Z's are going to be endangered like the 240s soon

What about this? This is an internet picture but, this is what i am considering for the bottom mount seats ill be getting. This is an FIA spec mounting style.

Thats okay. Slow progress is still forward progress. I can say the same thing. Ive been planning my wedding and buying a house on a nice lot. My projects have taken a backseat after I got my Akebonos mounted to my Z.

Research and planning has been on my mind. I need to order a seat so I can do the door bars.

Sweet! It looks good with that nice seat sitting in there. What did you end up doing for seat mounts?

LOL, if you could only pick your neighbors.

There hasn't been a lot of action on my end. Hit a curb, bent a wheel, mounted a set of new wheels with ALL WEATHER TIRES. I'm signed up for a NASA event at Sebring next week. I'll be running HPDE events with my daily until the 240sx is track ready.

As for the 240sx: The side mounted seat mounts are finished and I began to rebuild the floor for the seat mounting frame.
