tho not an STI, there is often discussion about the rear seat bar in the RB5 being a brace

You don't just get those in RB5's. I have the same in my 95 WRX. It's not a strut bar as far as I am concerned. More a restaint to prevent intrusion into the cabin from projectiles in the boot in event of accident? Also strengthens the rear seat from bending sagging.

No, but you may have been able to buy an STI accessory
