Subframe hardware
I am always amazed by how much good information is on this forum, and when I thought I had just about heard everything, I stumbled on the thread below:
https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/101...ubframe-bolts/
This is a good read.
So, as I am going for an alignment and corner balance tomorrow, I thot I would check my own bolts.
Holy crap!
All but two were looser than spec, by a wide margin. Primarily on the right side of the car.
Re-torqued every bolt to the factory specs.
Recommend to everyone, especially if you are tracking the car, to check this out.
Might be a good service to offer on tech days.
It is an easy repair.
Cheers y'all.

when I first bought my car (used) I wanted to re-torque all of the suspension bolts to make sure they were properly secured. Two bolts that I found loose were actually on the upper front control arms, on both sides of the car, I got them tightened down to spec soon after.
