ok, so i recently realized my subframe is... well for lack of a better word, garbage and now im working on getting a whole new subframe, i am curious though, is the s13 subframe the same as the s14. im not going to lie, im a rookie as far as wrenching on subframes... i appreciate all the help, thank you

The rear subframe is different. I have heard that the s15 subframe can fit the s13. Don't know if there is any modifcations needed.

What is wrong with your subframe?

s13 and s14 are different. im 90% positive the s15 and s14 are the same though.

I know "Vutony" (sp) was selling one not that long ago. He is in Garden Grove.
Or go to pick a part in stanton or anahiem on a 1/2 day off sale.

well, recently i took a drive to buena vista and felt my ass swaying around a whole bunch... turns out that was caused by metal actually tearing due to incorrect camber angles (one side of the car is full positive and one is full negative... this is the side at full negative i believe)... this is in two spots... i was only able to photograph one though, the bushings are shot as well which doesnt necessarily bother me cause i wanted to install harder bushings... either poly or aluminum... neways yeah thats whats going on...
