Well a forum member has a video up about the strut bar from tanabe, here is a link to the actual product. I have been meaning to ask Gearheadpete about how he likes the bar and what difference he has had with the bar

http://www.frsport.com/Sustec-Tower-...7TQaAgkH8P8HAQ


I believe the similarity is within the body but not the engine/transmission so that bar should work

Hi SRC350F - Yes, I love my Strut tower bar, and I recommend it highly. Here is the link:

It makes the front end not roll as much when going into a turn at a higher rate of speed.

Funny as you can buy it anywhere. Did you look at the link that was posted as it is for sale there for $132.50? http://www.frsport.com/Sustec-Tower-...7TQaAgkH8P8HAQ

The Tanabe strut bar is not offered in the RC350 anymore I'm not sure why but I had ordered the one for the GS350 and it fits. The only problem was the cover for the dampening that sits below the bar the cover wont fit and has to be wrapped some how to prevent from outside elements.

I've got a new Tanabe bar I could sell you if Josh doesn't have one. It's only been on the car for 2 months.

I finally got around to installing my strut bar today. The car feels a lot stiffer in the corners now!
