Pics of the new Recaro seats!




Ok, ok, if you haven't figured it out by now, these aren't Supra Recaros. Traded the wife's miata in (it's been hit-and-run 3 times since February '07) - traded it in for $11,000 even (owed $10,800) and picked this up for $13,999



2005 Saturn Ion Redline + Performance Package. Original sticker in '05 was $22k. One hell of a depreciation, I know, but Laura's not getting rid of this... ;) 27k miles on it.

More pics tomorrow.

Intake, header, exhaust, 2 HP tuner credits, then injectors + pulley coming to an Ion near you!

Nah. Going to play with the m62 a bit with a 3.0" pulley. Will probably end up with a 3.6" pulley + turbo, for a sweet little compounded supercharger setup.

And yes, FWD SUCKS BALLS.

Unfortunately, nobody makes a decent 2+2 rwd 4 banger stick shift :(

This spins pretty good through 1st, but 2nd+ is fine.

Did yours have the LSD? Torque steer (try changing lanes when under full boost) sucks tho
