Re: 1600 rear subframe
I dunno, The 260 has lots of "speed holes" in it. It must have taken a bit off it's weight.
They don't call me the man with the rubber arm for nothing you know.............

Re: 1600 rear subframe
nick.
a 910 rear subframe BOLTS into a 510 no worries......I fitted one to my 510 years ago, but never drove it, as the mounting points (or the trailing arms) make the rear toe in too much for a 510, at least without modifying it.
so doing a 910 rear subframe conversion could be quite handy if you could sort the toe in problem.
it would give you good shock options, including coilovers as standard, and rear discs

Ok i'll talk to you about it when I see you next, could actually work quite well If you have an R200 by that point too, I could snaffle that aswell.
