My new 94' FD Photos

After selling my 93' I couldn't pass it up when I found this 94'. Here are some photos after some of the suspension, wheel and interior mods have done since I bought it.

Seats are Status Racing Carbon Fiber Suzuka's. They are probably the nices seat I have ever seen. We have put them in a ton of cars, But on my FD, I had to make custom aluminum seat brackets and sliders for proper fitment and the lowest possible seating position.

Wheels are SSR Comp H 18x10.5 +43 with 285/30 Advan A048R, they were a cramming but they fit with no rubbing after I rolled the fenders.

I am 6'5" 210 and have a ton of room. I am planning on making new side brackets that will give the seat more tilt to increase theigh support.

So those seats actually sit you lower? And you retained the Sliders? nice job...

I Had to make custom side brackets and custom sliders, but it was well worth the extra low seating position.

NICE FD!!!

A few questions: What is the spring rate for the swift springs you're using? Other than the rolling fenders, coilovers, and sway bars is there anything else you had to do to get these to fit? THANKS

Great looking car. I love the Nardi wheel and the seats are nice but(and this is not negative) for the same price I would take a known name brand. Love the website!

Thanks.... As for the seats, I looked at almost every other MFG. and for the price these were the nicest quality I found. Also the front near the theigh support is not tall and constrictive, which makes the car easier to get in and out of, and gives you more leg movement while driving.
