My first RSX-S sub-frame was bent, due to the car being in an accident, but my second RSX-S sub-frame worked.

I think the faq could be updated with this information about the rsx base and type s sub frames can be used.

in the *** it only states ep3 si.

Should probably include the newer engines too.
The "SI" is no longer just an ep3
