A question for those of you using the GTSPEC FSB

I am getting really annoyed with the constant squeaks, rattles, and creaks of my 07 G. For those of you using the GT Spec bar have you found that it has actually helped to stiffen the chasis? or is this a show piece? Also where can I find the best prices?

well it is by no means a "show piece" coming from previous experience it definitely helps and would be noticed by ppl who really drive their cars, im sure someone with the bar will pitch in but its worth th investment IMO from past.

Also to reduce body flexing rattles and such i would go with this PLUS the GT Spec lower tie bars which shoul dpretty much take care of the front of your car with those nice mounting/connecting points... also no need to get the tanabe lower tie, seems pretty useless with crossmember thee already...

I have the bar and I also have some GT Spec and Tanabe under car bracing. The car seems rigid and responsive and I haven't started to experience these rattles other than a very very slight buzz that is only on very rare occasions from the airbag pod, and I assume that one's from the removal and installation when I did my paddles. Usually, if I hear it, I'll just tap the horn area and it goes away. Other than that, no rattles and I'm on bad roads and dirt roads a lot.

Yeah guys, I am starting to get ratttles too and wonder if the GTSpec FSB would help. I am on stock suspension too. I am sure it would be worse for those of you lowered or with sway bars.

Well, I'm not saying it takes away rattles as I've had it on since the car was almost new, however I don't have any rattles, especially coming from the dash. I really just can't believe that this one part is preventing it tho, but maybe it is.
