it's really amazing what a piece of metal bar can do for your car!!! the stillen rsb only took us about 50 minutes to install it, and the car was totally transformed into a much better handling car..i readjusted my sway bar to right under the beam position today..that only took 30 minutes..
god i love my rsb!!!!

now i can't wait till i get my shocks!!

Did you have to modify the Stillen bar in anyway???? I've heard some conflicting reports about it not fitting right on a 2k1 and am not sure whether or not I would have to. I tried to search, but maybe I didn't search for the right words... Any ideas as to what to look for or as to whether the Stillen RSB fits perfectly on a 2k1 without having to make modifications??????? Thanks....

I have a 2K1 % Speed Se and the back end of the car is way too floaty on the highway at 100+ speeds for my taste. Is this what i need to stop the bouncing or do i need new springs or something? Thanks

2K1 Se 5 Speed Sterling mist/Frost leather, fully loaded, clears all around and Piaa Plasma HID headlights. Suspension on the way :-)

You could always slow down to a little more reasonable cruising speed.

yeah its a great mod. it took me about the same amount of time as you, and it was worth every minute. even takin that first turn out of my subdivision at only 10 mph you could tell something was different. the back end of the car just seems to squat in the corners instead of floating away at high speed. it does inspire more confidence into the car at high speed, but don't get too confident.

good mod though.

No fsb... your two choices are FSTB (front strut tower brace) or RSB (rear sway bar). I say get the RSB (FSTB at the same time if you can).

sorry for not giving you a reply for so long.
well, i paid $204 plus $10 shipping from my shop for my rsb. i think stillen normally sells the rsb for around $230 something(?)...
addco does make the rsb but theirs is not adjustable.
