Back to subject, I'd replace the sucker. I've been in the autobody collision buisness for over 3 years, welding wont do jack for a cracked subframe (even compromises it) unless you do major reinforcement plating to that subframe.
My best advice would be to go and search for a rear sub (sourcing one out from a Nissan junk yard, they can help you locate one relatively close to you)
OR
Find a JDM S14 or S15 (S15 if you can find one) and replace it with that. S15 rear subs are very stout and can take a good beating from drifting.
If you want to swap out to a JDM sub, check out the Vendor for sale section here... I coulda sworn I saw one of them who sells a lot of rear end clips for reasonable price.
It's all in the amount of effort you want to put into sourcing one out. Good luck!
