depends on the bar, if you pick up a 25 dollar bar from APC than no, but if you want to pay for it, it has the potential to stiffen up the suspension quite a bit

By trunk bar are you meaning an actual trunk support brace or a rear upper strut brace?

yeah I have both e rear upper strut bar and a trunk bar. The rear end of the car feels like it has really stiffened up. I say go for a rear upper strut bar and later on if you have some spare time and ten dollars laying around go and make yourself the trunk bar that goes over the spare tire tub.

they both make a difference and a pillar bar would be good for a hatchback as well(at the risk of being flamed ).

I have front and rear upper strut bars, front and rear lower bars, and front and rear sway bars, after those were on for about a year, I added the J's pillar bar, and it did make a difference I could feel.
