[sillydrift]

ok so i just got a sparco evo 2 seat, i mounted it in my s14 but im too tall i sit really close to the roof, im 6'1, does any one know whats the lowest seat mount, rail i can use, its a side mount seat, i have searched but i cant come up with a direct answer, thanks for your help

bride low max rail? very solid very low for most seats.

nams d lock? what kind of seat rail are you using?

[chuy]

If your Evo seat is anything but the basic. Meaning L, XL they wont fit on any of those mounts. I had to make mine custom, since the stock mounts are kinda side and bottom mount.

i have the sparco sliders and base mont thats what im using, but im too tall for it so i took it out

Mine is "fixed" the only thing mine is the feet to a bracket then the seat. My seat does not slide back.

Im 6'1" also I used nams super low rails they let me sit the bottom of my sparco evo on the floor of the car alteast the back but part

[nissan240sxkid]

oh forgot have the brides on other seats the nams are lower once you flip the rear seat mount bracket on the rail...thats how I got it to sit on the floor or almost I couldnt fit my pinky under it and the seat still slides

which model of nams are you using? i found two diffrent sets, i know the evo2 is wider im just wondering if it will still bolt on to the sides

[nissan240sxkid]

um I was using the reg evo but the rails or brackets to the seat from rails do move in and out a bit....I think if you had to make a small mod it would still me worth it

[sillydrift]

cool thanks ill try them out

what ever rails dont have the a cross piece that connect to each other so the seat can fit inbetween them instead of on top is the way to go and I never noticed a diff from a platform style rail...

It wont fit in a bride rail by a long shot but if you want to go low you kinda need to use those rails unless you custom fab something... What I do is add tabs on the side closest to the door which mounts them wider and put the seat in. It's slightly off center but not really noticable only problem I have had is you have to move the trunk/gas door latch...

yeah i heard that too, i was going to go with the nams/Nagisa Sidemount Ultra Low Seat Rail, they look like they would fit

hey bro. use the nams/nagisa rails. thats what i have on my evo right now. they go very low.

[e1_griego]

Those probably won't work, but not sure. I have an evo2 that I got with some bride rails, and it didn't fit (not by a long shot). Ended up having a friend make me a fixed bracket that puts the seat *right* along the cat hump...can't get any lower.

I think that's about your only option since the seat is wider than the jdm-sized seats.

Take a picture of your installed seat so I can tell you what you're doing wrong..
