All the work was done by Custom Car Performance and PowerZamCam and I XTC Autostyles who's not pretty much merged with CCP. Gotta give everyone thanks for helping me out alot over the yrs working on this thing. =)

The interior is a bit lacking compared to outside which looks great.

What's the point of fixed seats? Especially on the passenger side? I don't think your car races every time it drives. Why not just get light adjustable seats and use the fixed seats when you need it? It takes only 5 mins to swap each seat.

races most of the times it drives, my daily driver is a jeep. Fixed seats because i'm 6'1 and with my helmet i do not fit. I had to make custom seat brackets, reshape the floor pan on the driver side, removing the cat hump on the floor all so i can fit with my helmet. And i don't care about passenger side. the only reason i have a pas. side seat is to keep in my class for time attack.

feels weird because i have nothing left to shop for parts on lol, but i still got some engine issues and tuning left. So I guess now i can spend the money on gas instead of mods. Next season I want new wheels and tires.
