    SLC Superlite: All In Cost Spreadsheet

    This is always a bad idea. Things never go as planned, costs always run higher than expected. If you want to run these numbers you need to fluff the heck out of it and get your estimate to $200k. When it comes in at $150k she will be happy.

    Seat options

    Budget? Adjustability? Harness needs? Comfort? Tillett is usually the high end go to. Momo and Sparco also good options. I am putting Sparco R100 into my next project. More comfortable than the Momo Start in my Superlite GT-R

    Ken's SLC build thread

    Unrelated to this, but there is a company NMSTEC that was making steering rack controller boxes for late model cars. I have a tesla rack and am awaiting a custom box to make the electric power steering work. Even if it is static assist I'd be happy. The underground support for CANBUS exists...
