New Stillen 2 piece strut bar for 02 Max

On page 67 of the April 2002 issue of SCC, there's a picture at the top of the new FSTB for the 02 max. It's a 2 piece bar. I wonder if it would fit the 00 and 01 since the 00-01 FSTB seems to fit the 02. Anyway thought you guys would like to know. I checked out Stillen's website, but of course it's not on there yet.

The ideal would be to mount the 2-piece bar on top of the existing STB. This would provide strut-to-strut support as well as strut to frame support.

Same thing I was thinking cause that's what it looks like.

To JJL I don't know if that procarparts FSTB will fit a 2K2 GLE. It says that it's only for a 95-99. I would probably try something for the 5th gen before a 4th gen FSTB. I know that custommaxima.com is suppossed to be coming out with some new FSTBs soon and they are pretty darn nice. So if you can, I would hold off for awhile. Also, those "cheapie" ones do the same jobs as the more expensive ones. They just don't look as pretty. Namely the courtesy one.

To alexis, a friend of mine just borrowed my scanner this weekend, so I haven't gotten it back yet, but if I can find someone else's I'll be sure to scan it for you.

I called Stillen today and they claimed no FSTBs were available for the 2002 Maxima....yet.

Someone needs to light a fire under their **** if they're already advertising.

Custommaxima is going to be offering Cattmans' new FSTB and Catback. I prototyped the FSTB in January, but I haven't seen the final product yet. It should be inbetween the Courtesy and Stillen FSTB price wise ~$120, but be of equal or better quality than the Stillen bar.

Just thought you would like to know what's coming out.

Is this the one that Greg was doing the poll in the general Maxima forum for? He had blue, polished and red? If they are, then those looked really nice and were the ones I was talking about above.

To leftcoast, kinda like APC and their spoiler.
