Awesome seats Mat!

I just found the thread about the DIY oil cooler.

Sweet info in there!

Going to get myself one when I have sorted out my suspension.

Link to the seats? :D

Autobarn is selling them cheap az! Just gotta get rails now...

Awww yeahh! Just found the link!

$149 is a farken steal!

The rails, where do you find them?

Apparently Bride MO or something, let me know if you find any first! I have not looked yet lol

Re use the stock rails?

Lol I don't even know what to type to find it.

Also if it's not on the first page of google then it doesn't exist

Mani, you are a worry :P Ill let you know how i go and if i find them!

On another note, i noticed on thrashing i had some power steer fluid residue coming out so i got it a sock to mop it up :P

I've got Jordan brand wristbands on my cars.

Lol awesome!

Ill be hiding the D1 logo anyway, i just wanted black! It was the only reason i chose this style :P

There is a guy on eBay who sells seat mounts, I assume those seats came with sliders?

I'm not sure what they come with yet but ill find out.... You got any info on this so called "guy"? :P

And yes I am hanging around here to find out how you go.

I will then be calling them and getting these seats as well :D

When you do, ask about rails as you can be sure they would have some idea!!! Actually, it is Autobarn..... I take that back :P

"Rails?....It's a seat mate not a train"

Thats the exact answer I would expect

I guess thats what we come to expect from the ACT!

Although in your case it would be "Rails?..... Its a boat mate not a train" lolz :P

If they come with rails, they will probably be those shitty universal rails that never fit any car ever.

Yeah that is cool! Ill try find some lower bride rails, just need to find a supplier with decent cost gear!! If i can get the seat any lower than now ill be happy as my helmet sits on the roof! I would hate too see anyone taller trying to drive it!

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
