    what is the difference between the tubular and the 3 point subframe connectors? and what is usually better the bolt in or the weld on ones?

    I don't see a significant difference between boxed and tubular sfc designs. Comparing 2 point versus 3 point designs; the 3 point should offer a bit more rigidity to the frame, but also more weight due to the extra material. The 2 point sfc are more than sufficient, but IMO the 3 point just look cooler. It also looks like the 3 point hang down a bit lower than the 2 point so you may lose a bit of ground clearance.

    I bought the bolt-in to make it easier to weld them on.

      2 point will stiffen it up well enough.

        i got the 3 point since im running alot of autocross action and i have t tops. if i had a hard top i would only run the 2 point connectors. weld in are stronger but bolt in are easier. mine are bolt in due to rules for stx class.
