first one is rear upper strut bar (joins the rear strut/shocks together)
second is front upper strut bar (joins the front strut/shocks together)
third is front lower arm/tie bar (joins the front lower arms)
forth is rear lower tie bar (joins the rear lower control arms)

Those would most likely be the front and rear lower tie bars. They install under the car where the lower control arms connect.
_randeEe beat me to it!

no sway bar is another additional bar.... IMO sway bars are the most beneficial... but beware ... sway bars are dangerous without some components ... beaks kit and tie bars can be your best friend and save your subframe!

No, they aren't. Not even close.
A "sway bar" (a.k.a. anti-roll bar) is an active part of the suspension and works as a spring. A sway bar will make a noticeable difference in handling.
Tie bars and strut tower braces do just that, brace the chassis in key areas to reduce flex. They are not an active part of the suspension and so will not make a noticeable difference in the car's handling.
