Nice, I have about 5" on you so looking for someone near 6'3-4" to test.
Vivid/Status said the seats are equal to stock but can be made to go lower with the right rails but they cannot confirm this 100%. Bride Stradi would be the perfect seat but I am not a skinny guy so need the more average american style fitment.

Just a quick question for everyone with seats. How many guys with full buckets run stock seat belts?

I ask because I'd like to get some seats, however, don't have the funds to do EVERYTHING at once; cage, harness, etc. I plan to accumulate those things one at a time but question the road safety of the stock belt once the seat is changed out.

I run seat belts on both mine until my new cages are built.

I am 6'2" and the stradia was the perfect lows!!! gave me a few more inches of headroom and kept my leg room.

Recaro CS sportsters are a tough one and they may be equal height to stock.

Yeah, I have driven a Z with Stradia but since then I have gone up a belt size and it was already a 'snug' fit I don't think they will work for me.
I need something more 36ish, I was 33 inch when I tested them last time.

When I sat in them I was 33-34 and had nothing in my jeans and was wearing a t-shirt and it was a very snug fit.
No way my waist could get in now.

I have my seats on the third hole from bottom in front and 2nd hole from bottom in back. I wanted to give it a slight decline. They feel lower than my stock. The shoulders are a bit narrow for me though.

edit: I'll be at Zdayz in May, if anyone wants to try them out.

hey guys, I need the help of those with bride stradia or gias seats. What cushion did you guys choose? standard or low? how much did it drop (or raise) the seating position. What brackets did you get and also appox how tall you are as well. I'm 5'11" and in the Z seat i only have a fist above head in clearance (i sit pretty upright) My seat is bottomed out all the way with the stock seat.
Thanks guys!

Hey there,

I'm 5'10 and have room for a helmet with the "regular" cushion on the Stradia seat. You gain about 2" headroom even with the NON-low-max version. More padding for the arse too.

time to bump this thread up.

i know how everyone say the trade off of having after market seats is that you lose the airbag, and if you try to do the 2015 nismo seats or the nismo juke seats with air bag, it'll cost way too much.

However...on the recaro website it states that it makes seats WITH universal side airbags?? won't this solve the problem? im sure there will be an extra cost but certainly cheaper than getting the 2015 nismo seats?
