Racing Seats and Polyurethane Body Kit Questions

[EvolvingGST]

Hey guys I was looking at a set of Ralli Art racing seats. so I have a couple of questions about that...

1. Will they fit in my car? (1995 GST)
2. Do our cars use the universal seat rails?
3. Or if not how can i get them in?

Body kits.. well my car is pretty messed up so I decided I need a new kit.... Since sometimes my car does bottom out because of various things that are random like unseen potholes in the pitch darkness of midnight I decided I wanted a kit that was stronger not like fiber glass... so I thought Poly Eurathane was the way to go...

1. Do poly eurathane kits cost a lot?
2. How much do they cost?
3. Should I get 97 OEM bumper (have lights)... and get sideskirts?
4. Do the 1997 sideskirts differ from the 1995-96?
5. Do these sideskirts have the wrap around bottom because i find them a biatch when jacking up my car... or have any tips to do it without messing with them?

I like the look of a stock 97+ eclipse better than one with a body kit. Yes the 97+ side skirts are different from the 95-96. I am pretty sure all side skirts wrap around undernieth. How do you jack up your car? All you need to do is jack it up from the front, right under the engine you will see a spot on the cross frame.

how different are the 97 from the 95 side skirts... ie will they not fit or something? whats the deal with them? and my car is too low to jack from the front so i jack it on the book jacking points on the sides.

You can put the 97+ side skirts on the older 2G's. But they both have completely different looks.

Ok so if i buy aftermarket sides for 97+ they will fit on flush to my 95?

and come on noone has racing seats? >.<
and btw should i get a rear done too? opinions? is it hard converting lights on bumper(reverse)?

Yeah the urethane kits are pricier then the fiberglass conterparts, but they last longer. With my kit I have a couple scratches on it but if it was fiberglass it would probably be cracked. Just need to get my paint toched up. The other problem with urethane is that you can only get selected kit's. Mostly the Blitz style kit.

If your wanting one I'm looking at selling mine. Just pm me and we can talk more.

If you put 97 side skirts on your 95 it will fit like it does on the 97+ eclipses, you wont notice a difference. Make sure you get the whole 6 piece set for the side skirts, that includes a door cap, front small piece and the main skirt, there are 3 pieces on each side.

Get the polly! IF you get a fiberglass kit your gonna have to baby your car. And from the sounds of it you dont know much about the dsm's.
All 97 and up skirts will fit on your 95 and the back will too. The only part that a problem is the fron end you'll need to convert your headlights to 97. Quit *itchin about the jack spots if you know what your doing you would jack the back up on the tow hook then slide the lift bars under the side jack spots. If youve got poly you'll be fine.

Errr just to be PC just because i know nothing about looks interior or exterior mods doesnt mean i know nothing about my dsm. I do mainly engine work on my dsm and mods... This whole look nice thing is new to me... but anyways... the side jacking points seems to mess up my side skirts... even when professional mechanics do it.... my oem sides are all warped now... i dont know was it because the mechanic fed up or do they do that normally by jacking up the sides. but thanks for the little tip about the back... but will the side jacking points mess up my sideskirts when i get them put on? future reference....

and also thank you for all those who have responded.
