Fitted the passenger bucket seat,the original seat weighs 18.2 kg and the bucket 6.5 plus 4.5 for the mount so saves 7,2kg per seat or 14.4kg for the pair,nowhere near as much as I thought (I think the Recaros are a bit heavier).ideally I'd like to get a matching red harnesses for the driver too at some point.
Also fitted an oil temp sensor in the sump,I bought an adapter so should the sensor go bad or break you can simply unscrew it and replace it,lots of thread lock on it to avoid coming loose and tightened as much as I dared.
It's useful to know from cold start when the oil is warm enough before giving it beans,also fitted a new sump gasket while I was there.
Highest temp I saw was about 110 degrees,hope it won't go much higher than that with track use,next oil pressure.
