      Did you put a 3B subframe on there along with the struts?

          yeah its a real strange one, its apparently come from a 93 aby coupe, all the bolt holes line up but the bush holes are just bigger, its deff a 6 speed subframe, im wondering whether it came from an audi 100 or similar. but i dont know a lot about those sub frames.

          if it did come from an aby, then maybe there are supposed to be collars/spacers inbetween the subframe and the bushes that hold it to the car.

          if its none of the above i really draw a blank.

          But, jamo is correct the subframe that was on the car was the right one, the uprated bushes are the correct length and size because they fit in the old subframe.

          ive just beeb scratchin my head for couple of weeks now, got bored and bought another one tonight of AL.


          Ps.. ur correct, earlier is m10 and later is m12 but it didnt come with the original bushes, it came powerdercoated and devoid of its bushes lol never mind

          hope that fits better

            ah you say 93 ABY? They were hybrid ABY / 3B and came with all kind of wonderful mixture of parts!
