Ok a little update, my new rear subframe is now complete, it is now a one piece design like a mk2 subframe that ties the chassis rails together....
There are quite a few plates and trusses added to this...
On the cars original crossmember i added mounting points for the new frame.
And here is the new subframe painted with temporary rustproofing (i will get all of these components shot blasted and properly painted on final assembly)
This is stronger than before i reckon....
I also added some support trusses to the transmission cradle...
Also i have heard my ECU and engine harness are ready and should be with me shortly so although i don't get much time to work on this it is progressing along.
