Will Bride FG rails work with a Sparco Evo L seat??

Only if the seat is sidemount and is small enough to fit between the brackets.

I'm looking at getting the FG rail but some say the large sparco evo will fit, some say it wont.
It is side mount and I can find dimensions on the seat. But I can not find any tolerance on the adjustability on the rail.

Basicly; will my fat ass seat fit in the rail?

So I was wondering if any one on here has any experience with the two specifically.
Thanks.

You can make custom brackets to extend further out if needed.

The headroom and hiproom are limited by the design of the car.

I have a Bride FG and can measure the max width on the stock bracket on an S13 if needed.

Thanks. Any info is greatly appreciated!!

Im not to worred about head room. Im 5'10 and 220. Its more my shoulders and back that make me need the big seat.
But I want to be lower. The stock sparco mounts are for midgets or something. LOL.

Not sure if the Evo L is going to fit you... I've got a 34" waist and it's a tight fit, and I'm 6' 3" and 185lbs. If you already have the seat and fit... disregard what I just said.

The headroom is a big issue on the S-chassis. If the seat is too big, it won't clear the rails and will sit on top of the rail like a bottom mount.

At that point, your head will hit the roof.

Ideally, you should cut out the seat bracket and bolt a universal bottommount rail to the floor.

That's what I did and I got an extra 6-7" of headroom.
