I don't know much about sway bars and tie bars, but I can tell you one thing. If you get a front lower tie bar, you're going to scratch that thing up like crazy...that is if you're dropped.

had my front underbrace for bout a week now, and no scratches yet (knock on wood), am lowered on h&r sports. I currently have Tanabe front and rear underbrace and front and rear sway bar. I put them on 1 at a time with a week and a half duration between installs so i can feel the difference each piece made.

The rear sway was the first and it gave the car oversteer if i jerked the steering wheel. Nex was front sway, which some ppl say gives understeer, but i dont think so. it gives more stability thru the turns. some say tanabe made the front sway too thick, but i think it's cuz the engine is at the front, so more bar for more weight.. iono... Next was rear under brace, and that dint really give more oversteer, but it made turns more stable. The front underbrace made turns more stable and also more responsive. feel free to add anything else if yall want

can you post pics of the front Underbrace and also tell me where you got it.

I have Suspension Technique Sway bars front/rear and Neuspeed Strut and Ebay Rear strut and all i can say that the car is a lot more stiffer in turns. I also have Koni Yellow so i can adjust them either for more understeer or oversteer. But i try to set it up neutral that way i can control the car more in turns.

All these things make a difference. But alone they dont really do much.
