Club founder here :) . Let's make our cars' lights point at the ground and/or not go all the way down and ruin the aerodynamics! Brilliant!
How well does the WRX seat fit? Higher or lower than the stock seat? I'd love to find something a little lower for my car. I need some extra headroom.

I have s14 seats in my 240 and Overrated! Not really to comfy in my opinion. I did'nt like how the s14 are a little higher, the s13 seats sit lower which of course gives you a better center gravity. Dan your more than welcome to come sit in them . To try them out for yourself.
SloREX
09-21-2008, 11:29 PM
alright... well ull see the WRX seat sits high as fuck but its super comfy and im used 2 it... just gotta get the passenger one installed... let me know when i can check out the 240 colt like if ur available 2moro while im off!! lol

09-21-2008, 11:30 PM
S13 seats are just plain crap. There is nothing good about them. Unless you like sitting on a potato sack shaped like a seat.
S14 seats are better by far.
S15 Autech seats would be the best...if you feel like spending the money :mrgreen:

S13 seats are just plain crap. There is nothing good about them. Unless you like sitting on a potato sack shaped like a seat.
The XE seats are made out of a nice, soft cloth. I agree that the burlap ones aren't good, but the XE ones aren't too bad. That said, my S14 seats definitely have better lateral support. I do miss the little extra headroom, though. It was already tight for me with the stock seats.

Where did you get that? That's wrong.
Chassis codes:
S13 Silvia CA18DE(T)
RS13 180SX CA18DE(T) (R for hatchback)
PS13 Silvia SR20DE(T) (P for SR)
RPS13 180SX SR20DE(T)
KPS13 Silvia (K for SuperHicas)
KRPS13 180SX
HS13 240SX KA24E (H for KA24E)
RHS13 240SX HB
MS13 240SX (M for KA24DE)
RMS13 240SX HB
KRMS13 240SX HB w/ SuperHicas
So if you want to get technical, you can use your full chassis code. They are all S13s, though.

didnt c this therad up... im much lower on different wheels now. i will post some new ones up... and im still open 2 suggestions on what to do motor wise because im about ready to start saving for that... some say KA-T some say SR etc... so someone please tell me the goods/bads of each that yall know.. and yes leeroy i have hids and wrx seats and it wasnt much money out of my way
make hate.
Leeroy
10-16-2008, 12:01 PM
i am makin hate cuz you bought hids and were NEEDING tires! you go buy tires and not trade for another set of wheels.
go sr and youll be spending some money...
go ka, make sure its a good one that will be able to handle boost
best bet is slappin a t25/28 and calling it a day.
UncleBen
10-16-2008, 12:03 PM
i'll i'm sayin, is my KA boosted 7-11psi daily for two years. the cylinder walls look brand new to this day...
Everet's been boostin 7-15psi for longer than I was turbo'd, and at like 165k miles and redline everyday, his KA still eats it up.
and KA's have that lowend grunt an SR can only wish for. I've driven gt2871r powered SR's and there isn't any torque down low, I hate it. There's some power up top, but, I prefer not to have to rev really high to get any torque/power.

whats more reliable? and since the KA-T is a little cheaper than the SR.. i would probably only run psi since im un built.. im not lookin for dyno numbers. i just like to have fun :thumbup:
UncleBen
10-16-2008, 12:06 PM
apparently..
I've seen less KA's spin bearings while turbo'd than SR's :)
Leeroy
10-16-2008, 12:07 PM
ka-t by far is cheaper, but its still a 240 when it comes to reliability. gotta have some luck
UncleBen
10-16-2008, 12:08 PM
I"ve never had problems from any of my 240's unless I caused them. Get it boosted with a solid tune and have fun. A KA just has to have a solid tune on it and it will run fine.
SloREX
10-16-2008, 12:09 PM
