WI Raceshop Rollbar 6pt. Aftermarket seat choice?

In the quest to get my car running and on the road/track this year, I have a Raceshop Rollbar 6pt with swing out door bars and seat brace on both passenger and driver. I’d like to install the rollbar this spring and I need to buy a set of seats, my questions are - what are the seats of choice for this set up? What seat fits without interference? All the info on the board that I can find regarding seats and the RSRB doesn’t specify 6pt. fitment only 4pt. Anyone one running the 6pt setup? What seats areyou using? Recaro Profi SPG, Sparco EVO What seat rails?

How tall are you, and how far back do you need the seat to sit?

Not sure if this helps, but the Recaro SPA fit fine with the Raceshop 4 point installed. You do lose some seat travel towards the rear though.

Oh, and...... bartender, Jobu needs more rum!

Well I also just reread thread https://www.rx7club.com/interior-ext...-789715/page5/
And if you look at #10 and #12 on the list that will fit,
10. Recaro Profi and or SPG ( with slight rubbing to the door but not much, if you use Recaro rails instead of bride it will fit fine)
12. Sparco EVO with stock seat rail (shoulder bolster will rub on the door)

I’m 5’7 so losing a little rearward seat travel, I think, would be ok.
I wonder if there be any interference with the edge of the seat and the diagonal bar going forward.

OBTW jobu does need more rum… Good call
