yup, doesn't work... i have lude seats for my ef and the only way to do it is custom fabing some brackets that will bolt up to your seat/car... not fun unless you know someone that works at race-weld ... I'm getting my buddy who welds to do it for me...
Tippy - ill let u know how it turns out, if it works out good, ill see if i can get a custom set made 4 u too. ud have to give me the dimensions tho. -- unless your happy with no movement

I already have them. They came on my stock seats, lol.

I got both seats bolted up now with recliner's working. Again, I had to sacrafice the sliders, but I adjusted them how I want them before-hand. They looks sexy as hell. Real nice...

Get some pics of what you had to do and write up a DIY for it once you get it all working.

It's all working now, and they look great! A how to would be kinda pointless. It would say: Make custom spacers. Curse repeatedly. Repeat for other seat.

I used the civic rails and the CRX pan. Hence the extensive modding.

My friends at the meet scared me into thinking more about my nitrous setup:

- Walbro 190 lph fuel pump. ($79)
- NGK two step colder plugs.($18)
- WSD Window Switch to cut off nitrous before redline. ($89)
- Replace headgasket with 3 layer metal Z6 headgasket ($60) and ARP headstuds. ($110)
- Replace T-belt, Water Pump, and Tensioner while I'm at it... ($145)
- Run a PG7 ECU to make the car run richer.
- Retard timing 3 degrees.
- Run 116 Sunoco race gas when spraying, to ward off detonation.

<U>Total Cost: $356.</U> Grrr... now i need more <FONT COLOR="green">$$$</FONT>

That should ease my fears of blowing my daily...

<U>***Update 9/19/06***</U>

I made some progress in the bay today. I wrapped all the wiring in loom and then made some brackets for the nitrous soldenoids. The soldenoids and brackets are going to be painted flat black. Then the fuel and nitrous lines will be covered in wiring loom so nothing looks suspicious.

<U>BEFORE:</U>




<U>AFTER:</U>




Soldenoids Brackets:






It started to get dark so the pix kinda suck. Sorry!

Thanx man. The bay will be even nicer when I rip this goddamn AC out. It is gonna clean it up soooo much! There are lines and wires and **** everywhere, not to mention the goddamn compressor and belts. That will save some power and weight to boot.

I am off all thursday and friday so I will finish the nitrous. Should be sweet!

<U>***UPDATE 9/21/06***</U>

Me and MooGoCow3 did some work on the car today. Got my valves adjusted and all nice. No more ticking! Did my brakes, pedal feel is so much better. We also did a compression test on the engine to see how healthy it was for the upcoming spray.

<FONT SIZE="4">210, 210, 211, 210.</FONT>

Doesn't get any freaking better than that does it?!

I also assembled the nitrous soldenoids and hoses and Piranah nozzle. Gonna mount it tomorrow. Everything is getting wrapped. Supa stealth.

Heater core is staying, I need that, lol. AC compressor, belt, all lines in the bay, and all wiring and relays for it are going. Should free up some weight and crank losses. Not to mention the room in the bay.

A supa clean EG hatch with an OBD1 ZC in it. Nice ride...
