Why don't you just find the highest trim of your car and use those seats? A lot of the time they're recaros and fixed back seats just aren't that comfortable

>>14161877
I have a 1993 300zx TT, I have the highest trim already and they stop at about the bottom of my neck

Don't buy cheap knock off seats, they are probably more dangerous than your stock seats.

If you want a safer seat look into a fixed back OMP or similar that is FIA certified and won't crush your spine or fold flat in an accident. A real safe seat will support your spine in an accident.

Fair enough, the only thing I plan on doing right away is the intake. I guess what I'm asking is for a list to work on throughout the cars life.

How much did you pay?

3 tires?

I want to say you're right, but damn the Jedi Mind Trick is fucking strong with that guy. Right now I'm even questioning my shit.
Fuck

It's pretty standard these days to have 2 new tires on the rear, regardless of drive train layout. The idea is that the front of the car already has more control due to steering (and thus has more direct driver input) the rear is where any fishtailing or otherwise lack of grip comes from. I was confused by this at first, but thinking it over and taking into account my own experience with solely FWD cars, I'd decided it did make more sense.

But why they'd refuse is a mystery to me. If it's a policy, that's bullshit. If it's not then he's a cunt.

Half of us know they are great cars. The rest blindly hate Mazda.
No one knows why.

ive heard a lot of good about them. theres definitely an upper limit of how much power you can reasonably put on that frame due to FF and what
>>14161698
said

they can be pretty damn quick though

watch out for the spontaneous catastrophic failure that can arise from the high boost DI engine setup though. never ever floor it in 6th

are you stupid like what the fuck?

*Facepalm*

You might as well buy a cheap manual SC300 and build the 2J that's already in it, not to mention, already RWD

do you care about your car?

if yes then please don't.

ALSO This is now a QTDDTOT

>>14161211
Ah, an S1 Elise. A car that makes a 1984 C4 Corvette seem like it has the build quality of a Lexus.

>>14161217
if you're referring to how spartan it is with the interior and features, that's what i like about it. i want a car that is barren and simplistic. it makes me appreciate driving that much more.

OP here. More details.

Using factory Bose amp. Just have a new HU.

Low level outputs of HU are soldered right into the factory radio harness. From there to the amp, the bundle of low level cables are shielded.

For some reason, I ONLY get the whine when I have the right front signal cable plugged into HU. I switch it and plug it into the front left, rear left, or rear right of the HU and still get whine. So it isn't HU output specific. It's specific to the amp's right front input. I even tried running a separate line from my new HU's right front directly to the amp's input harness.

That being said, the whine completely goes away when I plug the factory HU back in. To the same plug that my new HU is plugged into.

tl;dr
Old head unit into factory harness = No whine
New HU into factory harness = Whine
Unplug amp's FR low level in = No whine
Plug amp's FR low level into any HU output = Whine

>>14161183
It's a ground. IDGAF what you checked. You have a bad ground somewhere. Could even be internal in the head unit.

>>14161202
forgot to add factory amps can also fuck up with aftermarket head units. get rid of factory amps.

If it doesn't have the australian flag in the background its automatically shit
