Improved Rear Subframe ?

[paul3944]

Not sure if this has been mentioned before but here go\'s :Thumbs-up

Managed last month to knacker my Rear Subframe and replaced it with a second hand one.

On comparing the two together, the replacement frame has extra bracing on both sides and bolts onto either side where the thin/flimsy metal covers normally go.

Was this a late improvement by Mazda ? and if so was it applicable to only certain versions i.e RS/RZ ?
