CROSS MEMBER BAR and strut tower bar

this bar on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CROSS...Q5fAccessories looks interesting i get the concept but the question to the guys out there you think this would make a difference? I also have a strut tower bar that goes for the front of my gen 4 but im gunna fabricate the brakets and install in the rear since i have a front one already
anyone custom their own rear strut tower bar?

ive seen these but the ones that make any real differance are the ones designed specifically for the car. im sure it would help a little but not much. not to mention it is anoying having that by your feet if your sitting in the back. but i guess it depends if you have passengers in there often.

what would be better would be upgraded rear and front sway bars and the Ultra Racing front brace. ive herd wonders about that thing...hangs a little low though.

thats more like it.

now most of us start with an RSB...either TRD or whiteline. the whiteline is thicker then the TRD but the TRD has two settings(why i dont know) which makes it either stiffer or softer then the whiteline.

i cant remember seeing someone with the addco rsb but i have seen quite a few with the fsb. and they were pleased. but the fsb comes with a catch that remains a point of discussion. the has been said to increase the understeer. but over all handling is improved. though i can tell you anotehr member(megamac83) has been very pleased with his fsb upgrade.
