Darren: Yeh for sure, you will have to take it for a drive as well. I'll be doing the brake light mod this weekend so I guess I'll see you if your down there!

Trav The extractors do come with the bpipe but unfortunately the guy I bought them off didn't have it anymore. Atm it uses a custom b-pipe which works ok but is not ideal and not as free flowing as the fujitsubo item.

Yeah I'll be there Adrian. I have a couple of things to do to my car before I get it tuned.

I'll take your car out for a drive when we're not in Richmond as the roads there aren't very good.

Trav: Exhaust fix in Croydon made the b pipe when I got the extractors put on.

Darren/Simon lol sorry, I guess I was a bit slow on that one!



Anyway I finally picked up a set of sparco seats that I bought a while ago! Thanks once again goes to Trav (Kameleon) and Darren (mister_two) for the seats,rails and baseframes. I'll obviously put some more photos up when they are installed but these will have to do for now.

No worries man. I'm looking forward to seeing them fitted. I forgot to tell you that you'll probably need some bolts to fit the seats onto the rails. Did the seats come with any?

I had to buy some when fitting my RECARO seats.

sorry Adrian, since i never fitted them i never bothered to find some seat base bolts for them.

Yeh wtf guys? lol only joking, my Dad practically has every nut and bolt available to man so that wasnt a problem at all.

The only issue I can see is that when I bolt the sliders to the seat there is no way they will match up to the baseframs as the seats mounting holes must be alot narrower than the recaros. Hmmm might have to modify the stadard baseframes??

Yeah I completely forgot Adrian. Sorry man.

You see when I bought my seats, rails etc. I still had to buy the bolts for the seats separately from RECARO. They weren't expensive probably around $20.

I think Trav and I should have a look how the SPARCO seats are set up. I'm sure we'll work something out, it'll probably be best to modify the base frame.

Nick Cheers mate, I can't wait to have a sit in them!

Darren Don't stress, I (+Dad) went and bought some materials today and fabbed up some brackets to make everything work. Going to get some high tensile bolts tommorow and hopefully have the seats in the car by tommorow as well if all goes to plan. Will post some pics once they are in

Darren: Hey man, didn't make it obviously. Had a huge Friday night so Saturday was spent in bed lol


Update: Got the seats in. They look and feel great. I'm going to wait till I get a set of coilovers to paint the wheels satin black which will go better with the seats.

Anyway pics! Pretty crap quality but you get the idea
