The steel frame is 20lbs versus the stock Sti frame at 30lbs!

The Chro will obviously be lighter still.

First feed back from a installed subframe and links.

I'm besides myself!!!

It's awesome, the rear end feels so solid and predictable, I feel like I can start
putting power down earlier with much more confidence without feeling the rear end
squirm and want to step out. The transfer of power is direct and immediate and the
car just grips

very nice...upgrading to adjustable lateral links is on the list later this year. I wish I could have pulled the trigger on the subframe last year, just didn't happen.


I currently have the non-adjustable STI ones, which were a great improvement over the stock WRX ones...I'd like to see how these feel w/solid spherical ends instead of the bushings.
