Wow... I bet that looks a LOT worse once you get it off, too. Probably a bunch more cracks / damage that you can't see while it's still on the car.

There's an article on here about how to get the rear subframe off... I'll see if I can dig it out.

Same error here too sir. Looks like it's time to get some new bushings while you're at it...

If you removed it, It could be welded pretty easily.
If it were me I'd weld it front and back, Grind it smooth and
reinforce it by welding on a steel plate over the cracked area.
Unless just replacing it with a uncracked one would be easier.

Humm I pretty sure that will take me more time to take all the stuff and transfert it to another subframe, and here a supra 89 subframe that is not rot is pretty rare and costly... I just want to be sure that a welded job will tuff....
I found that link if somebody is interrest http://www.mkiiisupra.net/bbs/showthread.php?t=25053
It's been enough things that I change as I get rid of it anyway.
I have spotted a nice 300ZX TT:naughty:
