i tend to chauffeur all my tall friends around cuz those deadbeats don't have cars, and they hate cramming in the back.

I'm about 6"1', but i haven't really had a time getting in. as far as the shifter, i got a little lucky, because when i did my tranny swap, i kinda screwed up on the linkages and they're now further back too.

I hear ya! I think that I am going to move my seat bracket around also.

I don't know how you tall people with stock shifter locations can even drive this car normally! I highly recommend moving the shifter back about 3 inches, then you can lean back against the seat while you drive. And believe me, I have long gorilla arms too.

when you recline your car seat so far back you can hardly see, just to get your proper "lean" on. :lol: :lol: :lol:




if you have a MX-3 older than 94, you might also consider getting the 94+ seats, as they sit on the floor.
they're bucket-licious.

lol its a good think im kind of short. when i removed the backseat of my GS and put the sub box back there i had to shift the amps in the back floor board and made it to where you cant slide the seat all the way back, and with that most of my freinds physicaly cant drive this car lol

i'm 6'1,the seat is all the way back, and i have a cutted short throw.i dont have any problems for the arm lenght,but the seat is angled a lot, wich isint too comfortable after 2-3houres rides.

i like the first gen gs seats(round one) best
