why does reverse have the potential to hit the STB?

Wow I back out my driveway everyday and she moves just as smooth in reverse as she does in forward. I do believe is someones engine is vibrating excessively, they may want to consider racingline MMI so stiffen her up (I did but I only installed the MMI's about 2 months ago). And with the mods I have, especially the headers my engine tends to rumble more but still never had a rubbing issue and I'm almost going on 3 years since I purchased my Stillen FUSB. I did however have the Stillen brace custom polished.
Older picture before I did the manifold...

I hope that most of you are ok with everything but if some want to back out I understand, it has taken a fair bit longer than I had originally said

I swore this was posted some where else but I can't find it.
cut/ paste from nissanclub from 4/18/07
as posted on .org, the new sample received was welded wrong again!!!!! so I had to cut the welds and weld it. I sent it back and it was received by the company last night. I just have to wait and see what they say now.
the quality of the samples have been great but I think the person setting up the jigs must be new or something, cause this is stupid. The fist sample I understand as there were minor changes from the original, but the second sample was *** backwards.
the bar was recieved so I'm just waiting on what better be the final sample

Whatever. The $78 for the strut bar is ABOUT a weeks worth of gas for me. STILL, can't wait 'til they're ready, BUT won't starve to death in the meantime. Have you THOUGHT about selling the design to someone (e.g. like Nismo or Cusco)? L-T, I know, but just looking out for you, Taz...

I was wondering if anyone did the Front Strut Tower Brace and the RSB without lowering...I live in a place with a lot of potholes and can't lower the car but still looking for good suspension...will this FSTB and the Progress RSB WITHOUT lowering still make a good difference, or is it a lost cause?
