I’m with ya! My wife tracks too and she knows @DarkZupra’s seats all too well (and his garage, lol). I’ve slowly conditioned her to what a great idea and purchase those seats would be ?. I need to call the company and see how much it’d cost for all red leather and ability for a 5 point harness.
Maaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnn, I've mentioned it here before, but the GT4 was my first choice in fun cars when I bought the Supra. My theory was, because I know I'm going to crash the car on the track at some point, I would feel like shit binning a GT4. With the Supra, while I'd still feel bad, at half the cost, I'd just replace it with another Supra. Overall, I'm glad I went with this platform, though. It's fun as hell to drive and modify and it's hard to beat the B58 (I've been a BMW fan for a long time). I was hoping to do a little snow birding myself, but we sold a family condo on Longboat Key, FL a couple of years ago... right before I bought the Supra damnit!
Duuuuude…. I had a really good friend that also had a S2000s. I was tracking way before he put his S2K diapers on and got him driving on track. He was an awful driver, lol. Until he hired John Dean, MX5 cup champ of all time, to teach him how to drive on track. Next thing you know he was the fastest amateur in no time. It was insane!!!!!
What? You bent a second one? wtf are you doing man? Why does the wrench surface looks like it was gnawed on by a trash compactor?
Insert tie rod no. 2. At least these parts are accessible and cheap (compared to Porsche).
DO they really bend that easily? Is there an upgrade available for beefier tie rods?Duuuuude…. I had a really good friend that also had a S2000s.

When I finally get this car decently setup, I‘m definitely hitting John Dean up to drive with me and get some baselines in this car. If he still does this sort of thing in Sebring. But I know what he’ll say, no matter how well I set up my car, I have to have a real seat. Period! So here I am debating on a pretty seat vs a great functional seat that’ll cost thousands less… ??
And with you on the GT4. I like to drive my car hard. I’d hate to be worried about running off track, 2-4 wheels, and getting a little dirt on my wheels or undercarriage. Or even breaking something.

No, they do not.
My man @FLtrackdays is taking every curb.
If there was, I would have bought it, lol. I was conscious to run off less on the right side until the new one came in. Hahaha…. You should be fine dude.
When I track out, I track out… ?
Something that may help - the CARiD configuration tool. As an example: https://www.carid.com/sparco/sparco-evo-qrt-series-fiberglass-racing-seat.html. If you setup the correct vehicle (your model year Supra) on the site, go to a seat like the one linked above, and hit "Product Options," it will tell you what you need to install the seat in the car (with the assumption of reasonable accuracy), if the part is required or optional, and if it is vehicle-specific or universal. I love the site, but I've never ordered anything from them before. I'd love to hear from someone who has to know what their experience has been.
