My experience with a B13 set up with stock springs and bars, ES bar bushings,
AGX (F:2/R:4), and a rear STB (from Mike Saiki):

When I added the front STB from Courtesy, the car did not rotate as readily as
it had before.  This change was very evident, even though I did not notice an
increase in rotation when I added the rear stut tower brace.  So, I suspect
that the FSTB is increasing the tendency to understeer much like a front sway
bar would.  This might not be exactly want you want in an autocross situation.

Hope this is helpful.
