racing seats
 

k so im looking for racing seats and before i make the purchase i just wanted to ask/know what u guys think

im going with the CORBEAU brand cuz is a cheap entry level racing seat

so pretty much my 2 options are the FX1 PRO, and the FORZA


FX1 PRO (my favorite)

The FX1 Pro racing seat features composite fiberglass technology. The FX1 Pro combines comfort, performance, and safety at an absolutely unbeatable price. Designed with an emphasis on comfort, this seat is one of the most comfortable race seats you will ever sit in. If you enjoy racing and want a practical and affordable shell seat, the FX1 Pro is a hard one to pass on. As a rule of thumb, the FX1 Pro racing seat will fit up to a 36 inch waist, High wear patches are strategically placed to protect your seat from abuse in the high wear areas. The FX1 Pro racing seat is available in cloth fabric with leatherette high wear patches or black microsuede with leather high wear patches.

last picture is the FORZA seat

so let me know what u guys think

pics aren't working

sorry about that, fix now

I had a Forza in my old Hyundai race car, and daily drove in it. It wasn't the most comfortable seat in the world and the fabric wore fairly quickly (related to how I had to get into the car). It was easy enough to recover.

yeah people say that the FX1 has better material, im pretty sure im going with the FX1 PRO

Good choice on going with aftermarket seats. Weight reduction at it's finest.

Sunroof? Very heavy and can be filled with a 2 pound carbon

yeah i know but im gonna do that later on, can u show me some pics of urs and how is attatched on the bottom, and if u have any trouble like leaks or something like that

Have the fx1 pro. Love them. I suggest side mounts over sliders as the side mounts make the seat much stiffer, less side to side flex
