It must be great on the open road, my trip to Scotland recently made me realise the importance of a torquey and flexible motor, I still think you have to go a long way to beat the 16 valve for the increase in BHP / lbs/ft to pounds spent on tuning. Pete
Pete - You'll be impressed when your 2 litre is in the car, makes *so* much difference in everyday driving. Even with the very long ratios of the DFQ mk3 8v 'box it still pulls well in any gear (my 4th gear is *more or less* equivalent to a 16v 5th) Al - When Claire drives the car I think - ooohhh this seat is comfy I'll keep it, then she's the *3rd* lap of the roundabout .... f'kin seat When me and ChrisP shared the driving going to the 'Ring last year I was glad to swap seats, as after 1.5 hrs you get 'cinema bum' sitting in that race seat but yeh, a matching seat would be nice.
I was thinking about seats again for the G40, but I can see my girlfriend moaning if they are mega uncomfy! Need to go sit in a few and make sure I don't get stuck Alan
I had the same problem Al, We went over to Demon Tweeks to try all the seats. I got stuck in a Recaro SPG and Corbeau pro sprint "err have you got a crane?"! OMP RS has plenty of room for a fat fecker
Amazing what a bit of Zymol does Dalj Your car is SO phat,love it How those front tyres don't catch is amazing really
I had a Sparco Pro 2000 that was a little tight The Corbeau's come in a slightly wider version too, Motorsport World has quite a few seats in stock, going to drop over and see them and get a sit in a few, as Demon Tweaks, is a fair old jaunt from up here! Alan
Demon Theives is a fair old jaunt from here too Al 500+ mile round trip by the time we'd sampled the roads Evo mag use for road testing.
Its even worse when I did a call in like that to test some seats out before christmas and found the showroom empty!! Had been like that for ages, supposedly a refurb of the area going on, but saw no evidence of it
It's all M6 from here to Tweaks, maybe I'll just order one of each and the one ones back that are no use Alan
There is something really sharp about the G60 steelies, isnt there.... Love your car GVK.... will you be running it at inters this year? I'd love to see it in action in the flesh while im over Edited by: SiVWW
Si, I might have a go at the sprint, never tried with this car Should go better than the last car's 16.3@ 86 Straight lines are not my thing really though Edited by: G_V_K
Mint!!! Will always be one of my favorite motors, i just robbed the top pic for my desktop Cant wait till mines on the road
Thanks Ian I'd like some more wheels for the summer, but no idea what to go for PS - I'll put the full size pic up if you want a desktop Edited by: G_V_K
