Yeah, but I weigh 20lbs less than you, so there!

Just kidding ... those seats look great in your car. Real suede -- imagine that!

Keep us posted on the diet plan, and BTW -- get me my strut tower bar please!!

My goal is 2900 and people tell me that I will not be able to do it without going loco. I think I will. We'll see. Only 130lbs left to go.

Imprezer · 03-19-2001, 01:35 AM

Well, my Mad Pikachu got some of its first baby fat removed today in persuit of its goal to be a 2900lbs WRX. I installed my STi V5 seats into the WRX. Each STi seat weights 10lbs lighter than the stock WRX seat. So, the car already weights 20lbs less than stock! Yahoo! That won't be easy. Plus, the STi seats are so much more comfortable than the stockers.

Since the stock seats have side airbags in them, the car of course tripped the "Air Bag" light. I have a way to fix that and have fully functional front airbags. Stay tuned for that.

For now, I will be honored to be called "The Lightest Street WRX" in the USA.

20 down, ~100 more to go!

Well, I would like to do the same if I can't sell my front/rear seats. Did you have the rear one?

I think you didn't!

Well, how does the interior compare (seats with door cloth? And were the rail bolt patern to the floor the same?

Thanks!
Leo

Imprezer · 03-19-2001, 01:52 AM

I didn't have the rears. The bolt pattern is the same. I also feel like I am sitting lower to the ground in the STi's and I like it like that. The fronts match pretty good with the rears. Same color black/blue. I will have some pics later today for you guys.

brucelee, Granola bars for dinner isn't a diet, its starving yourself. You should have a fine pt disclaimer stating your methods are only for the insane.
