Neuspeed Rear Tie Bar
I am already getting the Neuspeed Front Strut Bar but i don't know whether i should go ahead and get the Rear Tie Bar made by them or not. Does it make that much difference and is it worth the extra money?

What tie bar do you mean?
Do you mean the rear upper strut/tie bar or the rear under tie bar? I don't think neuspeed makes a rear upper strut bar.
A lower tie bar does squat for handling. It braces the chassis and control arms so they don't break under pressure. You may not even need one. It is suggested that a sway bar 20mm+ should have one. The neuspeed tie bar i think is way to expensive and not worth it when a generic tie bar will just do as well. But I know alot of you like to stick to the same products.

Rep Power: 412 Cusco would probably be the best rear strut bar.
Screw the neuspeed sway bar combo. Progress is just as good and more than $100 cheaper!

Rep Power: 0 Just know when you go Progress sway, you will need <EDIT: I meant new>endlinks. Grey is making some new endlinks for sale. Reason is the Progress bar is too rigid for the endlinks during cornering.
I think the RSX sway bar is good enough, but I'd rather get the Progress for more performance. Only if it didn't break the endlinks. So I'm going with the DC tie bar and RSX sway.

Rep Power: 412 Cusco has a rear upper strut bar. PM boilermaker01, he has it. There is a picture in his bio i believe. Yes anything 20+ may break your stock shitty endlinks. Hotchkis also makes a set available now but they are mad expensive.
