The white paint is going to be the FOERST to go....at the car wash/powerwasher. It'll probably peel off anyway.

random thought:

The thought is....4 seats. (hell, the car's big enough) I'm gonna get the Kirkey seats since they're the cheapest ones I can find, and I sat in them at the Summit wharehouse and liked the feel of them too. Soo.....4 Kirkey seats, and harnesses for all.

once I get better, I'd like to get 3 passengers in the car instead of just one.

I still have a big boy Kirkey that I had in my miata for track days, I loved the feel of it, it held me tight like a warm hug, not comfortable for driving around town.

matt has one in his S13, I think he likes it too.

yeah, I saw them in Matt's car.

what size is the seat? I'd like to be able to have anybody ride with me once that time comes.

I hate matt's kirkey because it is the perfectly wrong size for me.

it's like a gentle hug from a robot to me.

well, I went and got the car weighed. My buddy who won the Cobra let me borrow his truck to get it to the weigh station

That's with a 1/4 tank of gas, no driver, and only the donut spare and the scissor jack in the car.

59.6% Front / 40.4% Rear on the weight distribution. It can only get better from here. There's a lot of stuff to get rid of up front.

I didn't know you could roll up to one of those and get weighed. That's rad.

yep, just be prepared to cough up 8-9 dollars though.

about it's weight, I was expecting it to be heavier actually. I should be able to get it down to 3400-ish before things start getting replaced.

we weighed the GT500 too, it was about 3950 and 57%/43%

There goes my main gripe at how EFI doesnt look like a Carb....

my Uncle was checking the car over some, was checking a brake line...and noticed a crack in the spindle.

so....These are now in the mail heading to where the car is.

twice as strong as the old ones, already predrilled for Wilwood calipers, but can also accept my stock brakes too.
