Well from the pictures, I dont think its a suspension strut tower bar...
I think its the reinforcing brace that goes in the boot.
Have a look in the boot, lift the carpet and see if you've two bolt holes on either side of the boot.
I've only ever seen the boots of Spec Rs but its just bolted on in the very rear of the boot in them.
You may have to tap and die holes for it if a Spec S doesnt have them

There are holes there in the spec S but they are not bolts holes, i think they have a plate missing for the bar to bolt onto.

You may need to get a plate made up, weld the plate to the car, then bolt the bar to the plate. Not sure how welding of the plate to the body would work though....
