Re: strut bar? (dbobby2b)
Just make sure you get a solid mount, most generic ones use a swivel or some kind of adjusting bolt which usually flexes under pressure. I'd look into one from Explicit Speed Performance. 
EDIT: I wouldn't spend money on a strut bar until you upgrade the suspension.

You will see more of an improvement by switching shocks first. Then maybe increase the size of the rear anti-sway bar. Then maybe do bushings or strut bar. The BB6 is already a stiff chassis so I wouldn't start there.

Like others have already said, I would replace the struts & springs before getting a strut bar. However, if you really want one, you're in luck.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW This is the first time I've seen a Neuspeed on eBay.
or
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW Type S strut bar is nearly $70 cheaper
But, if you get the Type S bar, you require the Type S shock absorber mount (with 5 bolts, instead of 3). They are tough to find, and I'm still looking myself.
