it still needs to be painted (i know i know) but its good enough for now and with some nice tom/greddy g racer side skirts she'll be looking puurty!! any suggestions/comment/criticisms. I spent way to much time/money doing all this but its well worth it. Ill post pics of the interior aswell as i converted the canadian red and white car to white black and red.. i actaully kida like it?! its starting to grow on me now

yeah they're sparco speeds but apparently sparco has stopped making them and instead are just making the "sprints" (im not sure if thats the name or not) they're basically the same seat but dont have the leatherish peieces on the side of the seat (the high wear areas). they pretty damn comfortable except they are made for a smaller people and getting in and out can be quite the task with the high sides. and with the shoulder restraints i can no longer reach my cd console i was gonna take more interior pics in a bit

Ok i believe the sprints are no longer available and the speeds are the newer ones?

Im a skinny guy, 145 lbs, 5'6-5'8 approx so i should be good for those seats right?

thinmyster

something like that? but im pretty sure the ones i got are being discontinued? anyways they're good seats and you fit into them just fine. if there's another meet coming up soon you can come see em' there probably the best for the price and its not like we need reclinables?. and I ment the cd console to hold the cds... its impossible to turn around in those seats.. you really have to rely on your mirrors (no shoulder checking)

Darn! getting really nice....does your OLD steering wheel came with an AIRBAG & cruise control? did you use special tools to replace it?

thinmyster
04-08-2005, 11:02 PM
no there was no airbag and to change it I didnt have to toch the cruise control but for some reason my signal lights no longer turn off automatically??? and all i used was a steering wheel puller from parts source it was complete in ten mins.. now all i have to do is hook my horn up So i can stop using the "finger" instead
