Nice seat......high priced like all the Sparco products. Not sure if it actually helps fight fatigue like it says.......IMO most Sparco seats are worth the $$. Sit and feel one in person and see why I say so.

that's fast service... and you say it's only gonna take less than a week to get to gearbox's place.

btw, i sent u a pm for the recaro a coupe days ago, basically just wanna check how much for a Recaro SRD with sliders and brackets. let me know how it goes damn... still deciding... sigh.
i think if you do a gb on the Recaro ones, u might get a few orders, 'cause some ppl from the rsx forums wants them.. but depends on the price i guess.

yea, i want to the review, hahaha.
doesn't the seat just bolt on since it come with brackets and stuff?
btw, do we have to cut our stock seatbelt and srs wires and mount them on the racing seats? and where would the seatbelt clip attach to after taking it out from the stock seat?

I'm assuming everything is a direct swap from what I've heard. All the stock wires and srs/seatbelts function normally. The seat's are setup for a harness obviously, but you can use stock belts.

Fighter is 16.4 lbs

Roadster is 15.5 lbs

Fiberglass frames make these both very light, but not as light as the S-Light, which is a CF frame and only 8.7 lbs.

is it the photo or is the roadster more reclined than the fighter, the fighter seems to be a violent version of the speed. guess the roadster would be better for a dd, but the fighter looks comfy...

Fedex sucks at posting shipping updates. Still says not found. But I know it won't show info until the day it's being delivered. I can't wait for them to come in.

Their online support for tracking has fell off over the last year. They used to be outstanding.

oh, quick question for the Corbeau seats.
does the seat itself come with sliders... and you just need bracket to mount them?
or its seat, slider, and bracket?
'cause I don't see sliders in the Corbeau site, its only has mounting brackest.

just curious. thanks

Corbeau makes a bracket/slider system all assembled as 1 piece that you affix to the seat.

One thing I'm worried about is how to bring them home. If they don't fit in, I'm gonna have to install at fedex Then where to store the crappy stock seats...
