I stumbled upon this thread again somehow, and decided it deserved a resurrection because I have made so many further improvements to the 944...

Suspension has come the furthest with Bilstein sports replacing the stock struts, Weltmeister 200lb springs replacing the 1.25 inch higher 125 (i think?) lb springs, 19mm rear and 26.8mm front sways replacing the 14mm and 21.5mm stock items, and a KLA strut tower brace:



And the interior has seen the addition of a MOMO Club3 wheel.



It's looking more and more likely that the interior will see another MAJOR improvement... possibly by the end of the day. Any guesses?

Ding ding ding, Dave is the winner.

I can do you better than OEM sport seats... and a whole lot lighter...

of course! WEIGHT WEIGHT WEIGHT... I don't want passengers in the back

(i think I have had passengers in my back seat exactly twice since I bought the car in summer 2000)

Well, I removed the rear seatback and hatch area cover thingie - that was plenty heavy. I might wait awhile to remove the rear seats themselves... after I do an AC delete, and install these bad boys:



Yup, that's right, as of tonight I ordered a pair of 19lb Corbeau Forza seats. I already can't wait to put them in! How much do the stock seats weigh, again?

The same seats in Tifosiman's car:





Tifo fabricated his own brackets for these seats, so I may try the same thing if he wants to walk me through it; otherwise, I will try to find the brackets for cheap
