well i have been working on the car and today i installed the long tubes and shorty h went in no problem easier than the factory shortys haha. but of course shit always goes wrong the 02 sensors were stuck in the old pipe one i got out and one is still in there weird thing is there new, but i will pick some up tomorrow so i can get this thing back on the ground.
I'm installing long tubes and am having the worst time ever lol u didint have a prob lol car looks nice
it was simple put the car on jack stands, undo the motor mounts, put a board on the jack and jack up the motor a few inches. the drivers side went in from underneath and the passengers side went in from the top. they fit perfect i have an 1/8 -3/16 inch space between my starter and about a 1/4-3/8 inch space between steering shaft. i would like an all manual steering setup but thats for the future.
heres an UPDATE! i just got a good deal on a set of front and rear seat from a 1990 gti. the front seats are recaro's and are so much more comfortable than the stockers its like heaven for my ass. now i have to find a way to use my seat tracks to make them work. since im 6'3" tall i will make it so they sit lower and go back farther, now i can tilt my steering back down. will post update pics when im done.
i planned on taking the rear seat out all together. i would like to find a red door if i can but until then it can stay, it open closes and locks thats all that matters
well i got the drivers seat all bolted up, and it fits like a glove sooo much better than the stock seats now i sit about 2 inches lower and an inch farther back its awesome if you look at the pics i used a nut as a spacer cause i need a lil clearance between the mustang rail and the recaro seat everything works flawlessy. one of the best mods i made so far, and these seats saved me around 30 lbs
