4 door? Get another 2 for the back and mould them in :D

[Dan]

Nice! What do they look like from outside the car? Would look pretty hot i reckon!

[KErolla]

it has harnesses on the way and i did concider 2 more for the back seat but i don't want anny one 2 be in the back seat and it will be tubed and strenthend soon anny way .

:D :bash: :bash:

 

will try and get sum pics off the back seat 2moro for u guys

[KErolla]

ok here is a pic from out side the car

 

[Super Jamie]

they look so cool :) comfy seats are nice hey, i could sleep in rob's velo seat :)

 

you shouldn't really have harnesses without a cage. if you roll the car and the roof comes down on you, you can't move out the way and you compress your brain down into your spine and die. it has happened

 

a normal lap sash seatbelt is designed so the occupants can move their body into the center of the car, should the roof collapse down on them. just some food for thought, grisly death is a big price to pay for cool looking harnesses. they're also a defect without an engineering cert, and no good engineer should certify harnesses without proper rollover protection

[KErolla]

dam never thought off that thanks for the info jamie might start looking at desining a rollcage .

 

but yeah thay are dam comfy so nice 2 sit in . I'm loving them and at least now wen we go drifting your ass dosent go sliding off the seat :)

[Super Jamie]

even just a rollbar over the seatbacks and something triangulated to the floor or back parcel shelf would be good. you'd have to get it engineered, and may have to legally modify the seating capacity to 2

 

it depends if you want an all-out project car, or your vehicle to be useful for carrying mates, junk in the back seat, etc. which is a choice we've all had to face at some point

 

good seats are so useful, you can control the car better too, as you can feel more responsively what the ass end is doing and react accordingly :)

[KErolla]

so true man u can feall the difrence its mad

 

and it will only be a to seater so yeah ill be geting it all engernired and all and with the tubing i wont be able 2 hve back seat ppls anny way so it will have 2 be a too seater and tanks for the info on the cage it will have 2 be dun cos the harnesses just got deliverd :)

[Super Jamie]

sweet, new toys again :)

if you have a cams license, the 2005 competitor handbook has alot of really good designs of rollover bars and half cages and full cages

[KErolla]

might just hae 2 have a look in to that thanks man :)

A lot of the bucket seats are stiff as all hell. Not the best option if its a daily driver like mine is...

 

These are the seats in mine, the last owner put them in, out of a 87 or somethin prelude (hey it may be Honda but these seats kick ass):

 

 

These have even got the adjuster so you can adjust the lower part of the seat in or out (for lower back comfort), and the upper part of the seat.

 

They aren't engineered unfortunately, on my to do list.
