[urq] urq driver seat wanted....

[Brandon Rogers]

For the stock look, the H1/H4 quads, when relayed and 80/100 bulbs installed 
will put out great lighting.  Of course the sloped and flat Euros will put 
out good light as well- especially when relayed and uprated bulbs installed.

G60s are probably the easiest upgraded front brake setu.  Although I think 
the A4 caliper setup has meit too, as it is lighter, but is only single 
piston.  That said it does fine stopping a 3400lb car (A4) all day long. 
For exotic upgrades that fit under stock wheels, there is I think an AP 
caliper, the Sport Q caliper, and the Porsche 968 calipers.  If theat is the 
route that soudns liek the way to go - other scan chime in on how to make 
them works - as I thing all require some creativity with rotors and/or 
caliper brackets.

As for the seat - I would think you could pick up a used urq set fairly 
cheap.  If you have the small bolster seats (normal for '84), this is the 
same seat as the CGT and same cushions as the 4kq - single bottom cushion. 
The bigger bolster seats have a 3-piece bottom.  Have you tried Chris 
Semple?  I would also think somebody out there has some sets laying around 
b/c they swapped in Recaros or something.

Hey guys... couple of questions.

  ok, paid a quick visit to the urq in storage over the weekend just to make 
sure she's resting comfortably... and boy she sure is purdy with one 
exception. My driver seat is toast. 8-(  black leather is pretty bad, small 
hole in bolster and the frame is tweaked. What are my options ?
  Found a really nice, low mileage replacement in a junker but I would have 
to buy the whole car and I already have enough, thank you very much. 8-) 
Any leads/ideas ?

  Next question: the car is an 84 but has the 4k H1 setup in there right 
now. Not very impressive IMHO. I'm thinking I'd almost like to go back to 
the stock setup if I could a) find a set and b) get decent lumens out of 
them.  Am I smoking crack?  or if not what should I be looking for ?

  Last question: I love the look of the car with the stock Ronals but would 
like to throw some better brakes under them. IS the 'g60 my only option ? 
Would love something a little flashier.... 8-)

  thanks,

  tom.
