Hey stooges,

I need some new seats to replace my Evo 7 ones (So i can fit in the car when i have a helmet on ;) )

What do you recommend? I would prefer fixed back I think ..

but then I found these -

I also like the Sparco s-lights, and the Recaro R-gt (i think thats what theyre called)

The sparcos are nice Dan and as you are similar size to me- apart from being 3 feet taller:p the pro 2000's that I just bought would fit you well, they are also available with a carbon back but not too sure on the price for that model.
I paid $950 each for the standard models, and as for height adjustment I will ask Swellso if he has any pictures of the rail he had fabricated for his E4- as it could be raised/lowered as well as slid back and forwards.

A mate has just had a set of Sparco Cobra Evolution GTs fitted to his R32 GTR, reckons they are a little high , with helmet on it's just touching the roof. He wouldnt be taller than 5,11"

He hasn't got any travel in the seat, so it can sit lower too.

i would stay away from fixed backs for a straight street car,

if you are going to hit the track then fixedback is the go.

at least get a passenger seat that normal people can fit in, not a one skinny freaks like you and scotty

If you are going to spend that sort of $$, then have a good look at the Racetech ones from NZ. A mate has the 4009's in his rally car and they are very comfy and supportive and come in different widths. The covers are removable for washing too.
