I bet that thing would make a heck of a difference combined with some solid motor mounts.

Beware.......In my humble opinion. If you buy the A-Spec or Autobacs1 strut tower bar, your pissing your money away. Unless you just want it for the plates, and even those suck. Shitty quality, extremely light weight, and won't amount to **** for lessening the little bit of body flex an FB has. I just hate to see anyone get screwed on what would "appear" to be a good deal.

i guess it would be cool as a template to weld ur own bar. i must admit tho, the base does look like stamped sheet metal. if anything u can still try to reinforce it by welding on thicker metal to it.
