i've got the rsb/fstb setup now. pretty cool. not as night and day as i would have expected, but there's certainly less body roll.
i had the stillen guys install it for me at maxima day just so i could drive it home. is the rsb in the stiffest position when it's mounted on the holes furthest from the ends??? i don't know if that's just a 'normal/moderate' setting they used.
if i could go stiffer, i'd like to try it out.

thanks guys... and gals

When I did it, the instructions said to use the 3rd and 5th holes (at the end). Did Stillen use the 4th and 5th holes for you?

That should work for you. I've always wondered why we had to use holes 3 and 5. Must be some logical reason behind that.

I have messed around with the RSB settings and have found that the RSB works pretty well for me when it is right under the rear axle.
