In the past week my car just got a replacement passenger side head, had too many plug blowouts on that side and got a reman Windsor head with Timeserted inserts on each cylinder spark plug well. The shop got it all together and caught up with some regular maintenance (s belt, oil change, coolant change and flush, replaced o rings on water pump etc.)

My buddy has a S2000 and bought one of my other buddies Corbeau A4 black cloth seats out of his race Integra. Long story short, he needed cash and reinstalled his stockers and sold me these. I bought the brackets from AmericanMuscle. The swap took about an hour with some screwing around between us. I have had them in about 3 days now, and although you sit a bit shorter in these seats, they are just as comfortable as my worn out stockers with 120k miles.

I know the car needs a thorough detail, and that will be coming in the next couple of weeks!

Wow, they look great! By sit a bit shorter, you mean closer to the ground? I would love that, I've always wished the stock seats could go a little bit lower.

Indeed. At 6'3" the tall ride height is probably the only thing working against me buying an SN95 in the future. After test driving numerous hard tops and convertibles I have to say it sucks looking out through the tint on the top of the windshield when you're driving.
