Not feeling the love anymore? I travel so much that I barely get to drive it as is, and add onto that I find myself in the 6 more and more.

 

[bazooka joe]

are you kidding? remember when you were going to sell the 6? i can't get enough of the car....too bad she has to go into hibernation end of the month...

 

[subspeed6]

Flip-Flop?

 

[Reitrof]

Bingo. Hell dude, have you even broken 40k miles on it yet? You don't even have the issues that I have making me want to burn mine to a crisp.

 

[subspeed6]

Haha yeah I have. I'm at like 40500 miles.

Honestly, I think it is the seats that are killing it for me. They are definitely not stock and they sit a bit too high. I've also tossed the idea around of doing a Hydra-ectomy and putting the stock ECU and injectors back in; while also dropping the boost down to around 8-9 psi.

btw I saw that picture of the asshole who decided his car needed to kiss yours on the nose. I would have taken out his valve stems and leave him sitting there.

 

[WillD]

What seats are in your car subspeed?

 

[roy obanion]

Ordered a roadster sport 3

 

[bazooka joe]

chris, i'm running 9 psi (with the voltage clamp) and i love it! ya, what seats you have in there?

 

[bazooka joe]

Flip-Flop?

tony?

 

[subspeed6]

I have what look like stock leather MSM seats, but the stitching isn't red and they sit a lot higher than other NB seats. I don't want to buy new ones, but I would like to find someone to trade me.

 

[WillD]

Did you already try the foamectomy on them? You could sit probably 3-4" lower depending on how much foam you take out and I think it makes them more comfortable too.

i definitively need to do that

 

[WillD]

I was hesitant but it definitely is worth the time. I used an electric carving knife which made it extremely easy to get the amount of foam I wanted out.

 

[chiefmg]

I did a foamectomy on my original driver's seat and it helped immensely. Now that I have the NB2 seats, while the overall comfort level is increased I miss sitting a bit lower. When I get the leather covers to redo them I'll be cutting out some foam. I am also considering getting some purpose-made closed cell foam to see if that will let me go real low while maintaining my butt padding.

 

[WillD]

I've read about people doing that with extremely favorable results.

so I've heard, but I don't own a carving knife so I've been putting it off

Started and drove it for the first time in a few weeks... started right up, but the MSI tune is doggy in the cold.
