Hey not a bad idea. I didn't realize you didn't have an interior til I saw your track video. Ha.
A guy named Rigo did the carpet. He did Mary P's interior as well. Down in San Martin if you are interested. Does nice work.

Thanks Bryce. Trans finally matches the motor I think. Ha.
Those are just NT-01's. 255 front and 315 rear.

You may soon be personally responsible for a jump in sales for those dawg boys.  |
It does seem tighter actually, and lighter and more "free" if that makes sense. Lighter clutch, aluminum driveshaft, and more dead weight removed. We'll see how it feels on the track. The street as we all know is no place for sustained power blasts or any real practice.
If you drive your PT car cross-country (and let's be honest, 98% do not) then probably not a good idea for dog box, but if you drive occasionally or shorter trips, I don't see why it cannot work out fine.

Interior came out perfect  |
Hell, I never even tried to hell-toe before, that was the issue.
Interior is nice and tidy and goes with the theme I think. Thanks

Great! 4th gear at 3500 rpm is right in the cruising sweet spot for this setup.
