I believe there are are some seat rails that will lower you down a bit, i can't think of the name so hopefully someone chimes in who is more helpful. :redface:

I actually pulled out the stock seats and looked at them once. It doesn't look like they can go much lower because of the springs under the seat. The rails that he mentions are for the type-r recaros. I was told that the recaros sit a few inches lower than stock, which would be really nice, but they're $$$.

As far as I know there is none for the stock seats. I wish there was since I started to autocross and with my helmet I am hitting the roof since I am 6'2".

I have been wondering about trying a seat setup that I can swap in and out when I race but would work with the SRS system.

The recaro's are really not an option for my big ass the stock ep3 seats are snug and from the looks of the other's i would not fit!!:msmile:

You can buy some Vision low position seat rails and just mount them to your seats.

JHPUSA use to carry it, but you might have to call them to make sure.

might be alittle difficult considering there is a hump on the floor at the front of the seat.

It doesn't look like that set of rails fits our cars

These from Buddy Club (http://www.jhpusa.com/store/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=67&idproduct=1033) look like they work for the EP.

Has anyone tried any of these brackets with the stock seats. I would really like to lower mine, also.
