I think he means the front anti-roll bar. Different terminology in different parts of the world.

The best idea is to not fit it back on. The Nova naturally understeers and removing this item will give you a better turn-in.

Spacers for the anti roll bar - if you fit an XE, the anti roll bar won't fit so you need to fit spacers to the mounts to lower it, so it clears the underside of the engine.

These (http://www.chrisastleymotorsport.com/product_info.php?cPath=22&products_id=34&osCsid=d40882eaa0ff324bdce492aa1c7eae37) are what he means:

Chris Astley makes them from Alloy, not sure of the size though. If you've already got better suspension (considering it has an XE, I assume you've got suitable strength springs and dampers) its best to leave it off as MC said.

We are saying, do not re-fit the stabiliser... It makes the turn-in worse.
