Notice that behind the area where the OEM rear bulkhead is (that is to say behind the front lip of the rear deck), the rear deck really is just a deck (except for the beams that stick out back there). That's probably what your builder was looking at. But the front of the rear deck is the heart of the frame of the S2000.

So when one welds the base onto this deck, wouldnt the deck deform under stress? (regardless of the harder frame underneath, but since the mount is not attached to this harder part..)

The base mount would then shift ..

I weighed the car yesterday. 1480lbs with a passenger seat (sparco Evo) and half tank of gas. Figure 25lbs off for the seat and base.

Sorry, that's 2480 not 1480
