[b]*******F1Spec Full Bucket Racing Seats************[b]

We currently have 3 styles

-----Type I-----

Type 1 - Mugen S1 Style. The cloth only come in the same color scheme as the Mugen S1. We have either the fiberglass, which is the same exact grey color as Mugen, or the silver carbon.

-----Type II-----
Type 2 - Spoon Style. I'd say it is more of a Mugen S1 style in plain color cloth. Cloth either come in Black or Red. The reason why I say it is more of a Mugen S1 rather than Spoon is because our Type 2 is not really a eggshell type. The Type II comes in FRP (Fiberglass) or BCF (Black Carbon fiber)

They look like nice seats! Do the sliders come with a place to mount the stock female seat belt connector?

sorry usually that would be connected to the seat bracket itself thats made for your car

pm-ed

GOTBANNED? 09-17-06 06:33 PM

I'm sure u will get alot of interest

afterburn27 09-17-06 06:44 PM

Could I get a PM also. Type III FRP, black. And shipping to 23113.

Also, do you know of anyone who has put these seats in an FD? As you might already know, space is limited in our cars.

I would go ahead and become a forum sponsor, you'll get plenty of interest.

f1spec,

You'll probably get more business if you can find some local RX-7 owners to test fit your seats. A few years ago, Corbeau went through the same process, created brackets for the RX-7s and have had very good success with the RX-7 crowd afterwards.

i only live an hour away ;)

Funkspectrum 09-20-06 03:33 AM

hey...I'm not too far away from you guys F1spec...

If you need an FC to test fit stuff, let me know and I can come out.....

Valkyrie 09-20-06 07:40 PM

I think the general consesus would be for the Type III seat...

Now, get us some of those without the embroidery on the cushion, FIA approval, and RX-7 (at least FD/FC...) specific seat bases (replacing the rusty old ones), with dual locking rails, for about 450 shipped, and you'd probably sell yourself a lot of seats (FRP, or carbon, if feasible)...

And no deal if the rails don't actually lower the eyeline... that sort of ruins the point of a fixed bucket seat.

Geez, would you like anything else for Christmas?

I dont understand this. Why does lowering the eyeline matter? You sit low enough in an FD as is, I dont see why you'd NEED to lower yourself... In theory, a lower seat will lower the center of gravity of the car, but not by anything you'll be able to notice. The point of a fixed bucket seat is 2 thins: First, they save a ton of weight. Second, they HOLD YOU in the seat, rather than you holding yourself in the seat. Try some hard cornering in the stock leather seats and you'll feel yourself using your arm and chest muscles to push against the steering wheel to keep you from sliding around in the seat. A fixed racing seat with bolsters holds you tight, so that your arms stay relaxed and you are better able to make adjustments at the wheel and drive hundreds of laps around a track without wearing yourself out.

Valkyrie 09-21-06 12:53 PM

It's mainly for people who have little headroom (or just want more), basically anyone over near or over 6' tall, especially with a sunroof or a helmet. You also gain a bit of legroom, in the case in which the steering wheel hits your thighs (which was true when I still had the stock steering wheel in my car).

It also helps you to see the gauges properly if you have an aftermarket steering wheel.

You also gain a bit of clearance from any roll cage in the car (especially important for a street car with a roll cage, since you don't want to smack your head on it, especially without a helmet on).

And I realize the primary pupose is for increased hold (decreased weight is really a secondary concern, albiet a valid one).

The side mounts of most fixed buckets are adjustable anyway, but if the base isn't designed well enough to let you lower the seat (versus the stock position) in the lowest position, you lose one of the advantages of a fixed bucket.

I don't even own an FD, though... (I've only sat in one... a 2000 or so model in Japan. It could have used more legroom...).

BTW, I do realize my suggestion was a bit out there... I was simply stating what I thought were the optimal features for the price I thought most people would be willing to pay for a generic bucket seat, with rails. So basically, I was low-balling them :p No harm in that...

You must be short. :)

cabaynes 09-21-06 01:46 PM

Valkyrie, I see what you're saying. I'm a short guy like afterburn27 guessed :) so head/legroom isn't really a problem for me. The FD fits like a glove!

Valkyrie 09-21-06 02:44 PM

Hahaha, I guessed as much. I just didn't want to make any assumptions and end up looking like an ass if I was wrong :D

*RX007* 09-21-06 05:10 PM

im 6'2" an i wouldnt mind being a little lower on the car, i aso notice that when im making a right turn i try to look alittle futher in front of me but the rear view mirror is in the way, lowering the seat would help w/ that too.
