lol one of them thing's you need for the power it makes.




















more rare parts from japan ! my new PIAA Nakajima Racing wheels 16x8 5x100 ET38 made by RAYS or ENKEI 17lbs..

they have that T37 volk look but five star style to them which should make them pop on my square body once i sand blast and have them painted Subaru gold !

the sparco grid aka drift was very comfy like I could drive it cross country lol.. this Recaro is snug and id say its comfy with more of a sport track seat, the momo was horrible didn't fit me right at all so annoying.














Collecting parts for the wagon build and stripping it down for paint and motor work coming soon

I looked at the Sparco grid and to me it has the same lower shape as the OEM seats - very little lumbar support, which is what I need. Maybe I need to go to an aftermarket parts store and try out some seats
