New seats!

Woo! Just picked these up today, Sparco Evos in mint condition, with universal sliders, and side mounts, as well as brand new 6 point harnesses! I'm doin some searching right now, but I'd assume that I could drill some new holes in the stock mounts and bolt em up to those?

NICE *** SEATS! wish I could put some in my car- too too too soon for me!

See people- I'll wait till I get a semi beastly car to put some bad *** seats in...to me, now only to me, when people have some some sparco evos in the 7- they better not have traction all the way thru 3rd lol or else it looks all backwards...they spend the money on seats instead of dumpin into the motor or something

p.s. aint throwing salt on your game, once again- those are some bad *** seats

"Range Motorsports" harnesses

I dunno why you need that much power to put seats and harnesses in? I have an n/a FC, theres no point in "dumping it into the motor or something". The seats and harnesses are to hold me in place on the track!

i had a n/a. now 87 TII. i personally think the n/a's take corners faster. Turbos get silly around corners unless your trying to drive it like a race car. I would take on/off ramps flying around the loop at 60-80 all day. The turbo would be drifting! which is the funnesthttps://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=738295

Nice seats, by the looks of the passenger stocker, I would say you could get $400 for both of them?

I wouldn't consider seats with wear on them like these Mint:


But they do look to be in good condition aside from that. Nice find.

One of the seats was in mint condition, that would be the one not in the car right now. The other one cost $150 more.

They look good, but I still think FD seats are the best option.
