Well I have had the intercooler and VNT on for 6 weeks now, I still haven't got around to sorting the fueling 100%, and need to try the modded fuel pin.

That aside I used the Ranger with the crane trailer one morning this week, I always thought the ranger towed it well once it was rolling, but it has made me realise just how much difference the mods have made to the power the defender now has, the increase in torque has made towing much easier.

I really need to get some decent seats now though as I spend so much time driving it some comfort would be nice, and my other gripe is the noise, I may put it into the local trimmers to see if they can quieten it down.

Does anyone know what other seats can be used ?

I would really like to get something more comfortable and quite, but just can't find anything suitable.(except a land cruiser)

Older Honda civic seats fit quite well, type r or s type, depending on how sporty you want them. But I have gone back to standard as it was too iritatating not having access to the tool box and battery and when you work on the transmission through the panel in the middle the seats get ruined.

I think Citroen BX seats fit pretty well too. Pretty sure you can modifiy them to make the squab removable to get at the underseat boxes too. A lot of 'normal' car seats are too tall, so you end up clouting your knees on the steering wheel and your head on the roof lining.

Isn't that why you put the speakers at the back in the roof directed at your ears :)
