RE: subframe connecters
Yep! The car aint gonna twist much when your only puttin down 200ish. Things really start to get messy if you hook w/out subframes, and are puttin down some decent power. You ever see an truck or van that looks like its goin down the road sideways? Thats what your car will eventually look like from twisting.

RE: subframe connecters
I have a back road where I live and I noticed that whenI start to get up past 100 or 110 that it "feels" like my front end wants to lift up. Will subframe connecters remedy that at all or do I need to install somthing else? Thanxs for the helpguys

I am suprised you guys felt no difference.......I installed UPR full-lengths, had my buddy weld them in......and WHOA, I felt a big difference.
The entire car felt stiffer, launches felt more solid........all around, I was very impressed. Then again, your body style may make a difference too. An SN95 probably would not see as big of a difference as a fox with T-Tops

RE: subframe connecters
I asked a speed shop to install them - they said $250 ---.............screw that!! I don't have a handy-welder-friend of the many friends I have tho. I hear if you do it yourself you have to make sure the body is laying FLAT....so that the body isn't twisted when u DO weld them on.
