The Stock seats are actually uncomfortable to me. I feel way too high, I don't know it just bothers me. I ride in the new Lexus' and I actually feel uncomfortable during long rides. Try adjusting the manual **** which raises the front of the seat higher.

I love sitting low, just like a real sports car should be.

Thats what i was thinking of doing, i just dont think the stock seat bolts are long enough to still bolt in with too many washers or shims, Maybe i can find some longer bolts with the same thread pattern.

alright, well you guys have convinced me to give it another try, and put the seats back in and actually drive it somewhere instead on just sitting in my driveway.

mine have the little bar in front to pull up and slide them forward and backward, they also have the manual pull thing for adjusting the back of the seat, they dont appear to be modified at all. but one problem is that they dont have seatbelt brackets, and i dont know where i should mount the seatbelt clip... any suggestions?
