    V6 and S2 subframes

    I've doen some searching on here but cnat find a definite answer, is the V6 subframe the same as the ABY? Can it be used on an S2 without any modifications? I need to replace mine, it's fairly rusty .

    V6 has some reinforcement pieces welded on around the inner seam (so is heavier) but apart from that its the same

        These are the 2 opinions I've found on here, some say they are the same and others say the 5 and 6 speed are different. Has anyone actually fitted a V6 subframe to an S2 ABY? I've found one I could use but dont want to buy, sandblast, paint, fit new bushes etc if it doesnt fit.

          the subframes look the same, but the gearbox brackets are different (if you have the 6speed gearbox).

                  Yes, what he meant to say was that a V6 subframe is the same as the S2 6 speed.
