Figured it was time to upgrade my suspension and chassis a little bit and figured the best thing to start out with would be subframe conectors. Probably going to go with UMI since I have herd good things about them. My car is a daily driver and is not going to be set up for the track. Strickly a street car. Now, what is the difference between the 3point sfc and 2point sfc? Which is better for my application? Any info is apreciated.

I hear boxed is much better. Get weld ins. I just bought an adj. LCA, adj. PHB, and boxes SFC from Byunspeed.com.

I was planning on lowering my car later on and herd boxed was no good. So I was planning on getting tubular, this true?

Tubular offer more ground clearance, that much is true. But the boxed are stronger. I'd highly recommend the UMI brand stuff, whether you get it directly from them or one of our other sponsors.

I would recommend the boxed for stiffness, I guess I'd figure out exactly how much you want to lower it... I don't think you'd have too much of a GC issue with a reasonable drop

You only need a 3-point if you've got a chassis-mounted torque arm. You'd be fine with a 2-point set-up :)

UMI's got some GREAT stuff, too!
