i'm only a 36 waist & i can't fit in a Bride seat (1 butt cheek only fit ). Instead i'm looking at the Recaro SPG...

get the most expensive seat you can afford that keeps you from sliding in a turn. large side bolsters, lower back, & good thigh support are the key secrets!!

My Tenzo rally seats are perfect for that, they keep you planted. I got mine off of ebay for about 400 shipped, give or take a few bucks. And if you ever get in an accident with our cars anyways, I highly doubt the seats would be a determining factor in a death.

i don't know where you guys are getting these brides seats from, but in LA, they were going for $599 a pair for the non reclinable and like $899 max for the top of the line ones..

Bride Brix II all the way. like heaven on your @ss. lol ^ i think all of the REAL Bride seats i have seen go for about $750-1000 a seat for the reclinable. non reclinable are cheaper but trust me u don't want to have those on your daily driver. hard to get out of and not very comfortable. i've sat in a few of the name brand ones personally

The pep boys around me just got in some reclineable APC seats, LOL, they are about as comfortable as a hernia. I sat in one and i felt like i was sitting on a concrete block, i mean my tenzos arent the most comfortable thing in the world, but my God these APC seats were terrible. Just thought I would throw that in.

thought i would bring this thread back up fro no good reason. would like to ask if anyone has sat in/has the Bomz racing seats $349.00 a pair free ship. These are the ones i'm looking at seings hows i got a red RA. of course comfort is the big issue because the stock seats in the car hurt my back.

just a quick question for you - is there any reason why you would not swap out for the EVO 8's or 9's as it would be a straight swap over and also you would not have to worry about the extra cost of seat belts and restraints or is it only the Aussie cars that have them attached to the seats

well I can tell you that the Evo 8 & 9 Recaro seats are very comfortable on long trips and offer great support for the spirited driving style plus they look great
