The stock 240 seats suck
Mine are loose and very jerky and evil

I will be getting seats for it as soon as i diagnose and fix the problem with the engine *shakes fist at problems*

you have to pump the gas to get her started
not just one or 2 pumps...but sometimes a gazillion

its an RB20 engine.
we have a upgraded fuel pump in her.
it was fine when the fuel pump went in at first but now...well...i wont start it cuz i am scared of floding the engine..lol

this was my ex's car i helped out with the build...he always drove it.
it's my car now..lol
i have never driven it....i cant drive stick yet...
its still in the body shop getting paint and body work done.

so major diagnosis and new parts will be happening this winter hopefully

im probly looking around the $300 range im pretty small lol and 5'4" soo the sparko sprint is to low for me i know the buddy club and bride low max are good seats for me so as long as the momo doesnt sit me to low it should be ok

I had the same issue you are having when I was looking for a seat to put in the Type-R. I'm short 5'2" with stubby legs :) so even the openings for the harness in the buddy club seat were too high.

I ended up getting a Type-S Bride seat and it fits amazing. It was definitely more money that I had planned to spend on a seat but it made a huge difference on the track. No more holding myself against the dead pedal when cornering.

I'll ask around and keep my eyes open for a good seat in your price range.
