An unexpected treat today as these turned up

The mk1 realy is looker

Yeah its all good There's life and death going on so minor issue this

The seat project has stalled for now due to me awaiting new foams Heres why Hello from Capital SeatingMany thanks for your continued patience on delivery of your order from us for the RECARO parts. We are contacting you to provide an update on the status of your order.As you may well be aware, we have had great difficult recently in obtaining stock of many of the RECARO spare parts that we offer on our website. Normally these products are available from stock and can be supplied right away, however in this current climate, sourcing the parts from production is taking much longer than usual.The production site at RECARO has been dealing with a number of issues which have caused the delays in these products, including reduced labour capacity due to Covid-19 restrictions over the past year, limited supply of raw materials impacted by the pandemic throughout their global supply chain, and a move to a new logistics facility and order processing system that was initiated just prior to the global lockdowns which had implementation issues caused by the pandemic. These issues have created something of a “perfect storm” and as a result caused huge backlogs in manufacturing on these spare parts, as well as all seat production lines, which dates back right through 2020.Production are working tirelessly to supply these orders, but because of the unique situation it is very difficult to supply accurate delivery dates at this time. We were originally hoping for a large spare parts order to be delivered late-February but sadly this did not materialise. We are hoping for parts to be delivered on our next order in a few weeks’ time, however we cannot yet confirm exactly what will be due then.We appreciate the lack of clarity of delivery dates is disappointing, however rest assured we are constantly communicating with production to try and obtain clearer information, and as soon as this available to us we will let you know.We will continue to hold your orders and supply them when the parts are available. Alternatively, of course, should you not wish to wait any longer then we are happy to cancel your order and provide a full refund. If you would like us to arrange this then please just get in touch. It is worth noting however, that all orders are supplied on a first-come first-served basis, so if you do cancel your order then the parts will go to the next customer once they are available again. It potentially could be quite some time before our stocks return to a normal level. So if you still require the parts from your order then keeping your order in place will allow us to supply you as soon as possible.Ourselves and RECARO apologise for the difficult position we are in with regards to your order, but we are working hard to try and resolve it as quickly as possible. As soon as we know more then we will be in touch. Many thanks for your continued patience and support. but its the state of everything right now Fingers crossed I can get moving on them soon

What bits you after I have one in bits

https://www.ortizcustompods.com/index.html This guy also dose them

I have had both I'd go with invidia for sure Much nicer and if you ever run hfc or de cats it won't rattle like the cobra

Brilliant isn't it. I think for those that like to realy drive the car this little mod should be up there with the likes of the anti roll bars and exhaust suggestions as first mods

Next part of the puzzle arrived for the seats this week New leather/alcantara covers from recaro ready for the retrim I'm just waiting on the new back foam and seat base foams that I may be waiting a while for unfortunately

Save yourself the hassle buy a good one There's plenty out there

Next parts for the seat project arrived the genuine recaro rails for the z Now after some investigation it seems these are only available from recaro japan But luckily I chatting to a chap that had a set delivered from nengum in Japan and never fitted them So I managed to skip the lead time My covers and foam are delayed right now hopefully this week I'll see them and then ill update once the seats start going back together

Don't know how I missed this thred Lovely car mate I had the pleasure of driving my pals boxter spyder the other day and they are some beautifully put together machines

This dude makes those intakes and is known for messing with knock sensors to make numbers if you believe what the yanks say so I take it with a pinch of salt

https://www.pci-racing.com/product-category/seat-mounts/ These are good mounts I was going to go with these if I went fixed

I've gone for all recaro See how we go from there I've read a few things about those planted basses not fitting properly and level Are you going recliner or fixed ?

When I sat in them I could tell they wasn't for the larger chap like myself

Thanks mate I did look at your seats but I'm a bit wide hipped

Yeah this is a concern hence why I nearly went for poles and side mounted them But hoping I can get these somewhere near stock at least I would of thought if its mainly you driving the car its not an issue but on European trips etc when I share the car with people it wouldn't work to be fixed

Yeah they are realy comfortable I'm just working on that at the moment I definitely want to be able to slide it I was tempted by a pair of pole position but these came up to cheap

Cheers chap Foams are on back order from recaro for 3 weeks so recaro stopped play for now

I agree mines a tad under 500 and it just about feels like you can realy use it all any more power or tourqe for that matter and you would be managing the throttle constantly Built engine properly...10/12k

Yeah i saw this its definitely a more comprehensive solution But the Australian idea is good for those on a budget id say

So stripped the drivers seat today and unfortunately its seen better days Its a shame as the foam has just gone on the lip of the bolster and the bolster its self is solid Luckily these are readily available new from recaro so ill be ordering a new one tomorrow and the covers should be here next weekend
