Question regarding Subframe tearing
Hello i have a 92 dx hatch and have read quite a few subjects on subframes tearing from added suspension parts mostly sway bar and tie bars....... I have myself ......upgraded suspension to
*HR race springs
*KYB GR2 shocks
*5 lug conversion
*front and rear type R strut bars
and my question is.......i like to autocross ever now and then.....and drive daily taking hard corners and driving my go-cart like a go cart.....anyhow
will my subframe tear if i dont add any other sway or tie bar parts to my car and stay driving how i normally drive......taking turns and stressing the suspension..i mean whats the fun if ur gunna add suspension and just drive in a straight line
Thanks for Reading and answering

If you don't have a sway bar why are you asking if your subframe will tear? None of the stuff you mentioned even touches the rear subframe

oops my bad, i need to go back to pre school to learn to read hahaha. but the reason for subframes tearing is from a thick swaybar, tiebars wont tear it.

Yeah, you're safe then. If you wanna run the risk, a rear swaybar is a big upgrade in handling though.

Re: Question regarding Subframe tearing (EG*MonKEY)
front sways are dope when you pair them with the proper LCA, at least on EK's. The only damage i've heard about those is front lca's snapping when unproperly paired. SRR rear lca's are dope. Shouldn't have a problem with those.
