I dunno, The 260 has lots of "speed holes" in it. It must have taken a bit off it's weight.

If it comes to it, Nick you can use my subframe i need to take it out again sometime anyway to fit an R200, but id rather get my motor sorted at the mo. Just a thought.

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 8-)

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.
