Think about getting a TRD/custom/copy of the TRD front 3point strut brace... there good on tight turns

the 2 point is mainly to strengthen the lower wish bone (lower arm) where the 4 point is to strengthen the whole lower structural area (like the lower arm and the area just where the rear engine is to the actual chassis area)... if you know what i'm trying to say...
when you fit these it will make you car about 5cm lower... i pick a lot a paper drink cups from mcdonalds.... and sometimes coke cans too... so it can make the car too low if you have already lowered it....

also what do you mean by rear stabilizer?? you mean the rear sway bar on the bottom or the rear tower bar which sits on top of the suspension mounts...

ok those are also known or called sway bars... i would recommended to get front and rear ones...
if you just get the rear bar then the car will over steer more and if you just got the front one then the car will under steer more...
so it's better to get both so the car is more balanced during corning...
but i think the cusco ones have adjustable sway bars where the trd is fixed type...

trd do non s/s front ones, but I wouldnt bother to much as ur stock front is 25mm (s/s is 24mm)throw some urathane bushes in.

The back whiteline do adjustable ones, set to solid yea the back can over steer abit :D all good if u wanna fwd drift, I now have it on MED and its a good balance with stock front, stops all the understeer into curbs....

I may be wrong, but when I had a Mazda 323, our whiteline stuff came from Demon Tweaks. As whiteline is in au, this saves you getting bitten by import charges also. Give them a call, and let me know how you get on ;)
