Does anyone know about a rear strut bar that's available for the sedan. Do they exist at all?

Look in the suspension forum. There is a member that makes a FSTB. Stillen makes a RSTB.

Thanks, guys. You're awesome. Didn't think to look in suspension forum because I wanted it to be sedan specific. Thanks again.

But I think the Stillen RSTB only fits the coupes. Please prove me wrong, and I will buy one immediately!

You can get a lower front and a lower rear strut bar...They make a tremendous difference.

Sounds like the thread increased popularity and they had a run on them. I waited all of 2 days including shipping just 5 weeks ago. Sorry to hear you are waiting.

Question of the day: Would a lower or upper bar be theoretically better?

Def. upper, because of the unsupported gap between the towers.

Is a rear upper strut bar possible on a sedan?

It'd be tough.... & likely not necessary.
The lower one is the best bet.

The shock towers are directly in line with the back of the rear seat supports.
In other words, some bracing already exists.
(One advantage of not having fold down seat backs)

I want to see what the 4 point chassis brace will do. That ought to tighten things up a tad.
