RE: R.S.T.B. vs. R.S.B....

The RSB (rear sway bar) is the one that runs behind the rear axle underneath the car. The RSTB (rear strut tower brace) is the one that goes in the trunk. The RSB is supposed to be more effective, however the combination should be the best of all. Just trying to help .

Actually I have both and didn't notice much difference with the RSTB. I would say get the FSTB, RSB, but skip the RSTB.

rstb

it does the same thing as the front strut tower brace. it connects to the shock bolts. what it does is box your suspension to keep your tires on the ground when turning. it gives you a bigger contact patch.

Isn't that exactly what the axle beam is doing?
