Let's see pics of aftermarket seats in installed in FDs!
I searched and there isn't much in the way of aftermarket seats installed in FDs (Sparcos, Recaros, Corbeaus, Bride, etc).
Let's see what's out there, seeing them installed will also give a good idea of what will actually fit :) |
Just marking this thread so I can post later. I had just installed my memoryFab carbon fiber seats, and will take pics on Wednesday and post once my raceshop 4-pt bar is installed.
|
I have a Corbeau A4 and this brand is the only that makes a mounting bracket for the FD. But I had to move the seat over towards the tunnel about 1/2" on the bracket to clear the door if the seat back was folded all the way down. The seat belt attachment then rubbed the seat, so I had to modify it also.

Ive got Evo7 Recaros in mine... Had 2 fixed bucket recaros but didnt suit....
Il take a pic 2moro! |
IIRC, Bride now has rails for the FD.
Not my car, but pics of the Corbeau CR1's: https://www.rx7club.com/showpost.php...67&postcount=3 |

Il take a pic 2moro! I just recently spent 2 weeks in Ireland. Saw a yellow FD with 99 rear wing in cork, and also saw a red FD with mazdaspeed wheels in the limerick area. I don't suppose either of them were yours? |
Nice setups, y03s! How are the Corbeaus?

I don't want anyone to even ask how I got these in there. Tenzo R rally buckets.
sorry about the pics, that is my old ass caveman camera.:icon_tup: BTW, these are the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in, stock or aftermarket. they hug like a horny girl. :) http://carbonfiberinnovation.com/con...and=1145672669 http://carbonfiberinnovation.com/con...and=1145672760 http://carbonfiberinnovation.com/con...and=1145672894 |
These are my beater CR1's, keeps the wear off my leather seats. I've had them for over a year and love them. The socket wrench is there for reference to show you that there's about 1/3" clearance from hitting the door

Aside from those with rz/spirit r seats, how many were able to use their factory seatbelts (vs harnesses)?
|
If you look at my seats Rich I still have the ability to use the factory seatbelts, that's what I use most of the time since it kinda looks stupid to use the harness while driving on the streets, oh and you barely can move around with the harness...

I am looking at some Sparco Milanos, and wonder if there is any way to get the factory seatbelts to work with them. I found jayspec7s site which details the install of the torinos (milanos) into an FD, but he used harnesses. |

Not my car - Status Suzuka's but I dont know what kind of rails hes using.
|
What is the difference between the Recaro SPA and SPG?
|
Touge Monster:
Do you know whos car that is? I am looking at Status Suzuka's and I am wondering what rails to use. The seats work well if you are around the 200lbs mark. John |
I cant remember whos car it is but he did post those pix in the 3rd gen section a few months back. Try running a search on Status and he might come up.
