Hey guys, any idea on the procedure involved in installing the S14 rear subframe on an S14?
Cool… what about brake lines and fuel lines? do I have to remove those?
Anything that will catch on the subframe or anything attached to the subframe must be removed.
cool… but do you guys know what is attached to the frame?
Gas lines, brake lines? Any ideas?
Lift the car and take a look… 
The only thing that will be attached is the brake lines and the e-brake
lines. Fuel lines run along the frame rails. As for getting components
out of the way you will need to remove exhaust and rear sway bar.
I actually just did a sub frame swap today from hicas to non-hicas so
I got some pictures of the sub frame I will post shortly. Tomorrow
I will take some pictures of the under carriage.
wow nice!!
what was your most difficult part?
If you look at the bottom left bushing you will see it is missing. It was
seized so we had to melt it off but that was about the extent of our troubles.
My Advice get an Impact Drill will make the swap about 10000x
easier than using manual tools. You will also lessen your chances
of stripping, snapping or spinning any rusted out bolts.
Hey cool! thanks for the advice.
How many guys do you think is needed for this swap? Is the subframe really heavy?
I did it by myself man.
Its not that heavy ~300lbs without the LSD.
Here is a picture of the Sub Frame Undercarriage
Holy shit!
How the heck did you do this all by yourself?
With an Impact Drill and a Hoist. 
What the trick was:
- Remove Subframe Bolts
- Lower the car to the ground.
- Remove the Shock Tower Bolts
- Lift the car back up and BAM!
The Subframe is nicely on the ground.
Just reverse the order and you have then completed a Subframe Swap!
WOW!
nice writeup! I am going to do that tomorrow.
I think he forgot to mention BE CAREFUL.
As opvious as it seems, (to be careful) it is a good practice to have someone nearby, just in case.
