After long CAD development based on 3D scan of OEM subframe, tested with CAD FEA (Finite element method) and road-going tests you can now buy brand subframe for the rear of your Audi/VW/SEAT/Skoda cars based on MQB platform Front Wheel Drive cars.
Using the same T45 tubing as in WRC cars, our subframes provide increased stiffness and mass reduction. All factory parts bolt up to this unit, no other modifications are necessary.
Benefits:
– 11 kg. It is 2 kg saving over OEM steel subframe.
– Possibility of adjusting camber, toe, and bump steer for improved suspension kinematics.
– Additional mounting for upper control arm – provides better camber gain and roll center
position (requires adjustable control arm to keep camber adjustment).
– One mounting subframe position, eliminates subframe shifting under the car. No need for subframe
locking kit/billet aluminum rear subframe inserts (weight savings).
– Increases chassis rigidity for improved handling performance.

T45 is a very unique seamless carbon-based steel tube that has been used in many applications in different industries. It is stronger than Co-Mo 4130 tubing that is also used in motorsport. It is widely used in the aerospace sector in equipment such as pilot’s seats and crew’s seats due to the materials ability to withstand high G forces without snapping or splitting. This material is Carbon Manganese based and conforms to the full Aerospace Specification laid down by British Standards.
