seen it before. pretty rare.

im glad i have an extra one. i bought the entire rear subframe with all control arms, axles, brakes, differential, and ebrake cables for 150 bucks

if you swap to a supra subframe you need to also switch the lower control arms. the supra lower control arms are shorter then the SC
