1985 GSL SE. 88k original miles. Bone stock.

I've replaced the air filter with a K&N have just replaced the belts.

I just ordered a full Racing Beat Street Port Exhaust and when it arrives I'm sure that I will document it very well and have lots of pictures.

Here is the car:

Thanks! Here's what the interior looks like. I've put on a MOMO steering wheel since I took the picture so its a little different now. (Mod.30 with buttons with NRG quickrelease)

Forgot to upload this picture as well. Here is the new steering wheel that I installed. I love it but what's the best option for replacing the seats? I've heard of swapping in some third gen seats but they require some modification. The only reason I say this is because my head nearly hits the roof and I feel a little too close to the steering wheel.

I put cloth Turbo II seats in my GSLSE and I like it. You just need to switch over the drivers seat rails from the first gen to the T2 seats. The passenger seat bolts in.

I've heard that the Turbo II seats are an improvement but that the third gen seats were miles ahead of both of them. But the modifications to get them to sit on the rails the right way worries me.

So while looking at my diff because of a leak I decided to take a look at my shocks and springs. I'm already planning on buying the Racing Beat suspension kit (sway bars, coilovers... everything, basically) and I just wanted to know if you see anything wrong from these pictures. (if something is wrong I'll re prioritize the coilovers)

Got my Pineapple Racing 5th and 6th port sleeves. Quick question: since I have a Racing Beat streetport exhaust system on the way, should I just wait till I'm installing that to go ahead and put in the sleeves? Cause the website says it'll take 2 hours to install with the engine in the car and thats probably with someone experienced doing it. Will I get access to the ports when I'm installing the exhaust?
