I asked what everyobdy thought about subframe connectors and i got an overwhleming response saying that they are a very good mod. So i am now convinced to buy them, but now it comes down to which type bolt-on or welds? i have heard that the bolt-on aren't very good but i also heard that they work just as well as the ones you weld so im in a delima which one should i go with i would rather go with the bolt ons becasue i rather do it myself than have somebody weld them on for me! What do you guys think???????

 

Pay the extra money and have the SFC's welded on. Forget you even heard about bolt on ones.

 

I agree 110%

 

The bolt holes "oval out" after a few thousand miles and the SFC's are doing very little at that point. Have them welded. It is the best way to go.

 

check at www.thirdgen.org for opinions, some bolt-ons fit better, and you can bolt them on at home and then take it to an exhaust shop and have them welded, I just ordered some bolt-ons from www.alstonracing.com that I will bolt, then weld onm

 

Get whichever kind you like, but either way have them welded.

 

Ovaling holes out is nonsense if they are properly installed.... If you want the bolt in ones, go for it. They can always be welded in later if that spins your crank, but bolt in ones will not just up-and loosen up if they are torqued properly.... Don't believe me? Just think about how much of the car is put together with bolts, then think about how often those bolts loosen up and oval the holes out, and get back to me......

 

albeit the car's put together with bolts, none of them experience the strain that subframe connectors experience. you can get the bolt in ones and check them in a couple months for elongation and then weld them if necessary

 

I went to http://www.alstonracing.com:8080/index.agent and got them there. They were the bolt in kind which I had them weld in. fits like a glove and no problems with it. Highly recommended, IMO

 

aklim, you like those alston bolt-ins alot?, good, mine are on the way, should be here any day
