  • In this episode we pick up the welder and start buzzing together a little seat bracket to throw in some Sparco seats into the drift car!
    I ended up making these seat brackets 2 times and they cost about $15 in materials to make each. The 1st was bad because the welder was set to the wrong polarity and dumb me didn't realize it. I also modified the second bracket slightly by cutting the two metal bars that connected to the sliders and cutting off the excess material in between to lose some weight.
    Having a seat that will hold you in while you're drifting around the pavement is key in order to help you maintain control of your driving so you're not just holding onto the wheel for dear life. It'll also save you from bruising your elbows and legs when you are getting tossed around in the car.

    Good job. Did a similar thing to fit s2000 seats in my z4 and it was quite the pain in the neck.

    Dope camera work. You need to crank the heat up on that welder though.

    You welded the bracket with the chair attached? Bruh

  • @arthurmolina9426
    @arthurmolina9426 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I had a question. When you made your brackets and bolted everything on, did you sit higher compared to the original seats? Or did the height feel about the same?

    • @derkm
      @derkm  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I sit a little lower than the original seats. There are way better ways to make it and I'm probably going to go a different route later down the line 🤙

      From a local metal supply shop! They're pretty generic materials so you should be able to find a local metal supply shop nearby with them 👍

    • @derkm
      @derkm  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I got the seats second hand and dont remember the name unfortunately. They're no longer produced but I would recommend getting a seat with side mounts so you can get side mount brackets and adjust the tilt and setup on the seat better 😁
