So, this morning i got woken up by the mail man needing me 2 sign for my passport. So every thing started good. Got my passport so theres 1/2 the things needed for my trip in May. So i got up, dressed, ect. Grabbed my dads new camera and deicded to take some new shots of the celi..havent had n e thin since the fall. So i took around 35pics..i weeded the bad ones/doubles out. of them. So i got home, was bored..decided to go do some work on the celica. So within...4 hours..i installed my 2 new lift supports for the hatch *thank god..that thing ways a ton w/o them*, installed my second sparco *yay*, finaly finished installing my fog lights *i had the wires, switch, every thing done almost a year ago, but never mounted the actual lights* and started 2 get some ideas for my interior. I decided im not gonna re-upholster my back seats after all, but im gonna do some suade peices within the car, and re-do/lay over my head liner. So, all in all, i had a very productive day with the celi.

^lol..that sucks man.

and to answer every one elses questions, no my head doesnt hit the roof with the seats..if i wear a baseball hat the button on the top hits sometimes. It kinda sucks, but you get used to it. And thats not the worse hight. The brackets come with 3 different high adjustments, when i first installed the seat i was at the highest. Then my head was hittin the roof no matter what. And yes i did modify them to sit a bit lower. There r 3 holes on the brackets to set the hight, all you do is cut it down to how high you want them. If you still dont like the hight, you can also just weld the sliders to the base too.

No ZR, i dont sit like that..i had it back to do up the bolts in the rear. These seats do lean forward, but the thing is, the base on them is rediculusly big, so having people sittin in the back is stupid cuz theres no foot room. They will have to spread out across the back seat.

and for Jaws, how much..too much..i spent around $3200 i think on them all in all with brackets etc. But my insurance company picked up the tab cuz my oem seats we dmged in my accident. Comfy, indeed. They are really tight when you first get em, but after usin em for awhile they pack out. The install isnt to bad. I did 85% of the install in my basement, the most time consuming part is to put together the clutter of brackets and peices and make em into a seat base. The only other hard part was the way sparco designed the brackets, its really hard/impossible to put the seat belt back in. We had to cut about half an inch off each side of the bracket to be able 2 slide it in with the seat belts. All in all, with fitting, cutting, lots of adjusting and so on..to actually get the seat into the car took..30 min per side? but all in all it takes about maybe 3 hours to get every thing together and install em. I did a How-to write up in the interior section back b4 x-mas i think on how 2 install em.

And yes 95CelicaST, i do have a mini muffler, and yes he does like to be hugged..lol. I was supprised with it when i got my system done. Its so small, but its soo beefy. Its got a very very low tone. Nader can vouche for it.
