Beat Seat Project Complete.
Heres some backround on my hatch i found a 95 KA that i was going to rebuild. Couldnt find a truck to borrow soo.... um...
I tipped it on its side to drive home (~5-6min) and thats where the oil problem started. (It actually fit tipped sideways. and actually closed my hatch)
But They didnt tell me that all the oil was out. so while taking it out oil everywhere. so this time i actually had to take EVERYTHING from the back seat- tail lights out. Spent 9 hours cleaning the car. Now, heres a another kicker, I relocated my battery to the rear, lasted a good month, i was at a local auto-X and then i heard it. BOOOOOM then acid everywhere litterally. I had to rip out my back seat/ carpet ...mostly everything from the back seat to the tail lights. Now after all this i put the back seat in, (road trip) Heres the day i ripped everything out:
(battery box is bolted down, and the only rust on the car is from the other battery around the spare tire thing inthe center of the hole. )
Now heres the pics of the project: Heres after 3 months of acid sitting on it, (siiting in my garage)
After the first 2 hours of hand sanding
Heres after all is hand sanded (back and front)
3 coats of pur 15 (forgot what its called. Deluts the acid)
Then 3 coats of flat black
Next: Since the orig seat was covered in oil and acid, took the back seat out of my parts car, and took the fabic off. And Cleaned it (this pic was B4 i cleaned it)
I RECOMMEND THIS TO EVERYONE....I love this product CLEANS EVERYTHING
thats it for now....

Nice car man, I'm jealous. You had some bad luck with the back seat/trunk...
So why RB25? I mean other than the obviously high power and great sound, that sucker's gonna be a headache at first..

Why rb? First its not as hard as out think of a swap, plus my friend steve has had his in his car for about 2 years,(silvia front...etc.. still a build in progress)
I LOVE the sound of a catless RB.... and well its just something different.
I would love to say, "ya, its just an sr" *pops hood* ^^ not so much that, just to be different, some what"
Here in albany: 90 hatch SR 91 coupe RB25 92 coupe RB20 (not running, cars a mess) 91 coupe was Ka-t, now stock S14 SR swap 90 hatch Ka-t and me
Thats pretty much it, unless i go up north, omfg sick cars up there S14 w/s15 front - Built SR pushing 470whp s13 w/S15 front - Built KA-T ~ 400+ S13 /180tails/s14 front built SR
theres more but, im not going to sit here and list cars in a project thread

That's cool man. I'd love to say I had an RB. But for the broke ass people like me, CA or SR is the only option for a reliable cheap swap.. Keep us posted..
