I bought one from Mimo USA and it was exactly the same as a friend that bought his on eBay but for a lot less. So ebay would be your best bet.
Easiest one to find would be the type with bolts and thread on the ends, most common on ebay. Or you can get one made by Ultra Racing that's like the TRD ones that are solid, made to fit.

Like bigbird said, not much of an improvement and more of an engine bay dress up. Rear sway bar would be better if you're looking for better handling, the only ones I found to be readily available is made by Whiteline Racing and Addco.

RSB definitely makes a bigger difference (probably the best bang for the buck) but I did notice a change in handling after installing the TRD FSTB. Personally I found that it helped control oversteer but that's just me. Anywho, I'm happy with the TRD RSB and FSTB combo. I think it'd be best to look for a strut bar that mounts under the 3 bolts and is well constructed (ie. thick rather than some of the cheaper bars that look like they bend easily).
