We were still over at the py tent. We'll all be going at it tonight. There is this partially bald headed dude across from us that has this really cool palm tree we might be borrowing around 2 or 3 in the morning. They have christmas tree here at the track and we're thinking they need a palm tree next to it.....

How many parts/ components were upgraded to make this new front subframe. I know you put a lot of labor hours into this, in addition to the parts. Do you still use the OEM steering column? I wonder if anyone out there has a modified subframe for sale? That way I could keep my original parts and bolt in the lightweight racing subframe.

I am extremely happy on how everything with the "re-build" of my car went. EVERYTHING was new on the thing including the brake lines and it's ran beautiful to this point with no hiccups or issues.

I had $1700 in the rack kit and upper and lower A-arms, all from Smith Racecraft, $130(?? can't remember exactly) in both front and rear midplates from allpontiac.com, $200 in a complete use Aerospace Components lightweight disk brake set-up ($500 new), and $400 in a barely uses DA coilovers and spring set-up ($700 new). An extra $100 in braided brake lines for the calipers, $25 in the rest of the steel lines, $10 in fittings, and $22 in a chrysler aluminum master cylinder. That pretty much covers everything on the subframe for a little over $2500.
