fredrik94087 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 The seat idea is just that. I can drop at least 40# with two front seats but wife would be all out of sorts. It would be a fair "plug and play" with the only bracket for our cars...and whatever mod needed for the air bag sensor fix. If it doesnt happen oct 5, I still plan on it at some point.

I am not sure how difficult it is, but I know a lot of people swap seats out just for track day. That would keep the wife happy.

Other than that I am just planning on hanging out and helping / learning. so this is going to be at my house so I don't have to drive anywhere right? It's all the same too me.

Chris GTO TT Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Seats are a piece of cake, 4 bolts and a few plugs and generally they pop right out the door. 2003 Baja 5MT 2016 Outback 2.5i Premium w/Eyesight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decisions decisions....I will post on here if I go for it and if parts will be here by oct 5. I have back to back track day weekends and gonna have some work done on the car mid week. Feels too short of a time to decide what I want and order it. Either way, I will be quite happy to meet up with all you guys.

Chris GTO TT Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I should say I've never pulled Legacy seats out but the cars I have pulled seats out of, while much older, were a piece of cake. 2003 Baja 5MT 2016 Outback 2.5i Premium w/Eyesight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wpmarky Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Yep, I installed this whole set-up without them the first time around. It was miserable. I think all of my strut top bolts has come loose at some point because of it. Using loctite this time around. I leave the pass-thru sockets and allen keys in my car because they kept coming loose. I have pass through and allen keys and 2 sets of spring compressors #suspensionwhore my list: sway bars radiator (yes again) HID's foggy headlight polish spark plugs TBE gasket refresh oil change plastidip wheels I miss having a garage =\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGTfoLIFE Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 If you guys need tools let me know ahead of time so I can bring them home from work. I might even have an engine hoist by that time in case someone needs to do something crazy! If you can get crows wrench from your work that would be great. I need to install my oil pressure gauge but don't have that kind of wrench. Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FJuan Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I have a set of crows, if I make it up I'll bring them. Otherwise, Habor Freight has them for less than $15. My wife's balls are delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont have the ability to do stainless or aluminum yet, I need a $250 wire spool gun before I can weld those materials. I can do steel tho.
