Stage 3a - Recaro 1, and another 32/36

SWEET SEATS! I ended up with two passenger seats, but hey, I am poor. Someday I will see if I can get a driver’s seat. For now, I am stoked. I have only installed the driver’s side, as I need to make my own brackets for the other seat (I only got one set of brackets).

I plan on making a bracket set that will allow the seat bottom to sit back at a slight angle (I like that feature of my e30 seats, and I have grown used to it) and I hope to remedy a little of the “offset” driving position attendant to all ’02s. The stock (flat) seats allow you to sit to the inside a bit, so you can line up with the wheel. The Recaros don’t let you skooch. I want the brackets to skooch for me. We will see. Check out the rust on the existing bracket. Krylon. It’s not just Superman’s home planet anymore.

Yeah, yeah. Krypton. Geek.

Got a new 32/36. Car idles. Incredible. Jetting was better on old Weber - I will be switching jets. I foresee lots of fiddling…
