I just got my XB

the bars all depend on you.
for me, i drive very swiftly up a local, quite twisty hill. on all stock, the only positive thing i could say was that the engine had good torque (read: terrible tires, terrible handling). after putting the tanabe DFs and both front and rear bars, the car tightened up very well. on a mid-speed section of the hill where i would understeer like a oil tanker, it wouldnt understeer anymore and would sort of go into a 4wheel drift because of the poor tires. finally, now that i have some super stickies on it grips like a mother. i have yet to grow the ***** to take the speed up to find the limits.
i hope my story helps. on a tight wallet, i might suggest going with the hotchkis set. instead of the front strut, its a front sway so it mounts on the bottom of the suspension rather above the struts. less sexy value, but more wallet value.
