or you can try Tanabe or Hypermotive.
APR is fine. about that problem - it was jsut that it made a creaking sound. all you need to do is place some sort of grease to keep it from creating sounds.

Got APR. No problems at all. Took 20 minutes to put on. Very noticeable difference in handling on corners with it on. Previously I only had TRD springs. I like taking on ramps, off ramps, and transitions on the freeway.

Believe it or not the APC strut bar is also plenty nice for our cars. It's designed extremely similar to the RMM, but like 1/3 the price. It's discontinued though, so you'd have to buy it from a private seller.

Sorry I bought mine used from someone on the boards   here's some pics of carbing though..  https://celicahobby.com/ubbthrea...&PHPSESSID=Hypermotive strut bar I wouldn't recommend  there have been some reports of people able to bend it with their hands.. though does have a nice bling to it Tanebe  rather get the APR since its almost the same price and comes with a battery tie down bar and has less flex points as there are no welds
