Hi.
My name is Connor.
This is my 83' GSL. Just picked it up for $1,000 flat with 150k miles. Runs nice, I plan on doing a TII S4 swap here soon.

I have a couple questions regarding Recaro Seats and how hard it would be to get them in and if they make brackets for the fb's.

Anyways, I'm from the North West where the sun only shines during the summer. So hello everyone and I'd love to meet some fellow FB lovers to help me out.

 

CONNOR!
Edit your Screen profile to add LOCATION...(Like Idaho..etc).I'll add it to your intro once that is done.
Welcome to the Forum.

 

Does that have to be done from a computer? I'm on mobile but I can get on my laptop if I have to on my computer.

 

why a s4 engine ?s5 engine is a stronger one and it about the same pice..

 

I've always been under the impression that the S4 was the easier swap. Maybe you could enlighten me?

 

My understanding is that Recaro does make brackets that will work for the FB, but they retail at something like $280 per seat and you need a pair,one set for each seat

 

So pretty much $1,000+ for 2 seats.. -_- that's s****y..

 

uh..no..
280x2..560
I'll Edit that post and make it a little clearer..a set is kind of misleading.

 

Nice FB dude

 

Well that's just the brackets right? Then more money for the actual seats.

 

Thank you!

 

Planted brackets $140.00 each. Work great.
Mazdaspeed3 seats 100 each. Work great too.

 

Well you can dismount the brackets and lightly modify to mount to seats (Materials maybe $25) and (Time about 1-2 Hours depending on your experience, might break a sweat only), I had the same issue when I had My 85 GSL-SE. Once I find pics I'll post them I took pics step by step bud... Other than that Good-Luck

 

Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks man.

 

Hello Connor, welcome on the forum !

 

Thank you!

 

looks good man. Excited to see it in person at a meet one of these days.

 

I'm thinking of going white with black 15x7 Diamond Racing Pro Wheels. I'm excited for what the future holds! :-)
