i was just wondering if anybody out there has subframe connectors on the 3rd gens and how well they work!!!

 

alston termintor seris tublar welded SFC's

 

SFC's should be the one of the first mod's a person does to a 3rd gen.My recommendation is http://www.spohn.net/index.cfm?fusea...t&productid=31 .

 

I have Alston weld in subframes and they work great, i think they were $150 for the pair. Car was much more ridgid after the sfc's.

 

Anyone know a price on getting these installed?? Soon as the 6 spd is done its going right to the shop to get sfcs. I heard around $150??? Dunno what the going rate is.

 

All ya gotta do is put the car on a WHEEL lift, put the SFC in place, and run 2 welds. Should be a very cheap install. Just make sure they use a wheel lift, not a frame lift, because otherwise you put constant stress on the SFC's and over time it could cause the welds to break.

 

I have the Hotchkis weld on ones. Wating to get my motor/tranny installed before I put the sub frames on.

 

as soon as i get my motor installed(cant wait)i am heading to my buddys shop and he is gonna custom make some for me and also put in a roll bar.he builds race cars for a living

 

One of the first supension mods to make, it will tighten up the car. A difference as in night and day.
I went with the Spohn Performance Tube type SFC's. All good designed SFC's require welding for installation, stay away from any bolt on ones. My opinion

 

I bought and installed the Jegster bolt ins. I also replaced the rear control arms at the same time, since the front control arm bolt was the rear mount for the subframe connectors. They made quite a difference in the handling of the car.

 

This is not just my opinion on welded SFC's, but over time they will become loose.
