I'd suggest an aftermarket strut mount with spherical bearings before (or in conjunction with) an STB.

Re: just installed poly bushing all around

Hey ED. Judging from your upgrades and signature, it sounds like you have a pretty fun car there.

We offer the highest quality, Made in USA premium torque arms for your car at a fair price.

We also have some pretty awesome caster/camber plates complete with spherical bearings as JamesC suggests. The spherical bearing is housed in a trick adjustment block to allow you to easily dial in additional caster. These combined with a STB really tightens up the front end and lets you ditch the flimsy rubber strut mounts.

Let us know how we can help.
