Cheers for the KBOX info.
Not entirely sure yet about the rubber trim, either that or just sikaflex.
 
Not sure if I am going to respray the same colour either, I love black but the Mica Blue is pretty awesome too. Probably stick with Mica Blue until the full strip restoration later.

Just a follow up, I've confirmed that the below NSK bearings are the right ones for the car, the part numbers are correct and is definitely OEM Toyota.  Can't go wrong by going direct to the manufacturer and only paying half price. 
Front Bearing 
NSK: 28BWD01ACA60 
Rear Bearing 
NSK: 38BWD01A1ACA147 
 
Other than that, all the handling part is already installed and the car is getting an alignment tomorrow, finally.....

Bloke do love your work. Blue mica looks freaking sweet in the sun. Curious with the Bride RO rail / Recaro combo - care to share more infos?! Brilliant idea, they look like they work and fit perfectly. Did you need an adapter plate or anything special to make it work?!

Yeap, they fit perfect, absolutely no issue at all.
The adapter plate is not required, nothing else to it, just get the seats and the rails and chuck it in. Super easy.

Are the correct Bride RO rail part numbers T048RO & T047RO?
Do the rails come with the bolts to attach the seats to them?
 
If so there are some on Ebay in QLD for about $270 each

Yeap, those are the correct part numbers for the seat rails. 
No, it didn't come with new bolts. The original bolts on the seats were in pristine condition so I just used them.

After mucking around with the damper settings, I've finally realised why the original springs with TRD dampers felt weird, it was over damped.......

Looking good! I'm really wanting to buy a set of coilovers instead of the kings I have in the car atm.
So the car is fairly comfortable on average street roads with the 3/5kg and 15in wheels?

Absolutely, it's got the seals of approval from my partner, her tolerance to discomfort is low to say the least.
