@JP - they are on the Evo rails with EP feet welded on. Other than a quick lick of hammerite on the welds, and a cheeky look to see if i can mount the crutch straps to the sub frame, they will pop straight in and be fully compatible with the Willans harnesses. That was the whole point of these. One of my existing rails died a while back, and whilst looking at solutions, I didnt want to end up with some new seats and no means of fitting them as I don't have the contact to make up universal rails that I had originally a few years back. That's why I was looking for GT seats for so long, as th

Cheers JP! Only pics I have are from the seller (WallaceGlanza - super lad to deal with by the way!!!!!). Mark will cast his eye over them for me no doubt once he tucks them up at his place next weekend. I'll see about adding some pics if Mark takes any, or uploading some of Wallace's. Once these are paid for - and I arrange for a new sofa for the house which was the deal with the wife lol - I'll be going back to what I was working on; Jay has a set of old lower arms that I'm going to have refurbed and powder coated. These will get new ball joints and track rod ends, perhaps some new bushe

welcome to the mad house! I remember a few years ago, a couple of american chaps came over to my work from our US factory, one of them owns a TRD MR2, treats it like a child. We got talking and he had never heard of a starlet let alone one that could give his MR2 a good run for its money - naturally I felt the need to enlighten him! Good to have you along dude! Phil.

cheers all!! I had been eyeing them up last week, and whilst driving home from work on Friday, I caught myself just sitting thinking about them. One thing led to another, and boom. Mark is kindly collecting them for me, hopefully next weekend all being well, so now all I need to do is find a way to get them from Mark to me. Anyone driving through Ayr with space to carry two seats in the next few months will receive beer or whiskey for their troubles!!! Phil.

A bit curious about the power to weight ratio
Nanglebadger replied to TheAmerican's topic in Lifestyle General
Agree with everything Phil has said above. Another benefit of them is that they are relatively easy to reduce the weight of also, thereby increasing the power to weight ratio without having to spend any monies on the power aspect. My own is stripped out from the driver's seat backwards, excluding handling accessories of course lol. Lots of fun to be had with them, even at modest power set-ups, hence why I am happy with a Blitz K1-powered set-up, plenty of power and super response to have lots of smiles! Phil. -
OFFT! All the way from page 3 of the N/As section! Nothing since June 2014! On the plus side, I have an update that at least makes up for my inactivity. Just put a deposit on a set of Evo 7 Recaros. Will take a few months to get them transported over to NI, but its worth the wait. Kind of interupts the plans I was working on in the back ground in regards to suspension and some powder coating, but I have coveted a set of these since I first saw Joz's seats many years ago, and this weekend I just thought "fuck it". Plus, the wife said they looked nice, so really its all her fault fo

Adjustable RARB users: What setting do you run?
Nanglebadger replied to Amjad's topic in Chassis & Suspension
Been running mine as medium since it was installed, but thinking of going to the hard/tight setting when it goes back on the road. Phil. -
Black GT - Templepatrick NI
Nanglebadger replied to Nanglebadger's topic in I Spy, Have You Been Spotted?
nope. Passenger seat in the Mrs' car, pitch black, all I caught sight of was the rear lamps. Arent that many GTs kicking about that area, so it can only be one of select group, so could well be him. Phil. -

new to the forum (sort of) from the midlands
Nanglebadger replied to ashep91's topic in Welcome New Owners!
welcome! Phil. -
After 6 years of uni, I still didnt know what I wanted to do, so I took a full time job in food retail for a while. Through some acquaintances, I wound up in the pharma industry which so far has been superb and has allowed me to do all the grown up things that old farts like me do, like buy a house, buy a nice daily driver, get married, etc etc. I appreciate that university is not for everyone, that said, although my degrees are not relevant to what I do now nor will they ever be, the very fact that I had them was all that was needed to open the door to this industry, and once in, know
