Mine are Corbeau forza's - very supportive and very comfy for me (5"10, 36inch waist). They are a more affordable option than recaro or sparco and they are well made and FIA approved as too. My only complaint, the brackets!! The Corbeau brackets are NOT true bolt in affairs as there was a bit of bending and grinding required. Thankfully, all hardware was included and they supplied quality stuff (usually aftermarket hardware is garbage). However, every sparco seat I've ever seen put in fit exactly

 

do you know where I can get Sparco brackets?
I want to get Sparco Sprints.
thanks

 

What do you guys have to say about ebay mazdaspeed seats?

 

You're welcome.

To whoever asked, the color is 1A, which I think is called champagne or something like that.

where did you bolt the harness' down to? is it safe to run a harness that way??

 

Here Is a shot of my Sparco Sprints. Sorry, I don't have a pic better than that.

 

How did you install them?

 

You should have just bought mine. I had two black ones I was trying to get rid of back then.

I want the Type-F seats now.

 

i will post pics then, i have nice seats in, but im changing the color, so im selling them, they work great, the Rx should have racing seats in it factory

 

heres mine

 

I would also like to know this because I was thinking of buying that tower brace from you, but If the one you have can support harnesses for when i get racing seats I want one of those

 

Thats not a safe way to mount the harness. He'll need a proper harness bar bolted in.

 

I ran them under the carpet and they extend nearly to the back of the hatch and mount in 2 seperate (but symetrical, right next to each other) bolt holes that are unused from the factory. They are nice and deep and much stronger than anything I'd drill into the car. I believe they are 12mm bolts...I also used some nice thick washers in between the mount for each shoulder strap (2 for each harness, 1 per shoulder). They keep things neat and prevent the mounts from buckling.

A harness bar or roll cage is the correct way to mount these harnesses but I do NOT use them on the street and I've never taken this car out on a track day (we've got an SCCA road race car for that, yea!). I got the drivers side harness to keep me in place @ the autocross and I got the passenger one to match hehe. Again, I do NOT use the harnesses on the street - they work well along with the seats to keeo me in place while autocrossing though.

 

Open call for anyone who has done a "sport seat" retrofit. I just pulled the whole interior of my 91 Turbo apart and pulled the seats out. I have the leather turboII seats and they are in great condition. I am just not a fan of leather especially the hard stuff they put in 80's and early 90's cars.

Rather than having them redone for 400$+ per seat I thought I might sell them and get a pair of these....

(no I won't be paying 814$ for them)

I was looking at and taking some measurements from the stock seats last night and noticed that the inside rail for the passenger seat seems to be at a pretty noticable angle due to the tunnel.

For thoes who have mounted aftermarket seats, how did the install go?
What problems did you run into?
What would you do differently?
What are the main hangups and solutions?

 

this is a seat..

 

Look closely on the right side of pic....."Courtesy Acura ......"

 

I used the stock Seat Rails and an adapter plate on each side of the Seat. It was very cost effective and It turned out better than I anticpated.

 

adapter plate?

 

Yeah, It was essentially a plate (length of the seat from front to back) with a series of holes that allows the bolt on of the stock seat rail on one side and the actual seat on the other. These plates were mounted toward the median of the car. ie. both on the e-brake side. As for the stock rail to the seats, I drilled holes through them to accept the bolts. Very easy.

 

excellent view of my wonderful Corbeau Forza seat, lol.
its for sale

 

did the forza seat fit that well? You need to cut or do anything besides buy the seat and brackets and insall? No problems? Im thinking of getting one.

 

i want racing seats but i will lose my head rest speakers if i do
