me any my friend installed some in his 240sx and theyre kind of skinny....comfortable for a racing seat, they have a good amount of padding but if you lifted a ton of weights in your life like me and are very wide then they can be annoying.

I wouldn't bother with those.

I'm gonna roll on a set of F1Spec seats. Fixed buckets FTW!!

Hell yeah, I just picked up some corbeau clubmans, definitely comfy for me (6'2" 190 34-36 waist) and also ensures no fatties. I got them brand new from a local for $320- so I basically just got free shipping.

The assurance that my back is safe in these seats is definitely worth the extra dough.

P.S. I'm sitting in one thats on my couch right now.

For anyone wondering, i noticed alot of people said its easy to install these and is a breeze, but im my experince it was a PITA and took a long time. The drivers seat took about 4ish hours and passanger took 1.
