Twisted sub-frame?pics.
Is my sub-frame twisted from the PO or is it just something in the door? The door is shut all the way, but theirs still a large gap. Also the windshield is cracked right down the middle, coud this be from sub-frame twist also. What would i do to fix it, before installing SFCs.

What makes you say the frame is twisted.Was the car crashed or dropped.If the door is closing correctly or its not hard to close or sounds different than normal.Then your window is just out of adjustment(my 1st guess by the pic).Adjustment is fairly easy after you remove the door panel.As for the windshield what caused it to crack in the first place.

I wasn't saying it was twisted, that was the question. But i have heard stories of people cracking their windshield because of a lack of sfcs, and this is the reason it is cracked i believe. Also i have heard of people haveing sealing problems because the sub frame twisted.All of this caused from more power than the elasticity of the frame can return to normal.

To bust a front windshield I think you would need around 500RWHP and wrinkle wall slicks... and even then I don't know that it would break. What I have heard of is T-tops shattering from the body twisting...
