    racing seat questions

    Im tossing up the idea of new racing seats in my blue EP. I know there is Sparco, Recaro, and some others. I want some opinions on seats.. I know tenzo R makes seats which look nice, but I have never sat in them. What are some good brands that people have had experience with besides sparco and recaro.

    If you want racing seats try Bride, I think they weigh around 5 lbs a seat.

    get the Tenzo R's Recaro lool alike ones! they have very good qaulity fabrics...i have a friend who runs a pair of blue ones in his teggy...

    they look EXACTLY like recaros except for the "Tenzo R" logo on them


    or get a cheaper pair of Sparco, or Corbeu seats....

    just look up "racing seats" on ebay, they usually come in pairs and are really cheap due to liquidation sales....;)

    after sitting in a couple different models of Corbeau seats, it is my impression that the recaro srds that i have are not only better made but much more comfortable.

    The SRDs can be had for about 1100 (2 seats, rails, and sliders)

    note: I'm about 5'11" 31" waist super comfy for me

    I am looking into getting a set of the Tenzo Rally seats but like you I was kinda wondering how comfortable they really are. I found a couple auctions on ebay where you can get them with "universal sliders" for like $500 shipped.
