RX7 Seats

Hey, I am about to buy a 93 RX7 R1 with a brand new engine, turbos, and he is puting a vielside body kit on it for me. Carbon Fiber interior. But I am 6'2, 250lbs and the stock seats are too fat/thick/huge. What seats would you guys recommend that would be more comfortable? My knees hit the steering wheel. I figured maying finding a set of sparco seats or somthing. I am willing to listen to anything. Btw is 15 grand a good price for this car?

its that red that is on the rx7 in fast and the furious. This guy is puting that same body kit on this car also. Is this car worth 15 grand? He expect over 320 hp after he does the new engine and turbos. He tells me I can find a good exhaust and intake for it that will add alot more. What is best exhaust and intake for this car?

Also, how much extra room would say a MOMO racing seat and stearing wheel make? My knees touch stearing wheel quite hard now (assuming there isnt really anything important on the stearing wheel, and if so can you find a smaller version of the same wheel?) Please give me all info you can

Try this...



"Same as the Evo but this seat is 1”1/4 (3 cm) wider in its inner sizes. The Evo 2 is designed for larger drivers (over 200lbs). "

the evo2 doesn't fit in the FD unless you do some work to it. Check for the Sparco America, there are made for people of your size. I know a guy here that want to sell his.
