so my BF picked this RCI racing bucket up at work

for 15 bucks.

his boss(my step dad) told him told him that he should either get the seat out of the barn or he was going to throw it out. I never asked for it, nor did he, because well.........

it was just so mint.

so I now I got 2 buckets for 15 bucks......... now I have a touch choice on which one is the better choice

the recaro has lumbar support, fully reclinable, and is so mint it is stupid. I was a bit dusty....... but damn I still feel bad for getting it for free.

then again he is running custom seats built buy a guy who does all of the disney rides now...... so this is his left overs from his old GNX.

a little welding rod and flux.......

grandpa,step dad, uncle, bf............. all run one of the biggest welding shops in the s/e

I could probably run recaro rails, but its just as easy for them to make me a mount.

Looks to me like you spent a bunch on the harbor freight jack as well! It's convenient though. Although I still don't dig the rims

actually thats my BFs jack. my step dad has a craftsmen and a 2 post lift for working on cars at home.

my BF just uses the HF jack, and borrows the lift when needed .

Digging the wheels what are those Diamonds?

Ive been flirting with the idea of going with that style rim, but hadnt seen a good example of it. Till now.

no they are off the shelf drag wheels. diamonds look like crap IMO.

installed a whip antenna and got rid of the crap power antenna that never worked.

waiting for my tail light to get her

Post by **ca18detgabby** » Sun Aug 09, 2009 5:05 pm

fresh tails WITHOUT LEAKS! hehe

need to get into the spray booth ASAP. the recaro seat is "in" but I need to measure and drill the holes. need to lower it too, as this isnt for offroading....

Post by **zero_gripS13** » Mon Aug 10, 2009 6:21 pm

MORE LOW! lol.. looks good but it needs lowered seriously.. even if its just some springs.

they do, for 1/4 the price, I didnt have to wait, and I really dont like the flat black rim. I also enjoy the lip

summit carries a bunch of different styles in low offsets. they even have a easy to use search, unlike jegs. ive given up on jegs....

Diamonds come in other colors its just people are too lazy to ask for the chrome or whatev and all end up with that tired looking matt black.

At sub 300 your wheels are a steal, and they definitely look badass. Ill keep shopping around till i find a decent size for a decent price. I really dont feel like going 5 lug.

yeah I refuse to go 5 lug. I had been holding out because I detest sport max and couldnt jusify spending madd tyte JdM rim money. I was actually talking with my BFs brother and happened to come across these 4 luggers(4x4.5 is what they call them)........

even cheaper than sport max and I got them in like 3 days. they have a 15x8 as well(I didnt even look at the 16s), for a dollar more, but are a -19 offset .

Post by **ca18detgabby** » Sat Aug 15, 2009 5:28 pm

been working some things out with the rails. BF retro-fited some maro rails to fit the S13(god was that a mess)

O yeah and the rarest part of this 240............

rattle canned a color other than flat black

picking up a set of KYBs+Eibachs on monday

Post by **ca18detgabby** » Sun Aug 23, 2009 4:20 pm
