I was wondering, which is better? I know a lot of people here like the bmr weld in sfc but what about the slp set? They bolt in but also contact more points than the bmr which would seem to me that it would be more sturdy. Is the bolt in as reliable as the weld ins? Thanks.

 

Flip a coin my friend, you'll get so many pro's/con's for the same thing.
Soooo, here's my "pro" for the weld in SFC's...
Weld in SFC's just made sense to me. They're welded on, and that's it, I don't worry about them anymore. With bolt-ons, you may or may not need to re-tighten the bolts every so often. Some bolt-on SFC owners say that every time they have checked, the bolts were still tight, so there you go again.
I love my LGMotorsports weld in SFC's, they are probably one of the more expensive SFC's in the market, they are worth the $$.

Enjoy!

 

I have Spohn Performance weld on SFC. They are powder coated and can't be seen from the side. See pics.

 

FYI,
SLP makes the same SFCs that are weld on. They're actually a bit cheaper too.

IMO, unless you're into autocross, all that cross bracing is over kill.

 

Wow, I didn't notice how much cheaper the weld ins were compared to the bolt ons.

I'm looking for the chassis to be more ridgid and eliminate some of the noises created by flex in the chassis. It might be overkill but I might one day decide to try autox. Maybe not, but I like overkill, you might not always need it but it's there when you do need it.

 

If you're planning on doing autox later, then I would suggest you talk to Sam Strano, he'll give you information regarding this...The reason why I'm directing you to Sam is that, with our f-bodies, if you plan on doing autox and have SFC's, you are put in a modified competion class, and everything trick that's out there is on these cars, you will not be competitive unless you spend bookoo bucks and seriously modify your chassis and suspension, AND, you still may not be competitive. So maybe the bolt on SFC's will be better for you.

Ya, that would suck to compete against modded cars when yours is basically stock.

 

if its just for fun, whats it matter...... get weld-on and be done with it. they feel great on the street
