subframes on an 03 what are the advantages?

[htt760]

how much does it normally cost to weld these things in???? MM full lengths

 

[grimreefer]

I paid $150 to get mine welded in and painted.

Full lengths aren't going to make the car too stiff? I've got H&R's already and the ride is nice, but I don't want to feel like I'm riding on a flat piece of concrete on the road. I've never had SFC's before (had a '96 Cobra before this), so I may not be realizing exactly how the car will feel after them.

Not to worry; the ride actually improves with SFCs.

Definitely an improvement. The car feels more solid/responsive and less "mushy" now. The SFC's made a world of difference shooting through the canyons out here in the PRC too. :burnout:

I just got subframe connectors put on :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

OMG. I cannot even begin to tell you how big of a diff. they make. The car just goes straight. It's like a diff. car. :rockon:

thanks guys - the front end is so GD sloppy right now I can't stand it.

MM caster camber plates will improve front end stability dramatically. MM 4pt k member brace helps also and is a $100 well spent. i am still debating on a MM strut tower brace. HTH

Definitely get the MM lower chassis brace. I also went with the strut tower brace as well; no regrets. Also, don't forget lowering springs.
