Verts have an extra subframe crossmember brace. You don't need to swap it over.

That's how the vert is only 1% less rigid than the coupe.....along with the top and other frame extra's.

yeah there is a ton of extra bracing in the vert, that's one of the pieces.

there's also double-thick floor pans, extra bracing under the fenders, etc...

the verts are pretty stiff cars!
