I'm wanting to get a moderate suspension... and I saw some lower rear strut bars, and upper rear strut bars.. and i was wondering if anyone had one or the other or both, and if you could feel a differernce?

You will deffinately notice a difference witht he strut bars. Think about it you've got the struts mounted to the metal of the frame. They're connected to opposite sides of the body with only the body holding them in place. you get the strut bar. Installed. Now you've got this rigid bar holding the struts EXACTLY where they should be the whole time. you'll notice a better response and increased handling characteristics. there IS a reason they install these on the "sports" type coupes. (350Z is oone I can think of right off the top of my head that comes with them FACTORY).

appreaciate it... I knew they would help I have a front mount.. but I want to get front lower, and rear upper and lower... figured that if I can't be fast I sure as hell will be able to grip a corner... haha now does brands make a big difference? you think that "what you pay is what you get for" in this case?

Not really. The difference is going to mostly be in the type of metal they use. I'd say a decent known brand should do well for you.
