no rear interior!

[Mart160plus]

I took my interior out just before we came to the Ring (it\'s raining out, don\'t fancy lapping in that so watched the Grand prix instead).

Main point is the noise I think. If you have a loud exhaust then prepare for ear plugs. Road and rain noise isn\'t so bad. I think it looks ok on a street car used on the track, and the reduction in weight will go a little way towards the removal of air pump and air con from the front.

ok well i gess the interior is going back in till i have the money to get the cage in so on fitted...
 
like i said it was not 100% sure if i was going to keep it out anyways! and i think i mgiht take the dash out and refit a flocked stock one! dont really like the looks of my dash anymore!
 
as for the battery i was wanting to get a RE-A case as they have the fixing straps in them already and is all one unit!
 
and the steering wheel is a KR racing wheel
 
edit: my air pump and a/c pump are gone

So there would be no benefit to removing the rear seats and all the extra bits and pieces and also the passenger seat.  Going up to Rotorstock and taking my FD down the strip and thought that stripping out the interior may get me an extra 0.1 or 0.2 of a second.

One option, Envy - take the seats etc out, and just carpet the rear

Should add some sound deadening, and look slightly less industrial than bare metal...

But where would you sit to drive it with no seats? :Giggle Not too comfortable sitting on the floor, even if you do carpet it!

Just as a matter of intrest I have rear seats at the moment but because of my Brides I can\'t actually get anyone in the back.
 
Are the storage buckets a direct replacement for the back seat and does anyone know whether any other parts are required to fit them?

true but i like noise for some wierd reason, i like to hear what my car is doing!
 
and i want it to be a fast street/ track car sort of thing, sort of looking like this bad boy!

As long as the person\'s not too big, you can still squeeze someone into the back, mate

Either have them crawl between the seats (One pushed all the way forward, the other all the way back) or slide in after pushing the passenger seat all the way forward. Feet on one seat bucket, bum on the other... I\'ve sat in the back of mine for hours like that - asleep whilst someone else drove. No probs! :Thumbs-up

Original rear seats are also useful for chucking luggage into, etc. Never had the plastic bins but they may be noisier.. :Tongue1

I removed my rear seats to make my own storage bins. The seats with belts, bolts & all weigh in at 10kg.
 
I have a fake floor in the rear with my water injection setup bolted to it. Have not complete the rear bins as I do not have my half cage in yet.

Thats OK for my little sister, however I\'m sure my mum would prefer a slightly more dignified way in/out of the back :Giggle preferably without the use of a crane or a hydraulic ram.
 
98% of the time theres no one in the back anyway and we don\'t have or intend to have any little \'uns. It leaves more space for corpses, err.... sorry I mean overly large luggage.
