had a question about the harness bar.... I had read that using the strut towers for a harness bar was a big no no. regardless I thought that was the best place for one, but are these race legal? In races that don't require cages I mean.
|
are you talking about the angle at which they are coming to your seats as a big no no? according to Sparco, you want you harnesses between 3 o'clock (straight back) and 4 o'clock (45* angle difference down.)
i have a harness bar from Rotary Extreme that was drilled and threaded specifically for harness (based off of the M2 piece, i believe). i havent had issues while teching in (and ive gone through some rigorous "strip searches"), so i dont believe they are illegal. as for making a home made strut tower harness bar, im not sure how well it will hold or if i would trust it? ive seen it done, but im not sure how it would actually hold up in an accident. better to be safe then sorry, you know. but id get other opinions as well. if you are thinking about racing, i would call the sanctions headquarters and ask for the technical department. they should know what will and what wont pass inspection. |
like how you did the glove box looks really clean..hood looks awsome..nice video game set up lol.
|
Ballin!!!!!

Did you ever get that "R for Racing" sticker fixed? do you have any more pictures of how you mounted your intercooler Rick?
|
oh yea, the R sticker. that should be taken care of after i get my PFC tuned by KDR.
these pics are double posted from the "Massachusetts Meet" thread; hope they help. http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/6123/dsc01233fv1.jpg http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/9434/dsc01251iv9.jpg http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/9080/dsc01241zm2.jpg i dont have any pictures on my laptop of my FMIC with the front bumper off. if you really need them, i can scan the pictures i have onto my laptop, for ya. |

Did you ever install the Evo seat in your car? Did it fit? I am looking at Sparco's sizing chart and it say the bolsters to the Evo is 23.62" wide and the Sparco Pro2000 are 23.50" and from what I understand the Sparco Pro2k will not fit. So how did you get your Evo to fit, if you installed it.

I should let you know, I had the Pro2k for 2 years now and still have not installed it, LOL. hopefully the weather holds up, I plan on doing it this weekned. I think the bolster on the door sides will need to be trimmed a little. I saw it done on another FD awhile ago.
|
i originally bought EVOs for my car, but the shop i had building it at the time had no clue what they were doing when they were installing them. they were too tall and a little too wide, so i had to settle on the Torinos (which the shop also managed to screw up and break during installation.) i bought the MemoryFab 'super-lo' seat rails this time around, so im thinking ill have better luck with this set up. Worse case scenario, im stuck with the Sprint seat for my driver side (which wouldnt be too bad; great support, sub belt hole, side bracket mounting, comfortable.)
i originally wanted a Pro2000, but i didnt think it would ever fit. let me know how that goes for you (since you'll probably have yours in before i do) and ill let you know how mine goes once my interior's all squared away. |
I doubt that, haven't driven my car or started it for like 3 years
|
Thanks to me making some room in my storage unit by selling a good amount of parts (*NOTE-never include shipping on anything that's bigger then 5lbs; i ended up paying out of pocket $110 on a $250 total item :wallbash: i learned the hard way*), I ordered a ShineAutoProject FRP Front Undertray and a Sparco 345 Suede Steering wheel with NRG 160H Hub Adapter and a NRG G2 Quick Release Adapter. They should all be in by next weekend, and i'll bring everything down to my mechanics, and hopefully have the car squared away by May.

i finally wrote up a 'master list' of what i want/need to 'finish' (there's always going to be something else needed) my twin turbo set up so i can stay focused, instead of being everywhere on what i think i need.

(other then front bumper) |
