If you dont have them you need them, it made such a difference. If anyone is local to Eastern Ok or western AR I can get you the hook up with them, Ill post some pics ASAP.

what kind of subframe connector? theres a couple kinds that come to mind.

What is a subframe connector, and what does it do?

This is lifted from the Competition Engineering website:



Since the chassis is the backbone of the car, the "action" of transferring power into it must not result in the "reaction" of twisting and flexing. Therefore, the chassis must be as rigid as possible. Frame Connectors are used to connect front and rear unibody subframes, effectively making them one piece. This eliminates unwanted flex in the chassis and prevents it from absorbing the power needed for acceleration.

My MS Lower control arm stiffener just got into customs this week... but it essentially it does the same thing for the front end of the car.. Look to AutoEXE or Mazdaspeed for some nice braces if you want to beef up your chassis...its a must in drifting/road course racing the FC.. they are twitchy cars..but get them strong enough...and correcting mistakes in steering and acceleration is easier to predict!

I used 1x2 pretty heavy gauge steel. Cleaned all of the undercoat off of the frame rails, cut the steel to two 40 inch peices, used poll jacks to jack the car up in the center with the connector up their, (enough to where you could see the car bowed in the middle), then welded them while it was bowed. When we set the car back on the ground it was perfectly flat. My dash doesnt rattle anymore, doors shut better, and wheel hop was greatly reduced, I would recomend these to anyone.

along those lines i put a rear strut bar into my fc, and it made a big difference. car feels really tight and solid

Your mom is really tight and solid!

show us a picture of these subframes.

I have a front lower arm bar, connects the control arms together. I used to have a front strut tower bar, but after installing new motor mounts, the cheap e-bay bar doesn't fit. Darn, I'm out $6. I may actually have to buy decent front and rear tower bars.
