Quote from: BlitzBoy;618851Well lucky Shaun you dont want to enter a Drag Series because neither cages being talked about in your thread are legal for a Drag racing series lol

Be great if you do enter the Nippon, that would make 3 Rx7s in the series.

Have you had any luck finding somebody to build you a cage ?? Surely you could buy blueprints from USA ?

Installed seat yesterday using some custom 3mm Steel brackets on the standard rails bolting onto the side of the seats. A little too high for my liking so will be making some mods to them in the new few weeks after rotorstock.

Seats actually fit nice in the drivers side without touching any of the interior.

Next plan is to do the mods then order a 2nd seat and then start stripping the interior out over a month or two to see what it feels like.

The standard ones are 3mm steel and 6mm Alloy and they are definitely meaty !

I\'m still investigating. Hope you complete your challenge so I can have a proper gander and hopefully a sit in your car ! Insurance will be another challenge in the mix !
