Random additions to my car

Random additions to my car

Added a fixed bucket seat (its twin is still for sale ;)) and a Takata harness.

Why'd I do it? 1) I like the feeling of being in a bucket and being held in, 2) it was fairly cheap to get all the stuff and get it in the car, and 3) why the hell not, I had the money :lol:

Only annoyance is my seating position is a BIT higher than stock, but that can be corrected by removing the cushion.

I drove for 4 hours without the cushion and it didn't bother me at all. I think it's because I have "ample" cushioning already :-?

so you need a racing seat for all that horsepower ;)

That's what this is for... My SenCrap used to be a stain MAGNET that attracted stains that sure as hell stumped me, and ANY cleaning attempt made it worse.

No, preparing for my car's inevitable return to the track; you know, the one with turns ;)


And, Ed, the back is attached to I-bolts attached to the floor.
