Uhmmm...those are ghetto compared to the other ones I showed ya. Also make sure they are scca approved if you ever plan on going to the track or they won't let you run. Just get the Recaros.

Post a DIY on how to do this as others are interested...

[speedtrapped]

Ben, I will...but I wont have recaros for 3 weeks. Wedge engineering is providing the sliders.

[na1mt]

Your very welcome grasshopper. If I wasn't around to guide you you'd be sportin cardboard seats covered in alcantara and a set of Miro wannabe BBS ch-r....lol.....although you would have prolly been able to buy em all in different colors and still had money left over to spare.

[ben916]

After todays fookin' rollercoaster of a ride, those cardboard seat might have some puke or something else on them...


Also Stephen, I was at PureMS last week and saw a "goodie" with your name on it...?!?!?

[na1mt]

If you saw a good deal on a Momo steering wheel.....don't tell him...lmao

[speedtrapped]

He'll no on the momo.....the bulbs, Ben is referring to $23.00 smackaroos. Damn can't wait to get my cts-v back so I can stop spending $ on the rs6... Btw Ron , care to share how much you have dropped in the NSX since u have bought it......

[na1mt]

Not on your life....lol. If I did and my girl read this over my shoulder she would make me buy a new house in your neighborhood.

[MaxRS6]

Congrats!!! Looking forward to your comments/pics. Thank you for a thread on something other than wheels/tires [not that there is anything wrong with that] or oil...;0

[streetsoffire]

Yeah, those seats over on the 'zine are mad nasty.......I don't know you, but I know you are better than that (those).

If you can, point me in the direction of some recaros you may have come across.......

[speedtrapped]

It was a find from a friend. Na1mt knew I had loved those seats, but they are not cheap. He came across them on an NSX forum, $1100.00!, for the pair, black leather.

[na1mt]

Since there is only one NSX forum I hope you made the deal already.....lol

[speedtrapped]

Yup, deposit accepted

That would save about a 100# of weight!

i ordered the odessey battery off amazon, and a trickle charger...$190.00 delivered....now I dont have to lose 40lbs!!! best diet/execise program ever!

[na1mt]

Those seats are also not certified for on road use.....in short.....bad idea. So besides not being able to use them on the track,god forbid you get in an accident and the seat shatters and cuts your leg off....your insurance company will not pay out on the claim. Try www.statusracing.com they are little less expensive than recaros but the build quality is amazing and they are FIA approved.

[na1mt]

After closely reading their disclaimers I wouldn't put those seats on my kids big wheel....lol
