I've got Monza (autotechnica) adjustable backs, harness holes. Black with blue inserts.
They're really comfy for me. I know larger people don't find them too comfy cause they are a fairly snug fit. I drive on windy roads so they hold me in really well.

OBX Carrera seats are going in the XX, fit me like a glove. The RA60 at the moment has Mk2 Supra seats, very comfortable.

I looked at the Monza seats, and sat in a dfew when I was looking around, they all had bolstering in the total opposite places to where I needed support!

I have SAAS mach 1's in my Corona too! They are legal for street use aren't they? I got mine second hand but not used for $400 for the pair so I couldn't pass them up. That and the intercooler are about the only visually different things about my corona!

hey mr-rolla, what exactly is different with the AE92 Levin GTZ seats? i just have the stock SX seats but if these ones are significantly better i may have to look for a pair. I take it that they will bolt straight in to an ae93?

I've got some Silvia seats in the RA28. Only reason I have these is they the only seat I could find to sit low enough so I have some headroom left.
I had some Honda seats but found my head on the roof and no way I could wear a helmet when racing.
They were super easy to fit also.
Cheers

Velo GP90 - wide version (extra 25mm wide for my big butt).
But mine's in a more sedate looking grey. Fibreglass seat, very strong and holds me in tight. Can't slide around at all; I had to get something like this so I could sit in the car with enough headroom (I'm 6'3"), but also wanted something with good lateral support. I have driven longish trips (1&1/2 hours) in these and don't find them too tiring; could do with a bit more lumbar support. Otherwise they are really good, if a little pricey. But they are made in Oz and pass ADR I think??

Must be talking about my seats too... Autotecnica Monza 633's. Identical description, and they hold me in well too, even though I AM oversized for them. The cushioning has given way in the first couple of weeks, enough for me to sit comfortably in them. It's always fun watching passengers get into the other seat, because these are mounted so much higher than the stock seats (or the front is at least), giving the impression of leaning backwards in the seat. They get in and the first reaction is always "whoa!"... it's so not what they expect. They look pretty good too. Do a great job of holding me in properly going around those sharp corners.
