Thx for the advice guyz! (re: fstb & rsb)
Well, I finally received my stillen fstb and rsb and installed both over the weekend. Like some others on the forum, I research the he** out of things until I'm convinced that the mod will not only make reasonable improvements, but more importantly, will have minimal negative side-effects.
Well, I'm here to say (no surprise to most) that the fstb and rsb combo's effectiveness is DRAMATIC! I'm so glad I acted on the advice of many. My car now has virtually 'ZERO' body roll. As many stated, the fstb was hardly noticeable, but the rsb was dramatic and a very welcome complement to the over-all drivability.
If you're at all considering purchasing these mod's, no sense in wasting time. YOU WILL NOTICE A DIFFERENCE! A very positive one

Must've cost a pretty penny for those parts, but as long as there's no problems, that's good to hear.

Yeh, it wasn't cheap. I picked em' up thru JR NISSAN, who I would also recommend. Saved me a few bux, and was very helpful and friendly. The install on the fstb was cake, but the rsb didn't want to cooperate. Definately worth the time tho!

Since I know you like the results and drive much the same roads I do...now I have even more need to get the RSB! As soon as some feedback on the Cattman install is available, guess I know what phone call I will be making!

I installed H&Rs on 2002 SE and not only car looks 100% better, but the it handles better than 2000 SE did with RSB on.(I didn't have H&Rs on 2000 SE).
RSB probably does work alittle, but rear of the Maxima is pretty solid already so there is no need for RSB.

Obviously, I don't think a simple rsb could possibly compare to H&R's...
Also, when I installed the rsb, the stillen instrux said to use 3rd and 5th hole on bar. This would put the bar FURTHER BACK than all the pic's I printed up off the forum, including the stillen pic on instrux. I (instead) used 2nd and 4th hole. Several threads I read had stated that the further forward the bar, the more the effect. By using the 2nd and 4th, I believe it put the bar at the optimal position. When installed, the bar was in the exact position as the stillen picture. I don't know why the descrepancy, but it worked for me...
