I am not even asking how much. I 've seen people list strut bar under their mod list. From experience i think they are one of the most cost effective suspension mod for a nose heavy car, like ours.

Can someone tell me where can i buy one?

Doubt it. Dont assume the Z32 and YJ32 share everything wes.

BTW my J with Hicas is pretty damn tight on the curves. A sway bar may help a tiny bit, but probably not much.

I beg to differ, I had a Q45 standard, and a Q45t with the small bar, and then upgraded the big Q45a sway bar in the rear...

It went from understeer city, to mild understeer, to fairly neutral handling.... IMO any rear sway bar is better than none!

sadly, no one makes one. I was actually going to make one from old ones I had, but haven't done it yet. I used to have access to a welder, but no more. The thing about the j is the hood clearance is very tight, as well as the strut bar needs to go a little more forward because the motor sits differently than the z's. The only real way is to just make one, and how it turns out pretty. As for the rear, none either. Gas tank is in the way from making a straight rear bar. Somehow, you can also custom fab one in the back if you can. If anyone will custom fab front and rear one, and mass produce them, let me know, because I'm lazy to make one.

cant find them.id look in some rod mags and see who makes custom.only prob with that is if it needs an adjustment and the car aint there to do it,well.little can of worms there.sucks i didnt get the oem bars back.i would have sent anywhere for you guys.you get more points to having custom parts in shows.if your into that.
