I fitted a new velo seat I pick up from ebay today. I am happy with the result and alot better than my old one. only just fitted though, with the shoulder 'wing' just touching the top of the door card. Was surprised with the weight of the velo seat mounts, will get some alloy ones next time around.

very nice mate.
i've got recaros in my 4 door
& the bases touch the door
trims aswell.

looks real nice im doing a similar setup with my bride zeta seat in my mk2

had my first blat at baskerville since I had the the head and the twin 45's last week.I'm doing laps around 2.5 sec faster than before in the low 1.10's. See below a matchup with a 350z, twas a bit of fun;

but predictably, the ol' standard clutch gave up after 4 runs, so now its in the shop getting a brass button one, and while its there, lightening the flyweel and putting in some better bolts as well.

oh and with the extra speed, the poor old std brakes are getting much more of a workout now, having some scary pedal to the floor type action after 2.5 laps.....[:0]

had another run @ baskerville. This time with a nice a quiet 3.77 diff as opposed to my old 3.54 howler. Much better response out of the corners, but hitting my 6k rev limit halfway down the straight. twas a bit of fun in the damp in the morning;
