ok i dont get it why would a stock GS transverse x-member work on our cars but not the SRD one that makes no sense.....the SRD is a replacement fot the stock so if the stock fits our car so should the SRD....someone explain why this wouldnt work

I believe it has to do with the exhaust system piping/routing on the GS V6 vs RS 4 cyl. engine and the straight-line shape of SRD's transverse x-member whereas the stock GS one is "C" shaped--but not positive this is the reason... anyone else...? anyone??? Just a thought-you could always contact SRD directly for a straight answer...

Also, read my edited post above re I think the PO of my MX may have had the mounting holes drilled & tapped cuz they just don't look "factory" done to my eye.

if its just an exaust problem then i shouldnt have a problem.....since im doing a turbo setup i should be able to get the exhaust to pass it.....but the reason i never got it b4 was because everyone said that the holes were not on an rs

Im 27, jeffs 28. We've been around a long time lol.

Hope you dont think that makes you two the oldest. I'm 35 been watching this board off and on now for 4 years. Used to login as Rick DeBie. I have a feeling Pelado was older than me though.

Yeah, check out Pelado's sig... includes some nice performance mods ending with "FOP Hair Gel" & FOP stands for Effing Old Person.
