My own B15/SE is rock-steady at the mid-point (like -1 or -2* from perfectly
level) when it's adequately warmed for full running.  First run of the day,
this takes several minutes (3, maybe?) and miles to reach.  Subsequent runs
or on warm days, this takes little time.  I've always thought that you
really shouldn't be too hard, even on your transmission, before this point
in the day...

Consequently, Mr. Jez, I've only seen one SE-R with leather, and that was
done by a custom shop, not even a dealer.  Leather seats are for luxury
cars; we B15s get leather shifter knobs and steering wheels, but that's it.
