ITR rear tie bar screws directly into the subframe. Non-ITR's have nothing in this location so you should be able to install it there. USDM ITR's don't have rear shock tower braces, but you can find JDM ITR ones at several places.

well this is some what correct...you need a BSQ mounting kit...unless you like rippin' the frame on you car do to the stiffness of the bar, you cannot directly bolt it to the subframe of your LS that would be bad...

"Aluminum strut tower bar [front]" - Yes. Direct bolt-on.


"Performance Rod added to rear cross member" - No...not unless you're into welding.


"Rear performance rod" - No...not unless you like to drill holes.




JDM Rear Strut Tower Bar





ITR 22mm Rear Swaybar

I would disagree with the front upper being a direct bolt on. It is if you have the set of attachement bolts, however on the LS, those holes are just plugged, and there are no studs there. On the GSR, there are studs, and the bar is a direct bolt on. In addition to the bar, you also have to get the bolts, since I would assume that no one is gonna knock their bolts out for you...
