    But buy whatever you want, just remember i tried to warn you if you ever actually need the seat to protect you.

        I am trying to find Recaros, the only reason I posted Bride was because I thought they were a cheaper option. Turns out the ones i found were fakes. Real ones cost almost the same aas Recaros. So I am going to hold out for now for real ones.

        My only problem is this car is my daily. I am just making is over board race prepped for SCCA and events at The Glen when I can afford 400 a weekend. So I was searching for a reclining seat to be more suited for travel and such. I know this sounds dumb etc.

        I did find a fixed back I am in love with...Status in black or Recaro Pole postion. I have sat in the latter and it is SO nice =)

        Said seat, it is not FIA approved...is that bad?

          buy regular sport seats, then when your trackday/autocross comes up switch out to your fixed back seats!

                  i got my recaros for 240 on craigslist, the ones joe has in the blue car.
                  two weeks of searching "recaro" on searchtempest got me the seats lol.


                  and they were damn comfy and supportive.

                  you can have comfort from a race seat. all these kids think its cool to have buckets in their cars or fixed back race seats that are out of cert.
                  its not, its gay, you do not own a race car.


                  OP- search search search, you will find a good deal on something.

                    WTF? Dude, plenty of people use their cars, such as I for track and auto-x. Figures a kid who doesn't know how to heel- toe wouldn't understand the reasoning.

                      I have been searching out the ass, they are already sold or posted 2-3years ago. Also what do you know about racing? I am a roll cage, fuel cell and engine kill switch away from being track prepped.

                      You have no idea what you are talking about, know how I know the rules? I am a safety and grid worker for Watkins Glen speedway. I WILL be racing so that is why it is important for me to have a FIA approved seat :loco:

                      @thread viewers, I have scored a MOMO fixed back FIA approved seat for track events. For daily driving I am getting a pair of brand new Recaro Speed seats. Ordering them next month:

                        Good Score on the momo, completely forgot about them. If you want any sort of Recaros lmk, i have a dealer account for them and also a huge stock of used seats.
