a RSB and/or a RSTB to my 98 Max? The cornering has improved a lot already from having the FSTB, the car is much smoother, rigid and doesn't flex as much. Works as advertised, I got my FSTB from eBay for like $50 or $60 plus shipping. Generic, but does the job and no cracking or anything.

thanks for the help!

most people don't care about the RSTB... but for some reason I felt the difference when installed more than with my RSB.

I noticed a huge difference with the RSB when I got it, but I didn't get springs/shocks yet. I got the RSTB after I got the H&R/Tokicos and didn't notice any difference with the RSTB, except for less trunk space.

I've got Tokico/Suspension Techniques, O-Z Racing Monte Carlos (16x7.5), Michelin Pilot XGT Z4 225/50's, Stillen FSTB, RSTB, and RSB. My '95 Maxima SE corners like a slot car with very little body roll. The car seems to hunker down in the twisties and just GO. Say "syonara" to those stock Maximas.

Whoa! Nice hood ornament, guy.

is only noticable if you've got the rear sway bar attached under the car. The front strut tower brace makes a world of difference and if Nissan was serious they would include all three on the SE models. - However if you drive like a grandmother - which I do most of the time - you won't realize the major benefits. In normal driving it's far better. Mainly noticable on cloverleafs and wide sweeping exits.
The down side is in HARD driving the car can get away for a novice driver. -that's me- and it has happened -

Enough road space to get control when things start to get hairy. Know the car's limits- know your limits too.
