what sort of seat are you mounting? I've mounted my MX5 seats on their original runners on a custom subframe behind the cross member but they cantilever over the top of the cross member for the shorter members of the family to drive |

This is how I fitted my MX5 seats. Came forwards enough for the missus (5'4") and back enough for me (5' 10").

Will that doesnt look like a bad idea. Im going to be using kirkey seats i think. Not seen anything else i like and they are a reasonable price. The turbo build has finally started |

Don't remove it. You could make it lower to make mounting the seats easier, but it needs to be there. That depends entirely on how good the cage is. If it's a top spec cage, then I wouldnt be worried about the original crossbeam at all. If it's just a very basic cage, then safest to keep it. 9.85 @ 145mph

Didn't pick up on the rollcage bit. Without the cage, don't do it. Be ok with the right bracing in the cage, though. I used to talk to myself a lot until I realised I wasn't listening. |

Maybe if it's a full weld in mig cage. But a 6 point bolt in won't be much use in replacing it. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph
