Sparco Torinos

Has anyone installed these seats in an FC yet? I keep seeing this full page ad in the mags of a black and grey Torino seat and really like them but don't know anything about their fit (whether they sit too high, etc.)

My Corbeau's sit so much higher than the stock seats.....about 4 inches. I'm short so i like the view but now my legs are too close to the steering wheel. How can i drop the seat?

Hi I was wonderin how did you custom fabricate those brackets for your sparcos? Or did you order them? I am in the middle of gettin a set of Sparco seats but Can't find any brackets for them.
As well nice Cage you got in there. Would that be a custom job?

You'll need to modify the brakets so they aren't so high.
Im accually in a much worse situation... I'll be bolting my seats to the floor so my head and helmet clear the roof and my roll bar...

are bride seats a japanese thing? I really never see pictures of them except in japanese cars (actually in japan, not just made)
And they usually have like mismatched color striping.

Hey SOUL ASSASSIN, I see your in Misawa. I just was just there, nice place but nasty weather. Snowed everyday I was there. But while I was there I finally scored a RX-7 mag., and a couple of option videos right off base. I never pass up a trip to Japan(especially Yokota), I always see sweet cars and have a good time.
