Jaguar used the name "XJ6" for decades on cars that were quite different. Think of Ford "Mustang". The name "Mustang" has been in use since 1964. The name has stayed the same but the cars themselves have changed a lot.
Anyhow, a subframe from a "Series III" style XJ6 will not interchange with a subframe from an "XJ40" style XJ6

A 1990 XJ6 is also known as XJ40 (the Jaguar factory code for the vehicle). It was in production from 1986 to 1994.The subframe from the earlier model XJ6 Series III will NOT fit.
After reading this thread, I thought it was clear and resolved until I saw 12v in your post. Do you definitely have a Jaguar with a 6 cylinder engine and not a 12 cylinder?

Well, "12V" does not mean the same as "V12" and in any case the V12 Series III car was not sold in the US, nor are any parts on the V12 car ever labelled by Jaguar as "V12" (and most definitely not "12V"...) Perhaps the questioner could post a photo of his car for definite identification.

The XJ40 body with the V12 engine was not in any way a "grey market" car. It was officially marketed in both Canada and the US as the "XJ12".
