booo hissss.....

I was thinking of running full race seats, but didn't think they would be comfortable for a long trip. Would I love a set of Zagato replicas? You bet, but $2500 for a set of seats isn't in the budget. Its really the only cost cutting and incorrect part on the car.

I remember this fella from a while back, I think Jalopnik or Petrolicious interviewed him. I wish him luck, Alfas deserve this treatment. Solid axles and all...

BTW, this Stanceworks article is laughable. Multiple pictures of decals on the rollcage and fluid reservoirs, but nothing of the suspension or undercarriage. They did, however, manage to focus a picture on a wrench-inflicted dent on a header tube.

Right - it says "build page" and for some reason I thought that meant "fabrication" and "prep." Just heavily edited Stance shots. I want to know about those drilled suspension arms.

I liked the Petrolicious video on this car.

Those trailing arms are punched and swaged and available from Alcoholics. I mean, Alfaholics (good products, stupid name).

How are those for long trips. I have a set of them in my Datsun, and I've found they get uncomfortable after about 2 hrs, but that could also be due to the fact that they are mounted directly to the floor boards (to keep my head under the roll bar with a helmet on.)

The guy I was buying the Sport seats from sent me one, with no headrests. After emailing him with no reply for a week, I reported him to ebay and got my $ back as well as keeping the one passenger seat, so I'm now exploring more options. As a side note, I didn't realize the sport seats had the sliders as an integral part of the seat so they likely wouldn't have worked anyway. I'm now thinking a set of Recaro LXs would be nice. Now to find an affordable set.

what color do you want? if you have to get those recaro's recovered, they will be really pricey.

you should be able to find a nice set of lx's for about 6 hondo.

Black would be great. The rest of the interior is black for the most part. $600 for a set of LX would be perfect.

What do you expect from something with the word "stance" in the name? The whole objective is to try and look cool, not show details that the driving experience minded enthusiast appreciates.
