I'm after the 5th Gen 2 wheel steering subframe set up to convert my racecar to 2 wheel steering and save some weight
Cheers

Why?
You'll reduce the handle capabilities for the sake of 20 kg. Not worth it IMO if it's just a bit of track day fun.

He is looking at proper racing rather than track driving. While I like 4WS on my 5th gen when I take it to the track I am not sure if I would like it on a competition car. If the 4WS fails it may mean throwing away an expensive day. Less electronics = better reliability 
jasonxr2racer you need either the 2WS rear subframe from a BB6 JDM import or from the UK 2L. Dont buy the OEM toe arms unless the balljoints and balljoint boots are pristine, you cant get new ones. Aftermarket toe arms are £200 a set.
