As for the rear bar recomendation, that comes from extensive personal experience. Most rear drive cars don't need a large rear bar.

The 3rd gen is a flexy flier, I agree. But I disagree the 4th gen is as bad as it's always made out to be. There are folks who have installed SFC's *after* a good suspension and noticed no real difference. I've even got a customer who took his SFC's off so he could run a different autox class and again noitced no real change (and again had a good suspenion).
I'm not saying SFC's are bad, not at all. I'm saying that folks use them to cover other inherent issues within the suspension instead of fixing those issues and not only helping the body, but handling, ride, response, getting rid of the floaty feeling so common to the car, and to some extent traction.
