Lol quick spin around block to warm through and clean brakes ended up being a 1hour cruise and got home nearly twice..
What a machine....gonna sell buy an sti...gonna sell buy a yaris...gonna sell buy a lotus...gonna sell buy a gtr...lol
Then i fall in love with it again after a drive.
Cracking careful part throttle pulls and cruising on slimey damps roads. AC DC back in black playing on stereo.

Well its rx7 time.
Time to spruce up the interior.

After ALOT of toing and froing..ive decided to keep the car as near track spec as possible. It just seems sacrialege to change it so buckets staying.
( Matt if youve still got your seats and im in the area i will defo have ).
So my interior is rather tatty.
Faded seats. Faded harnesses and gaffer tape hold the plastics inplace.
So i looked at new Cobra Suzuka seats and at £600 ea and more cost effective solution was needed... fat stubby marker pens £14.00 for x2 blue and then 2nd cost x2 black.

Seats out 6 point harnesses out and clubman 4 points going in. Easy in out.
Whilst seats out can tackle plastics.

Hey Jon. Yep I still have 2 standard seats covered up in my garage. Not a problem if you don't want/need them now, just let me know either way. Happy to hang on to them if you do and will be heading "down south" at some point.

Seats look great ! I hope the ink doesn't transfer as things get "hot and heated" around the track
