[Sambo33]

[Nozila]

anyone here comtemplated getting the bride copies (seats) from just jap. my seat is wearing out on the drivers side and although i dont mind getting a pair would only really require one. in saying this, would like to know if anyone's seats (driver or passenger) is wearing out and thus dont mind going halfs in a pair with me....or not.

[Sambo33]

do you have the link? just out of curiosity

[Nozila]

only thing that is holding me back from buying them is that you need to modify your original rails to the universal one's. i sure know i cant do it, might have to give pete a buzz. oh that the head clearance of the seat itself. someone here on sau bought and installed a pair in his line, yet to see pics of it though.

ill stick with my normal seat, a race seat would get uncomfortable on long drives.

so how come your keeping the sil80?

[Nozila]

1/ too many tyre kickers, one person test drove it to the point in which one of the piping blew off - due to too much boost. not impressed was the least on my mind.

2/ one of my bro's is using it more frequently then before so it serves a purpose now and not just sitting in the shed like it did before

uncomfortable from your perspective is understandable, you take LONG drives indeed.

[Sambo33]

hehe, i cover like 400ks every weekend!

did you go with the people when they test drove it?

[Nozila]

yeah i was passenger.

[Nozila]

one guy could not drive the car at all. he said that my clutch was not functioning properly. another guy stalled it at least 7 times!!! and even when he was able to just get the handle of it bunny hopped everytime into 2nd gear. needless to say, i dont need the sil80 to be coping that kind of treatment, as it would be me who would be paying for any cost occured as a result of any parts being stuffed.

[Sambo33]

i hate it when the dont know how to drive

i had this one 'tyre kicker' test drive my pulsar N12 turbo, winding gears out, flying around corners ect.. then makes a rediculous offer. i hate selling cars

:lol: clutch not functioning properly

yep, i would imagine they would have had fun with that clutch

[Nozila]

yeah i hate seeing your pride and joy being mistreated and saying 'oh, its nice. ill think about it'.

btw had the clutch looked at by a pro and it is indeed a twin plate. no suprises there.

[Sambo33]

w00t, i can drive a twin-plate clutch car

[Nozila]

i spoke to the previous owner of the car not long ago, and he said something along the lines of if you launch it in 1st and grab 2nd, more than likely that your gear box will blow. Think it happened to him twice. you wont hear this happening with a rb25 gearbox now would you?
