almost any B13 parts will work. the only places you'll find difficulty is the rear STB and rear sway bar. b12's have a different setup for the rear swaybar than b13's. instead, grab the swaybar fro a KN13 Pulsar SE (pulsar's with CA18 and CA16DE's).

as for STB's, there are both front and rear. Horsepowerfreaks.com sells the b12 cusco FSTB for the best price, and you can get the b12 rear STB from MyNismo.com.

as for front sway bars, there's whiteline, suspension techniques, and progress, as well as the option to using pulsar SE and b13 SER sways to upgrade. progress is the best aftermarket one, as it uses heim links to prevent binding, and is also quite a thick bar.

for LCA braces, theres the progress bar (3point) which is cheaper and effective, or the whiteline bar, which isn't much more expensive, is stronger (4 point), but on some cars there is a good chance of rubbing on speed bumps..

B13 KYB AGX's with Roadmagnets. sits a little too low for my tastes right now (scrapes on some speed bumps), but i'm on my 13" winters right now. when i get the 15's on in the next month we'll see how it goes.

i have a progress LCA brace that will be here in the next couple days, and will be getting the front sway bar as well. i have a sportcoupe, so it already comes with a rear sway bar thats almost the same as in the Pulsar SE so i won't be swapping out unless i can get them cheap.

Are they first gen road magnets? I've had both and the second run forward sat higher and worked great for me (in b13s). Could be the B12 though. I had a B12 w/ CA18DE when I lived overseas and I loved it when it wasn't blowing headgaskets.

currently runnign the stock one, which is again, better on a sport coupe than a regular B12 sway. very shortly i'll be running the B13 progress Sway bar. people have ran the B13 whiteline bar no problem on B12's. i'm using the progress because its better.

they're V2's. i'm pretty sure its the B12/wheels/tires (still on my 13" winters).
