the rb26 crossmember will not work. it is different, it was designed for different front suspension. get the rb20 or 25 crossmember instead

Yea, as Boostfed said, the RB26 xmember will do you no good. if you actually look at the mounting points and its configuration it's defentantly out of the question.

Use a R33 Crossmember with the Syko mount kit.

The comparison between the R33 and R32 members:zerothread?id=342672

If you need either I have both in Stock.

Just curious, how do you make an r32 crossmember work with the rb26?
