The Porsche ones do look like the best option however, two pints raise themselves:
1) Why is a 24mm one required? that will have the tendency to promote significant oversteer without a compensating stiffer bar on the front.
2) If you need to adjust the bar then either fit a blade type bar or alternatively a plain ended bar with aclamp fixing that will allow fine adjustment.

I fully agree with that. The front will def will be upgraded also. Fortunetly aircooled.net still has the front 20mm blade adjustable bars in stock. The car currently has the tendancy to understeer, and I would rather have it oversteer. How would I go about mounting a 944 bar to my rear suspension? Is there any tutorials out there or pictures? Can anyone take pictures of there own setup? I do realize that the rear suspension is very similar and trailing arms and brakes are reasonably easy to swap. I do not want to do so because I am happy with my setup as is.

P.S. I am very capable in installation of the bars.

Hi,
Pm me your e-mail address and I will send the photos of our set up with a 14mm rear Porsche bar. On our installation it could do with bigger brackets to space the bar further from the torsion bar tube but it does work in this format. FYI the rose joints are kart 10mm steering joints that were dead cheap at around £5 each. Check out also the rear AR bar on the Japanese Racer on this website.
