The front seats weight appx 150lbs total. They're big, heavy, and not even that comfortable. I've been looking at trying to get something like RSX seats for it. Was even looking at the seats in the 4G Eclipse at tint day. Just something nice and modern, manual not powered for weight savings. Kerry put Evo 8 seats in his Supra, I wouldn't mind doing that if I could find a set for a good price. Probably knock 100lbs off the car with the front seats alone.

that makes me horny.

And on. Mounting the tires fucked up the plastidip on the wheel, so I just peeled it all off. Peeled off pretty easy. I hated the way it turned out anyway so no big deal. But kinda sucks if I want to dip them again a different color, seems like every time I swap on tires I'd have to re-dip them.

Wow after seeing what you have done with this car I totally want one. Very very very nice build. I beat the car is a total sleeper to alot of people. The tires give it away that it might have some power. Cant wait to see what it makes when you push it.

[Halon]

Yeah, I'd say it's a sleeper for sure. That was kinda the goal. It still idles somewhat normal, exhaust isn't crazy loud. So I could be chilling next to someone at a stop light and they'd probably have no idea. The tires do give it away a little, but that's kinda cool too, like "hey why does that car have those tires?" kinda thing.

Question though. So with these tires being drag radials, I thought I've heard people say you should not dyno with these tires. Is that true?

[JET]

Those shouldn't be soft enough to worry about. Dyno'ing should be fine.

[turbotalon1g]

I agree with 93, this build totally makes me want one.
