I have a pair of Sparco Torino's in my FD.

KAOFD780 11-30-08 02:12 PM

since we're talking about seats does any body know where I can get seat rails that are longer so I can move my seat back more? I have a JDM (RHD) version of the FD and supposedly the seat rails on the J-Spec cars don't go back as far as the USDM ones, since the steering wheel is on opposite side can I just use a USDM passenger (right side) rail to work? Being 6'3 with long legs in a FD is a pain haha but I love my car to death.

Seats are TIGHT. YOu fit snug as hell lol.

Not recommended if you're wider than a 36 inch waist or over 185lbs.

Yes, you will need to purchase a set of their rails for the FD.

I bought the "super low" rails. It only allows the seat to sit about 1 inch lower than stock. But it still feels great.

Rails are like OEM fit,

What are the exact seat brackets that you speak of?

I am a 5"10 big boned sob with 38 of waste. Unfortunently, i bought Torinos 2 that i saw in some members car but even with stock rail modification, if I don't want them to rub on the doghouse, or the door panel, I would have to saw off one side of the inclining shaft. which I wont do on a brand new seat sorry. I will most likely sell them soon.

What would you guys suggest, i know the GIAS look spectacular but I dont feel like going with 1500$ a pop seats. Even non-ajustable will do for me as long as they are confortable (confortable as in not too tight) and that I have enough room for helmet.

He's talking about the MemoryFab seat rails & brackets (since he's using their seat):

After reading Dhalen's post about Fat ass bastards who need a seat big enough for their butts thread. I think the best option would be the Corbeau Forza with Corbeau's seat rails.

I'll post some pics when I get them.

Insomniac21772 07-07-09 10:09 AM

+1 on Recaro SPG's w/ bride rails fitting with a slight shoulder rub on doors. Really doesnt bother anything. Door still closes fine, seats are amazing.

Here they are installed on my car...

paximus 07-07-09 10:17 AM

Anyone try the Sparco Chrono Roads yet?
I'm guessing they're similar in size to the Milano's.

Like mahjik said, i purchased the mem fab "super low" seat rails with the seats.

If you have a 38" waist, these are not the seats for you lol. No offense but i am a small built guy (about 162lbs) and i THINK its tight. I sorta broken in the driver side a bit but first couple of uses and its a bit hard to get used to. Getting in and out is a bit tough because you cant rely on the bottom sides to maneuver yourself out because the entire seat is made of carbon fiber, so the actual sides are hard. What i do is i use my left hand on the door sill and push myself out while my right hand is on the 12 o clock position of the steering wheel pushing myself out as well. lol

Out of all these seats that fit, do any slide, recline, and sit lower than OE? I know it's a lot to ask. Looks like the Bride Gias might be the ticket pending seating height on sliders?

From my experience, get the memfab S68 which are like the seats i purchased and posted pics of but they recline. And you're literally sitting on the floor. (i cant stick my hand under the seat).

Supernaut 12-21-09 07:55 AM

The recaro with the original recaro rails slide and recline (tilt). They are AWESOME.

Doesn't look like the S68's recline. Also, did you have these on sliders?
