heres what i found, the picture is off a civic but i think the concept is the same, it bolts to the bottom of the control arms, i dont have a picture of the underside of my car but it might interfere with the front sway bar
The tie bar/ tie rod installs underneath the trunk between the rear axles or front axles, depending on whether it’s a front or rear tie bar.
Rear tie bar will fit, yes and it was made to fit the 2g Eclipse which by the way the 3G/8g platforms uses the similar rear suspension setup. As for the front, no, as it was designed as a different platform (hence the different engine/strut configurations). I'm talking about tie bar made of one bar like an underbrace.
You can ask COMPLX to make one but the way he hadled the 1st GB I'm not too sure about it.
revival:
I was on ebay and i bumped into these.

It is adjustable. if you can, try and get one that is a solid 1 piece. Strut bars that are solid, are better. If the bar doesn't have a spot to flex, it will be stronger and more efficient.
heres an example, this strut bar can be adjusted.
this one is non adjustable

This thread is about the lower front tie bar not the front strut bar
I searched around club3g and the holes fit fine. The problem is the exhaust flex pipe is in the way. I don't know if they found a way to fix that yet.
I know that, im just speaking for strut bars in general.
I cant see it helping much being that it probably mounts what, lets say a foot away from the main subframe? How much body flex is really going on down there that close to a giant double reinforced steel subframe? I doubt enough to notice. Its like the rear lower tie bar that mounts to the solid steel rear crossmember, purely cosmetic. Im not gonna lie I like the look of the rear one, but its all for look, not functionality. The old kit that company used to make with a bunch of underbrace bars would help because it braces more of the center of the car which isnt near the subframes.
