FYI its called a powerplant frame or PPF. you might try looking for it on ebay.

Also SR motorsports sells an aftermarket one if you want to spend stupid money on it.

Hey is that powerplant frame really needed? Will it destroy the carbon fiber driveshaft if it is removed?

yeah and there'd be nothing supporting the trans other than the engine itself.

I still have/can get one if anyone wants one.

No other car has that frame that I know of.. It is not really needed and is only there for stability and to eliminate movement and loss of power as things spin... Yes only 4 bolts hold the driveshaft to the differential and that is how it is in ALL other vehicles..

It is needed for that reason in bold.
