Subframe connectors, which brand?
Hi everyone,
First post since I've gotten my Z28 5 months ago... kertong has been bothering me to post. Hi kertong.
Anyway, I am finally getting around to purchasing some subframe connectors. My boyfriend with a 2000 SS has suggested looking at either BMR or Global West tubular SFC. Anyone care to give me a breakdown of pros/cons of each? Or if there's another recommendation?
Thanks!!

In terms of tubular, just about all the respected manufactureres out there will offer the same benefits. The thing to look out for is cost and whether or not the SFCs sacrifice any ground clearance.
We too offer ours. Many have bought them and love them. Our do not sacrifice any ground clearance at all. If you have any additional questions, feel free to email me. I'll be happy to answer them.

I just ordered BMR SFC's and STB. My friend has them in his SS and loves em. They're the cheapest I've seen.

Go with a set of SFC's from DMS. It has the quality of premium SFC's at a fraction of the price. That's where I ordered my set from.

DEFINETLY go with the DMS subframes.
They are a better design that provide A lot more ground clearance and weigh under 20 pounds. I had these installed about 2 weeks ago on my car and I still cant believe how much more civilized my car takes bumps and handles, plus a lot of the squeeks and rattles went away too. My car is lowered about 3/4 on and inch and I have no ground clearance issue at all as a matter of fact you have to get on your hand and knees to see the Sub Frames and even then it pretty hard to see under the car. Plus this is a great company to deal with Especially Eric he answered all my questions, gave me a great price and even provided a tracking number when I asked...After noticing the Difference in the way my car handles and rides, this should have been one of my First mods...check out what i have done in the sig.
You CANT GO WRONG with DMS SFC.
Hope that helps,
