Also a Wideband as well, also a hood for the Defi's to sit in, and use the pod I have now for the wideband. I am somewhat of a standstill with modding my car and having parents nag me about saving my money instead of spending on my car

Oh I think importimage just have them on special again for the wing.

BTW, I was debating on which diffuser I wanted and it was between the Voltex and the HKS Kansai. I liked the fins so ended up choosing the Kansai but still love the looks on your diffuser.

Thanks heeh grass always greener on the other side are true story heh. I got a TGV code and so I have to do the TGV delete so they are taking out the intake manifold. Notthing really big just put in a few bolts on. Like spacer, injectors and inlet pipe to support the ATP3076 but Im not doing the turbo yet. Trying to see how the car do with a big stage 2.

Im not sure which one to go for cause after I sit on my friend evo10 recaro seats I notice my seats are really crappy. How is the SPG for DD? I dont track or drag at all so I need them for DD. They do look really badass and alot bigger than normal one.

Also you have the Recaro Speed before right? How is the reclining VS fixed for DD?

Im looking at this right now..

Not sure.. Paul said something like 340/400 on a dynojet. With the ATP turbo 400ish/400ish. We will see once my car is done. Just waiting for the spacer and coldair right now than will be ready for the stage2 tune. Have fun with the meth and stuff for a while and than drop the bolt on in. I got all the supporting mods accept intercooler. We will see soon for the stage2.



Added Stance coilover pictures here just for the record.

I did have the Speeds before. They were comfy but they were sort of a weird fit for me. On road trips, after a couple hours they would make the outside of my thighs hurt because they pushed on them right in one spot. But everyone fits differently, that was just my experience. I fit much better in the SPG XL's but they are definitely not as thickly padded or easy to get in and out of. They are probably overkill for a DD, although the pole position might be a good compromise. The Sportsters look really nice although I've never sat in one before.

I just dont feel like I want to go rotated cause of the down time. I want to do a simple setup for now and plus Yimi is hooking me up with the ATP turbo for cheap. Maybe down the way I will do something like rotated with build motor but Im not feeling the need for it cause my car is still pretty new. I just want as little changes as possible.

I guess I should get one first and see how I like it before I get the matching one. I will probably go with Recaro and might give the sportsters a try cause I read some where is actually little wider than the Speed.

Do you know how heavy is the stock seat?

Oh wow cause the sportster is around 35lbs. Is 35lbs heavy for aftermarket seats?

Yeah dude you should totally get the SPG. Look so badass but I dont really want to turn my car to track setup and stuff. Anyway I was going to ask you something last night but I forgot what... too early right now lol...
