02 wrx "parts car"
 

We got a blue 02 in on trade last week, and my sales manager wants to wholesale it. Thing is, it's got some "wholesale issues"...

First, there's a set of light grey, leather racing seats in it, that he wants to get rid of. They have a bit of normal wear, but aren't too bad condition wise. He would rather have stock seats in it tho. If anybody is interested, he said that he'd be willing to make a straight trade for them. They'll bolt into the stock location with no modifications as well...

Thing is, there's no receiver for the seatbelt on them, so that's a bit of a quandry...

There's also a set of "Schroth style" harnesses in there, that he more or less told me to get rid of. They aren't properly mounted, but they'd be decent harnesses for auto-x if they were. They're blue, and have "subaru impreza wrx" stitched on them. No webbing tears or any other issues that I saw, but I'll take a closer look when I remove them of course.

I don't know if anybody will be interested in the seats, but maybe the harnesses. Just thought I'd mention it, and see if anybody gives a crap!

Lemme know!

Are you going to put an RS drivetrain in there before you get rid of it? :devil:

Would those harnesses fit in my 05 STi? If so, how much?

I don't suppose I could buy the headlights could I?

I don't think I want the drivetrain out of this... It's pretty beat the f*ck up. Thing runs like ass...

The harness would be free to whoever wants it, essentially. I'm just gonna yank it out. You can pretty much bolt it in to *any* car, as long as it's mounted correctly! Oh, in case I wasn't clear, when I say "harnesses", I mean only one. Driver only. It's yours if you want it dude!

I don't think the boss man wants to yank out the headlights. Pretty much, he wants rid of the parts that will make it difficult to wholesale the car...

Okay, thanks anyway dude.

I thought you just got the black inside headlights from Khail anyway, Cody!

Fire up that fancy phone of yours, and take some pictures of the seats...

That's what the FrankenSubby needs... Leather racing seats...

Yah, don't tell him that the passenger side one got busted up when I crashed my car last week... :(

WTF?

What'd you go and do that for!!!??





Yeah, I'd send pics from my phone, but I never got the web enabled crap so I can send phone pics to my computer. Loser [points to self]

The Friday night before the AutoX, I was driving in the Kingsbury Grade area for the first time and crashed into a rock off the side of the road. Luckily nobody was inujured...just my ego.

Several factors contributed including crappy road surface, me not wearing my glasses, very off camber turn that I didn't see correctly...

Don't forget the sun in your eyes, and the road took a bad hop. And IBN2jokes. :lol:

Nah, it was night time and the road was smooth Fucker.

And RE92's...

And nitrogen in the tyres, turbo spooling at 12 mph, RE-92s.

I'm glad no one was hurt

Dammit, someone came into my cube while I was trying to post :lol:

I concur, but I'm pissed that the opportunity to remove one bugeye from the world was squandered. :p He could have at least smashed the whole front end up pretty good, and just had the body shop order '04-'05 parts instead... :D

I'll try harder next time.

Don't feel bad. At least nobody has pictures of your car getting pulled out of a snowbank by a Jeep Cherokee. :p

Snow would at least be a good excuse...

Since NevadaSTI was the first to chime in, and I've got the harness out and it's in good shape, it's yours if you want it dude!


The seats actually have some pretty stout frames on them too! From "Wedge Engineering" Nice, heavy steel, and built specific to fit the Impreza.

If you end up replacing the seats w/o trading away the old ones, I'll want dibs on one to build a GT4 seat with. ;)

If we take out the racing seats, there'll have to be a trade. It's not worth it for him to buy new ones for a wholesale car, but the car would fetch more on the wholesale market with the stock seats...


You mean you don't just sit on the couch to play games like the rest of us?

Sucks dude, after all of my hard labor to install those for you too! :lol: I'll never get back that 15 minutes. If you need to borrow some stockers let me know, I've still got the ones you traded me. And I know I had another spare set that one side was messed up, but I can't remember which side. I'll try and dig them out tonight when I get home. If the good one is the right side you could have it.

I'll take it.

Thanks Khail! Please do let me know if you have a good passenger side one. Actually I have two good RP02's (2 got mangled) that I'm probably going to need to unload if you want a full size spare...

Lemme know the next time you're gonna be up here in town, and I'll hook you up dude!

I am gonna try to make it up there prior to the next AutoX. Or I can stop by your work in Reno this coming Monday as I take my son back to the ex-wife in Chico.

Either way dude! If you come by here, they'll be here, otherwise I'll make sure to remember to bring them to that meet!

I wish mine could spool like that ;)
