When installing the Tower Brace Do you need to Jack Up the CAR?
Does the car have to be in a flat Ground?
How much torque does it need?

I just sprung for my first Mod, the Stillen FSTB (it looked so sweet in Kev's "Red Snakes" photo!), and it is scheduled for delivery in about 10 days.

Does the Stillen FSTB need any sawing or otherwise have to be manhandled to make it fit? Will the factory instructions be sufficient to install it myself?

No one has posted FSTB installation guidelines in the "Sticky' area at the top of the 5th Gen forum as yet, so I'm trying to gear up to install the thing. Any suggestions?

the fstb was the first mod i'd done on my car as well. it's a great starter i guess cuz it's so damn simple. the factory instruction with my courtesy bar weren't even necessary.
here's a link to what's involved. it's the courtesy nissan instructions, but they should be identical for the stillen.
