Re: recaro rails, what are my options?

I fitted a set of Recaro's in my SW20. What I did is get a set of Recaro sliders (don't know if they are for some other car model, or the same for every car, at least they fit my seats). And then I drilled and grinded the parts of the original rails where the bolds go in (just bought some old destro...

Re: Connecting seat belt to fuel tank tunnel stud?

Hope your right, I have no idea how thick the metal is where the stud is in and if it will hold in case of a crash. That's why i'm in doubt.

Connecting seat belt to fuel tank tunnel stud?

I got a new set of seats in my MR2. But they don't come with rails which allow you to connect the seat belt "clicking device". So I need to find an other place now to install this. On the fuel tank tunnel there is a stud which is used for some slider bar on the original seats. Could I use ...

[Mk2] [Generic] Rear wheel arch rolling, what about the sidestrips?

Next Saturday I'm getting the rear wheel arches rolled of my MK2. I was just wondering if anyone else had this done to his car, and what you did with the sidestrips. The sidestrips mount on the inside of the wheel arch of the MR2. So did you just only roll the upper part of the arch, and did this gi...

Re: Best way to fit Recaro STD/Speed in a MR2

As you have the recaro rails you just need the metal tags off the stock seats (riveted on) and then bolted or welded to your rails like http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&ved=0CEIQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mr2oc.co.uk%2Fknow-your...

Re: Best way to fit Recaro STD/Speed in a MR2

Nope, the rails don't link directly to the floor. The link to the seats and than the bottom part of the rail should be attached to some kind of bracket that connects to the floor of the MR2. Something like this:

Best way to fit Recaro STD/Speed in a MR2

Recently I bought a set of Recaro STD seats (came out of a Integra I guess). Now I'm looking to fit them into my MR2 with sliders, but I want to fit them as low as possible and safe of course. I got some original sliders already and they fit the seats. They are like this: http://173.74.246.28/ktmtal...

Yep thats the "bad" thing of it. But it still gives a bit better braking performance than normal, and it looks better than having the small MR2 brake discs behind 18" rims.
