What's the deal with Courtesy FSTB?
I sent them an email a while a go and they confirmed that it works on 2K2. I called them a couple of days ago, to place an order, and was told that it wouldn't fit a 2K2. I sent a second email to clarify and Wic said it works. Then I called again and was told that it doesn't work on all 2K2. According to them, some have different brackets on the struts. Who is BSing me?

Courtesy Bar
I just installed theirs on my 02SE. However, I have to say the bar looks strikingly like the Japan Trust bar. It may be that the bar they originally sold (the one pictured on their site) doesn't work for the 02 but the Trust bar does.

No problem. My FSTB is made by www.courtesynissan.com , you can buy it there for $80. MY RSB is made by addco, you can but it at www.custommaxima.com or www.cattman.com . They go for about $130. These bars are the best bang for the buck, the stillen RSB is a little nicer looking but does the same thing my addco does.

i have it on my 2k2 and it fits with some effort.. however, i assume it rubs on my intake manifold making a clinging/grinding sound when the engine vibrates (hard acceleration, reverse) and it squeaks sometimes on hard turns so i wouldnt reccomend it if you havent bought it yet. Wait until nismo comes.. i am SURE that they'll have a strut bar for the 2k2 max... as for my courtesy bar.. i gotta take it off, it wasnt a good $90 investment.

I would recommend you rotate the bar a bit to the rear and it will not rub. If they raise the bar we will hood problems.
