    there are no negatives, only positives

    well it takes longer to warm the cabin up in the winter, and is slightly noisier - but you feel more at one with the car as you can hear every little sound

    hearing every signe noise drives me insane as i am constanly worried my car is going to fall appart. But i must agree, it just feels a better drive slag, and i have only stripped the rear seats and belts etc out atm

    Stripping the car is one of those things you have to do poperly or not at all..

    If you strip it you should put buckets in, harnesses, different steering wheel etc etc so it all looks proper..

    Then sus and shit should be sorted imo as your going for the track look so you should have the performance to match aswell tbh..

    Also its loud and stuff and generally wank imo..i had a stripped track prepped car for almost 2 years on the road and hated every minute of it unless i was on a track day..lol

    i think that if its not used on track you look like a wanker

    i think they look awesome if they are just used as a toy/track car but if your using it every day you just look like a nob

    has to be done fully as well like james says, but i dont see you need to change steering wheel
