as for fittment, you need the GT3 bar & bushings, but you also need adjustable drop links; the stock links are too long. they're available from Tarrett or TRG. i also have a couple of sets if anyone needs some (i made extras).

the rear GT3 bar from the 996 will not fit the boxster. i've found that the H&R rear pairs nicely with the GT3 bar for a base boxster. for the S, use the rear M030 'Base' (not s) bar. the H&R rear is a bit too stiff for a boxster S; you'll have trouble putting the power down out of the corners (unless you have an LSD).

Insite, in the past you suggested the M030 "S" front bar with the M030 base rear bar. Now that you're currently running the GT3 front bar, and H&R rear bar, what are your thoughts/feedback on the driving experience, handling, and ride feel between these various setups?
