Headrests are not that hard to put in. Like Ryan said you need patience. I fed a banana shaped bit of wire down the back of the seat. Some times you get it first go other times I just want to throw tools. And if you unzip the seats and undo the plastic lip at the bottomm its a bitch to get back together.

Are these cloth seats you are talking about? I wonder if they're different to the leather?

I unzipped my leather one (drivers side) to add a piece of foam to give me some more lumber support lower down. Then just zipped it back up. Yeah it was "tight", but not what I'd call difficult.

thats a great idea! my seat needs more lumbar support too!!

Easy to do. I used some hardish stuff that came wrapped around equipment - not polystyrene, but that would do I guess, just potentially messy. I put it behind the frame/webbing at the back which in turn pushed the front out. I find the lumber adjustment via the lever to be OK, but a little too high on my back to be effective on long drives.

Woooooo! :thumbsup: Now you need to paint your lights black! I have a spare light if you need a practice unit.

Fark! Can it take any more black?:ph34r:

Might need you to give me a tutorial as well... :whistling:

Yes they were cloth seats and the zip goes down the back and around the bottom. I think the plastic lip has to be undone to get to the zipper.

agreed....might look abit "too much" on a dark coloured car?

I've always wondered what other colours might look like. Red or yellow perhaps. There's millions of colours so you are almost guaranteed of being unique, plus it's paint so you could change it often for a new look.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
