bucket seats

[Craig.H]

hi all,

im looking to buy some bucket seats for my 182, it will be used on track and weekends so im looking for something relatively comfortable!

what do people make of the sparco sprints and cobra monoco? they seem bottom of the range but i dont want to be spending a grand on seats for a track car (budget wont allow:dapprove these are steel frame as well, is that something to consider?

any opinions on what to go for and the best place to buy as prices seem to vary alot!

I wouldn't look at brand new then if the budget isn't your strong point!

I picked up some Sparco Rev's for £350 which is pretty much the going price. They weren't too bad but not for me, weren't the deepest seat in the world and were too short vertically for me being ectomorphic.

where do you find them?? ebay aint got anything and nothing ever comes up in here.

Comfort - Imola GT

Looks/comfort - Bimarco futra

They do crop up on eBay and here dude, it's just waiting for them to come along!

can anyone recommend companies to go to about the bimarco's and imolas? thats what i would love but i need prices to see if i could warrant buying them!

I Run a Pair of Bimarco futra in my daily driver, did 600 miles in them over a weekend a few weeks back and they were comfy.

Mine were originally supplied via JMS (Although I got them used from a forum member)

My momo's are for sale. They recline, but are incredibly supportive (several on here have driven it on track and will confirm). Low subframes, £350 for the lot.

recliners are a big no no for me, sorry bud but thanks

Bimarco futuras get my vote. Not that light though. Albeit much lighter than standard!

If going fixed, there's only one choice for me
