Couple questions...

1.) Any mounting/install hardware needed?
2.) Is this good for an 02 SE?
3.) How much of a difference is this from the Stage 2?

If the answers are good, consider me first dibs, money pretty much ready.

Here's my $0.02"

1.) Any mounting/install hardware needed?

They attach to your LCA FRONT bolts. If you are an auto, you have to lower your
LCA first ( because the auto transmission is in the way of FRONT bolts) by loosening
the four bolts on the LCA.

If you are manual, they just bolt up to the FRONT LCA bolts. When installing, the
wheels should be loaded to maintain a neutral balance.

2.) Is this good for an 02 SE?

Yes, you can read up on the benefits of LTB. It tightens up the steering in the front
and has a much BIGGER and BETTER benefit than a Front Strut Bar. (PS. I'm selling
a SFC too - look into that if you would like to have a more controlled chassis)

3.) How much of a difference is this from the Stage 2?

Depending on your application, I've read numerous posts about stage 1 vs stage 2. I
think that if you are a daily driver like me, you won't see the major difference. Stage 2
you can lose more ground clearance. Plus its more $$$ too. Stage 2 has more bracing
towards the rear. Personally, you're better off with SFC for Chassis bracing vs Stage 2
SFC.

Let me know if anyone has anymore questions.

Awesome. Thanks for the quick reply. Any reason for the sale?

Sad to say....I'm leaving the .org

I never had a chance to put this on as I was planning to get my JIC -FLT-A2
installed, SFC, and LTB... all together with my g37 19's.... that would have
been so HOT. BUT sad to say, I'm moving overseas in 2009 and I'm selling
my beloved parts and car. Just my g37's are on.

Stay tuned for the following stuff to hit the market...
