if you read the HUGE thread on nasioc, which i reread today. It was admitted to the rally guys in aus BY subaru of japan that in fact the subframe was added simply to change the rating from 4 stars to 5 stars.

NO high performance version comes with the U style subframe. period. BUT they do come with a crossbrace that does NOT triangulate. go figure.

and the debate rages on.

and no matter how many times I count my bolts scott, there are still only 6 gold grade 8 bolts. there are other wimpy sisified bolts. but i was not counting them. also two of the points that the gtspec subframe bolts into are not shared with the stock subframe. the two innermost ones on the rear pieces.
