a big thanks to all my friends who helped me a lot during the build

tuna cans FTW! get this car done OTTI!

fantastic project...

how to put sparco pro 2000 so low?????

with the stock sparco seatmounts :D
actually the drivers seat is about 2cm higher than the passenger seat
since the tüv demands that the drivers seat has to be adjustable :mad:
thanks anyway :)

i just watchet the pics in your thread again and it really seems that your seats are much higher than mine could you make a pic of the seat mounts you are using??
i´ll try to find a pic of mine in the meantime!

thank's otti... I have custom built seat mounts but I can't go moore low...

what is the size of your pro 2000?

I found a photo of seat mount...

I don't have any photo of the under seatmounts, but only over...

this is from toora...

my seatmonts looks totally different than mine since the race style mounts are not street legal in germany.
my are two partet. basicly a 40/40 angle bar with 3 holes in the front ad a H-bar in the back.
sorry i cant find any pics either, if i would be closer to the car i would snap some but
i am not even in the same country:-(
the seats are the only size that has been available at the time i bought them...
lets put it this way i need to do some serius training to be abled driving the car next year

the only pic i found where you can see the end of the front mount

in italy is all illigal, so I don't have this problem...

can you take the size of your seat in centimeters?circa....

did you cut the central point of attack on the chassi?in the middle of the seats?

may I ask you the seatmount code (from sparco) or the model, and the same for the seat?

so I can compare with my set up....

thank's

this is the mount
and the seat:
Vnr - Glassfiber.: spa-00857FAZ
this is from the norwegian sparco import, i dont know if the numbers are equal in all countrys??!!

i didnt need to cut anything but i was wondering how you mounted yours??
with the pics above the mount seems to be where the the frame goes in mine?!
do you have your seats so far back? i could not reach my pedals if i would...
my driving position is like on the pic above....

perfect... for the size...

ok so your seat mount are plug & play?


today I contact sparco Italy for have some info...

my seat have toora side mount and under there is a "chassis" custom built on original style mk1....

the driving position is very bad, becouse are to mutch higt... but for the distance to pedals I'm ok

yes they are plug and play. i did modify them a little because the were pushing against the seat valence a little.
here a pic of my friend testing the seat position, he is 175cm high


to compair :)

love it!

thank you, i love it too ;)
i am going home for christmas, lets hope the weather is like last year(10degees and sun) then i willl go to the proper wheel alignement and take her on the autonahn to check for issiues and top speed.
i still need to mount the lower dash and fix the exhaust hitting problem.
unfortunately i ran out of money last time and the car still has no tüv :(
we will see if i can make that happen this time.....

christmas updates!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i am working hard, for you and for me :thumbup:
