Whats the difference between that and an S14 subframe?

Which reminds me I've been meaning to foam my spare subframe and swap that into my car. I might get to that in the next few weeks.

S15 subframes have more reinforcement welds, and are strong than s14 subframes. Not sure of any other differences though.

There are supposed to be geometry changes as well. That's basically why I bought it. To do some mythbusting. I've already seen some of the reinforcements. Now I've got all 3 subframes at my disposal.

They're hard to find. Yes, this was the one for sale on Zilvia. Opie from CARisma was selling it. This was the one that came off of Mazworx's S15 before they cut the car up to tube frame it.

Well I've got all the S15 arms except traction rod, so we'll see. I'm thinking that they just placed the inner toe pivot in a different place to get rid of the bumpsteer.

Which would explain why the Z32 uprights on the JIC S15 had been modified.
