Are you sure you want a racing seat? Racing seats do not recline and are usually FIA approved.
|
i don't think this guy knows what's going on today. 15 posts and 12 threads.

Or rather, an affordable racing seat is probably not going to be FIA approved, and whether or not it will hold up in a wreck is...questionable.
IMO my fixed back racing seat is more comfortable than the stock seat. I'd suggest you go with a legitimate brand when it comes to buying a seat (Sparco, Recaro, Bride, etc). Although I haven't had any problems with my F1 Spec Type 3...yet |
fia has nothing to do wither it will hold up in a street wreck,
if it does whats the diff between same seats but one with fia, and the other w/o?? fia or not, still says for OFF ROAD USE ONLY |
The difference is that one has been tested by the FIA, while the other one doesn't. And whether or not it meets the standards, or not.
Brands like F1 Spec don't crash tests their seats. Brands like SPARCO do. Saying it's for off road use only is purely because they're not DOT approved. |

Saying it's for off road use only is purely because they're not DOT approved. if I buy a RACING SEAT then I expect it to meet SOME racing REGULATIONS, which includes safety. Am I the only one who thinks this car will be a nice looking non running car soon? I know i'm being negative but all of this guy's threads scream to me. "noob, wanting to pimp out ze auto without asking/taking care of the important things." He went from I want to upgrade turbo, to I want a T03 turbo, to anyone have info on 3 rotors, to racing seats, to what new manifold, to how do I tune it, to how do I port the WG, to I'm getting an Rtek, to i wanna replace my intake. :wtf: :wallbash: |

Old bottom mount vs. new side mount . Also, bigger openings for harness install which means you probably don't have to slide the harness mount end through first.

But if you want a real seat, and not some cheap gay shit, OR the bottom of teh line Bride's that the Doriftos are tossing in their cars, get a Bride Gardis. $1500, super fuckin' secure, super fuckin' comfortable, and you will not see one in a ricer mobile I garuntee. I'll be getting one when its time to work on the interior. |
If I'm gonna blow 1500 on seats then I'd hit up FDNewbie and buy the CF Kevlar OEM FD RZ seats. THOSE are THE seats.
