I've taken a good look at this and, knowing what it takes to design and produce such things, I think the price is about right. Certainly not cheap but there will be a good market for it.

About time too....but I have a few nearly new subframes in storage so should last the life time of the car.
Flipping excellent.
I like that, but as mine will only be a road car and i have a new toyota subframe in the garage just in case, i guess i dont really need one...
I feel like this needs a new kind of like button,with a champagne bottle

Not stated on the website but from his connected on Facebook it looks to be up to 5kg heavier.
The adjustability is good, but if my current subframe lasted 20 years and I'm going to replace it,I'm not sure I can justify spending twice as much on a heavier subframe instead of the replacement OEM one - it's all good being stronger but if it doesn't need to be it is a waste of mass

True. But time is running out on new replacements. Especially Pre Facelift.
I have a stash of PFL sub frames... ;D
Also, Zurawski Motorsport has developed a Stainless sub-frame, in final prototyping. I like its design more personally, however the Woodsport has adjustments for lowered cars to reposition the control arms which is handy.

Just looked at this, love it. Great example of relatively low cost high quality laser cut steel for aftermarket parts.
