FINALLY! Rsb and Fstb on. Impressions!

I finally got around to installing my rear sway bar and front strut bar.
Installs were pretty easy once we figured out what we were doin.

I must say the car rides FLAT in the turns now. Noticeable difference.
Nice improvement for only $200. Money well spent.

I just installed mine also. It really does help a great deal. I didn't really believe al the hype around this fairly simple mod (and relatively inexpensive). It really does live up to the hype and thensome. BTW, which ones did you get? And have you thought about a RSTB? (I went with Stillen. and have been thinking about the RSTB just to finish the look).

Those are the first 2 things any 5th Gen Max owner should do. Hands down a day/night difference.

Well to answer your questions:

The rsb is from cattman (made by progress). It cost $110, shipping was like 20 bucks tho.

Thanks

Have not thought about gettin a rstb, hear its a waste of $$, plus it'll get in the way of future subs.

I installed the 'Courtesy Nissan' FSTB (installed a few months ago) and the Cattman/Progress RSB (installed last week). Both were easy installs and improved the ride. Tokico blues on order, will install before this weekend if they arrive in time (doing a Vegas run). No plans to change springs/lower car (been there, done that before). Looking forward to a spirited run through the twisties (Ortega Hwy in SoCal).
