Handling?
What would be the best "bang for your buck" with handling?
I was thinking of gettin a stillen rsb for my 04' Max, would this b worth the $170 some that it costs? Does anyone have that?
And also what do do you guys have "handling" wise, that reduces body lean but yet still keeps its ride comfort.
Thank You

I didn't buy my coils from a site, I got them from a GB here on the org, look around the GB section..

I just installed Stillen strut brace ($168 shipped from Stillen web site) today and noticed slightly stiffer handling in the front. I am installing Progress rear sway bar and Progress springs this weekend and will be able to give you the low down after.

I have the Stillen FSTB and will be installing the RSB in the next couple of days. I am also on KSport coilovers with Toyo Proxes T1-R's.
People have said that the RSB is the best mod they have done....
Took a "highway merge ramp" this morning at 60 mph, was glued...and fun as ----!

Thanks for the info guys, but what is better? Progress sway bar, or Stillen sway bar, or Catman? and are there front sway bars out there for the 04'+ max, or is there only a strut bar for them right now?

Holy crap!! Just got my RSB installed and I will admit to being skeptical on HOW much difference it would make, oh it does. I only drove it back to work, can't wait to drive home and hit that freeway interchange again!!

I also have the progress springs and sway bar GD $260) and like was said, its very nice. With it you do not need to worry about any lean under 80mph or so on turns. The ride is NOT a lot harsher but just a little. The install is easy on this gen maxima too.
Im looking for a strut bar but why are they so expensive for this car? My third gen bar was like $40. I dont think its worth over $100, but maybe later I will.
