If you go to a tyre place, they can quickly test the stud pattern.

As for shocks, take some measurements and then have a look around at a pick-a-part. We did this for a mates car. You could also try a suspension place, as they can take better measurements and find something more suitable.

Seats, retrim or get generic buckets and make rails.

The seat rails we made were non adjustable. Pretty much thick steel bent and drilled in the right places to bolt the chair down to his preference. The only problem was, only he could drive the car as the seat was exactly where he wanted it.

I suppose you could try modding your standard seat rails to allow the aftermarket seat to bolt up or make some sort of adapter, we were just in a rush and didn't want to go with that option.

sounds good i looked at my seat rails and they only use one bolt on each side to bolt into the seat itself.... so i doubt itll be too hard when i get roudn to doing it... il post the results/failure:P
