Actually the 1st picture you posted (my nismo brace kit pic) is for chassis stiffening and is not for bracing as an engine mount. One goes in front of the radiator behind the front bumper, one inside the vehicle behind your seats, and one underneath your vehicle towards the rear. The Nismo brace kit and the engine strut brace are for different uses.
The bottom pic of the OEM strut bar is used for your engine bay to reduce vibration from your engine. It's the same as the JDM Nismo. At the moment the only other strut bar for your engine bay is the titanium one from Zele.
