Seats question!

G35guy84 · 07-24-2010, 08:54 PM

I'm looking into buying some racing seats from this site:

Racing Seats :: HyperAutoParts - Racing seats and Body kits Superstore

Has anybody heard of them? I'm not really looking to spend $1500 for a set of seats, and I don't need top-of-the-line or carbon fiber either.

I havent heard that company's name BUT, when i bought my body kit for my old versa, the guy who i went though tried to pawn off a set of seats like these on me. I have to say i was NOT impressed with the quality of them at all.

Status makes some cheaper racing style seats that are for looks you can check out. i think 550 or so per but dont quote me. There are a few others like them out there you can take a look at but i firmly believe you get what you pay for with seats.

Ill post some other links after work for some other stuff ive run across in my time shopping for seats.

i bought a pair of corbeau's , seat brackets and 4 points for like 900$ delivered.

Corbeau: Forza

Aye Corbeaus are at a good price. I like their FX1 Pro a little more than the Forzas but i havent seen anything saying that they are FIA cert. You would think they would boast that on their site but i dunno.

I have the Corbeau CR-1 installed and so far I'm impressed with the comfort and quality for the price.

I like the Forza seats, too, but I'm hesitant to buy them because they don't recline. How is the ride comfort?
