    i'd suggest getting the car first before you decide what you need rather than like?
    750kg car, 86mph max....brakes are adequate, unless yours are completely shot?, tyres are the limiting factor usually and whether you're running with the spare wheel or not makes a difference. small space saver it may be but that little bit of weight helps when it's in there.
    i've done a few track days, sprints, not had an issue, even the mountains of Northern Spain down the hairpin roads with discs like these......

    the Beat, like a lot of early 90's Kei cars were short production runs, although saying that the Beat ran for 5 yrs or so, and 99% of parts are car specific

    seats....'fabbing them shouldn't be too difficult......drivers seat is wider than passenger......a 'normal' sized seat is a tight fit
