Very tight fitment and mount nuts were a pain.

I do love the extra space and slight weight differences between the OEM and V8R subframe, there are merits to this however. One being of how very tight the fitment is. The other is the motor mount nuts.

1. The frame isn't exactly direct fitment, almost accidentally cross threaded the body, and my body is straight. Luckily I got it installed with ease.

2. The other thing is the mount nuts. Literally couldn't fit any of my tools (master tech at Mazda, kind of give you an idea what my arsenal is) to fully and properly torque down the nuts for the motor mounts. Unsure why it was engineered like this, but I got them tight none the less.

As always, V8R goes above and beyond with quality. As everyone says the installation isn't a walk in the park, but well worth it from the amount of space and rigidity it adds to the car. Would 100% purchase again!

A Gem of a find

Yes, it's obviously a hassle to install, but everyone who's seen the subframe compliments it, my car passes state inspection, and it is excellent I enjoy the extra space it is a well-engineered piece it helped me to run my car after my subframe had been smashed and made it better, it has people asking me where did you get that!

Worth the money

Install was easy since my motor was already out but the space saving makes working on my car so much easier. I would recommend it to anyone who's always working on it from track days
