i just installed my FSTB from Custom Maxima today... i love it. i never realized what a difference it would make!! the car feels much more "planted" and stable in turns...

i would have done this a long time ago had i known it would make such a difference. now i cannot wait to get my D2's in!!

 

sorry, but that's mostly in your head. a fstb alone would not make THAT much
of a difference. a rsb might, but not a fstb.

 

actually the rsb does less than the front... thanks to the solid rear end... and yes it makes a big difference (not in my head) the car flexes a lot less in the turns, feels much more stable.

i decided not to get a rsb or sway bar because most people say they are useless once they drop the car, unless you take it to the track. most people said that they were no where near as noticable as the fsb.

 

I'm gonna have to go with ihavea5sp by a landslide on this one bc i've done both and the FSTB is about 80% cosmetic...the RSB made a big difference even with my car lowered

 

I agree with you a 100%, I have both and when I added the fsb nothing happened, but with the rsb you can feel the diference... The rear solid axle is a piece of crap.. that's why Nissan got Rid of it.....

 

I will agree also. I have both and the fstb didnt do anything for my car. The RSB on the other hand made a huge difference even with my car lowered on JIC's.

 

Apparently the FSTB helps on higher speed turns like on and off ramps and on the twisties... but I've never pushed my car hard enough to see if I notice the difference... after having it on so long, I doubt I'll be able to tell anyway....

 

well i do a lot of high speed turns... and i notice it a lot. sorry but i will never get a rear sway bar. even my brother (expert mechanic and tuning god who loves to spend my money) told me not to get one that it would be a waste.

 

its not a waste..i have it on my maxima and it deffinetly reduced the body roll quite a bit

 

An RSB always helps, regardless of whether ya have an upgraded suspension or not, its just the degree to which it helps... maybe not so in other cars.. .but def so for Maximas, as many people can attest to....

 

If you're running your car on stock suspension and all you have is a FSTB. You haven't seen NOTHING yet. It's like a little crum of the entire meal. When you get a full lowered suspension, then argue with these guys here. Almost all of these people here are lowered with FSTB and RSB. If they all argue a point from experience, rather then what "he" said or "she" said, there MUST be a point.

 

Guys, he already knows it all...can't you tell?

Don't waste your time.....
