Pikey · 22-01-2008, 14:00

Just so I can get some attention

It matches his avatar and signature init.

Yeah as Pikey said, to take passengers out you need FIA seat, otherwise you don't need one. It's only the JDM allstars thing that mentioned that you NEED a passenger seat.

Also, about FIA stuff, Im actually having trouble finding fireproof stuff that ISNT fia homologated! It seems you either buy stuff that just plain isnt fireproof, or you buy FIA fireproof stuff. That Ears place Baba linked too is particularly good

Baba · 23-01-2008, 11:21

Yeah I found that too thats why I said might as well buy FIA. All the Non FIA stuff seems like its not fireproof. EARS are pretty good especially their clearance section.

FlikstRR · 23-01-2008, 11:47

aye, I got my helmet and harness from them

Baba · 23-01-2008, 12:56

So in other words a standard passenger seat would be ok?

Pikey · 23-01-2008, 13:03

A standard passenger seat would be useless.

Not if I can sleep in it at events

You can have a standard passenger seat, but you can't take passengers out. Which is fairly irrelevant anyway because we aren't allowed passengers.

For BDC practice/Licensing days my understanding is that you can take passengers out in any seat as long as you have a 4 point harness for the passenger side, because the licensing days aren't governed by the rules and regs.

If you drive a coupe like me you soon realise that having an FIA passenger seat isn't really an option because it makes getting stuff in/out of the back impossible.

Pikey · 25-01-2008, 12:37

Can someone answer my question about eyebolt mounting location please

is it acceptable to mount pull cables in the nearside wing or do they have to be through the bonnet?

DriftLexus · 10-02-2008, 17:57
