Re-mamamia the recaros are much much better than the oem seats. The sides are very strong leather and the center alkantara. They can support the body much better and can use 4-6 ponts harness. I used to have sparco but the recaro is the top.

kai....you will regret it. Don't do it!....Right now you are having fun with the STI. It is kind of like a honeymoon, but once it settles you will miss the FD. You have a cherry example of one. Hang on to it, because one day, and the day will come you will want to be behind the wheel of it again. I KNOW....................ok, enough talk, just looking out for a great member here. Now back to our regular schedule program.....PICS!

You know everybody is going to give you crap for this, so you might as well just keep it, even if you don't drive it! JK

Nice man. Yeh, it's very fun to drive a new car. I just test drove a friend's S4. Hell I even enjoyed a Nissan Sentra rental. drove it down to VA. Full tank of Fuel and bank. (well I pumped $10 as soon as I got back to Jersey just in case. It was already 3 AM

But yeh, I think you'd need that kinda car over there in AK?

Yep, that's where I got it, from Shine. Just ask for the Sanai Fighting FD kit. Or I think he just calls it Sanai.
yeh I figure it's going to be asked alot. Plus also for my reference.

This was back from 2 months ago. It was a disappointment, as every intercooler pipe deiced at one point to leak. After fixing them all it now holds 15 psi till redline and now need to revisit the dyno again. You can't tell from the pictures but I do use t-bolts on my setup.

Hmmmmm, so starting the 3-rotor NA build this winter huh? Nice. You just selling parts off your Panda and starting with the shell as the basis for your 3 rotor conversion, or starting with an entirely new FD?

Enquiring minds want to KNOW!!!

A few of mine before I lay her up to neaten up the bay and doa bit of a wire tuck.
Wheels are only temporary - borrowed them from my daily - hence the weak fitment. When she's back on the road she'll be running 9.5 BBS LM's all round on a semi aggressive fitment - et25 with a 225 on the front, and et10 on the rear with a 235.















And a few more at:

Cheers dude
They're 17x8 et 45 and 17x10 et38, the rears are wearing a 20mm spacer on teh FD though, so ET18.

They usually live on my daily S14a, so they're going back on there I'm afraid.

I'm going to redo them as the gold is fading really badly - going for a satin gunmetal all over, centres and dishes, should add a bit of evil to my 14a
