What do you mean where it would mount to the cage with the two top parts putting a
little more? Ya I have played with the other mounts in the front there are really
soggy ill work something out.

where the subframe actually bolts up to the car in the factory places (out by the wheel wells)

What I've noticed is when you put a new on one you can get to that big front drain plug on the transmission, but after a few events the subframe is tweaked enough that you cant get a socket on there anymore because the subframe is in the way.

I'm working on the ears today and will be tubing up the first one soon and then I did get a good front frame so that might be in the works too but all depends on money I will need to get off a few rears.

As Dave pointed out, you really need to make a new T-bar section instead of trying to mate up the stock one.

Make sure the front subframe is a turbo car one.

The front is not I haven’t bothered to much in the details is there any other
sever difference other than the one clearance issue if that’s it all I need is
mounts from it.
I do plan on the t bar but for now im one man and i want to pull a sub frame out
first and see where i need to go with that.

Just the difference in order to fit the downpipe. Since off the shelf good downpipes are readily available for Subaru stuff, you'd absolutely want to make sure that's still possible as some/many of your potential customers won't be willing or want to have to modify or replace or build a custom downpipe.

Not different for the "downpipe" but different for the "UP-PIPE/MANIFOLD"

you can find pictures on the web easily enough

Hey...I'm up on Novelty Hill for a couple days, is your shop close by? I'd like to check out the subframe and chat about some other parts.
