Default Subframe connectors?

It seems like they're are a lot of them out there. Are all of the weld in versions about the same?

No the weld ins are not all the same. There are many different shapes out there. Steeda are pretty small. Aside from going with through the floor subs Maximum Motorsports are probably the best.

max motorsports and HPM are good.

hpm makes the ones with t-bracing that the seats bolt to so you dont tear the sheet metal and get the "gangsta lean"

Max Motorsports has the seat braces as well. That's what I'm running right now.

Agreed.

Here are ours. We have a cheaper set with seat mounts that are about half as much as these, but these are the SFCs that I'd recommend:

Not sure what brand mine are cause they were on the car when I bought it, but they are full length with the seat brace. They look pretty beefy to.

Those are the ones I ended up ordering, but with the powder coating.
