Racing seats
 
Trying to figure out how much space I'll gain installing racing seats in an FR-S to do away with steering wheel rub on my left knee while braking? Any input from experience would be great. Thanks!

Very low profile should give a bit more room all round.... 13kg each......

Can someone provide a website with US-Pricing and a "Buy Now" Option? You know, to get an idea.

Reclinable seats are for wankers. Jk but in all reality they are just as if not more bulky than the stock seats. Look into a fiberglass shell, recaro spg or pole position.

I'm thinking of upholstering my Sparco Evo to the stock look. I just have to get some seat rails. You should gain at least 3-4 inches of headroom with the seat and low seat rails.

Do you plan on using fashioning your original seats into house furniture? That's what i'm going to do.


..that was somewhat random..

If I won the lotto those would be in my FR-S in a heartbeat!

^ I have a Gia's. It's basically the same thing. It's no big deal, fiberglassbuckt is more comfortable and safer.
