I think if the perrin ones are adjustable, they would be good. I am definitely by no means an expert on this, and Shane would know more... but, I've always heard to get the adjustable ones so I don't think the perrin's would be so bad. Maybe you can shed some light, Shane!
Also, Shane, I was curious if you knew why Scott is always reccomending getting a 26mm front ba and no rear bar. Wouldn't this worsen your under/over steer conditions? I haven't even seen a 26mm bar online in my travels. I'm just wondering about the logic behind this because I guess I just can't see it!
In other news, my seat will be here Wednesday! I got the last existing wrx bride seat bracket in the country w00t!=)

For now, yes. The bride seats won't accomodate anyone larger than me, and seeing as I have family coming soon and a track day at road atlanta [where the instructor will undoubtedly be larger than me], I am waiting to do the passenger seat.
It's cost prohibitive as well, since with shipping, seat, and bracket the bill comes to $1140. I can really only afford to do the driver's seat until August. They'll both be done in time for the big shows though [HIN and NOPI]. I'm also working on getting fabric for the backseat and door panels.

rice style? I don't necessarily think that having only one race seat is rice style!

i agree to you in one point that it does look clean with two of the same seats.
If people want to waste their money on off-brand seats its their fault, but it doesn't look rice. I don't know the word rice in the import scene is getting out of control.
Shit if the off-brand seats were comfortable and don't wearoff i'll get me a pair, use the rest for tires hehe. But since they are not, bride and recaros all the way!

I know plenty of BMW & Porsche club racers who only have one race seat & the factory passengerSeat...
because you don't race with someone riding shotgun (except rally).
So I think it looks racey...
not ricey.
Just my two cents (or Deutchmarks for that matter... lol

).

Yay! The flex system was just brought to my door by my leasing office. [I tried to carry it out of the office but it weighed entirely too much!]
Tein hooked it up with the goodies! I got roll call stickers, an actual Tein plastic/metal badge for the back of my car, tons of coilover stickers, the tein url sticker....and the best part of all:
A sequence strip of stickers of dampachi doing a little dance! He's all shakin' his lil coilover booty and his arms and eyes are all googling around. Hahah it's like 9 little stickers long and I HAVE to find a place for it on my car. It is just too, too funny. Hopefully Wednesday will find the coilovers in my car.

Dampachi!
