Either. Neither will provide a noticeable difference by itself.

I enjoy the DC strut bar, but there isn't much of a noticeable difference, but then again as a 4 cylinder Na car, most mods by themselves (especially at the $100 range) wont make a noticeable difference, wont see much of an improvement till it all comes together. As for recommending parts, what are your goals with the car? What do you want it to be for?

So what if i bought both? would i notice a difference then? Its mostly for spirited driving (there a nice off ramp on the way home) and the occasional drag strip. I hear the back of the car is braced pretty well besides everyone going with the rm sways.

The rear is okay, but you should deff. look into getting a LOWER rear strut bar, on one forum, the OP said it really made a hell of a difference. It's about $40 for an ebay one!

So the company on ebay bailed and refunded my money for the underbrace but I put on the strut bar and I can feel a big difference there is way less body roll in turns.
