I had 1 in my previous g20.Great seat,really conected me to the car.The quality of it is meh,but good an sturdy.I weigh in in at 220lbs an it fit me almost to snug for the first month,then I guess I got used to it or it got used to me? I used to take many long distance trips in mine as well.From los angeles to oregon,down to san diego every weekend an twice to vegas an I was just fine. :blah:

i love mine its hot. the sparco rails sit high which sucks but i'm short so :naughty: i use a sparco 4pt with it and overall i'm very happy with it.

i'm 5'7 and the seat is perfect for me. i once thought of upgrading to the "speed" for it's more durable material. However, after sitting in the speed, i realize it's not the same seat at all. The shoulder wings on the speed are placed higher for taller peeps, it was extremely uncomfortable. the bottom of the wings pinch my shoulders instead of hugging them like the sprint.

i guess what i'm getting at is the sprint is great and i love it, but if you're a tall fella you might find the sprint uncomfortable as i find the speed uncomfortable (since i'm a short dude)

have you sat in it yet?

Material is nice and soft making it quite comfortable...but it's also the biggest downside of the seat cuz the stuff wears fast. (also it fades in the sun pretty quick)

But if you get it i really think you won't even care cuz it's such a pleasure to drive in.

I think im going to. Im 5'9" so i think ill fit good in it. Now i just have to decide on a color, either go with the blue color and get black carpet and floor mats, Or go with black seats and then get electric blue carpet with black silvia floor mats. I know people are going to disagree with me on the carpet but ive been looking around hardcore and many many jdm cars have bright red carpet with the rest of the interior black or some bright color for the carpet. So since im going as jdm with my car as possible i guess im going to give the carpet a shot. The color is the bottom right color electric blue.

that car deserves something much better than sparco sprints! haha jk. but i love the carpet idea, i was going to do something unoriginal and bought pure black carpet for my white s14a but damnit, i like your idea! oh well, i'm not gonna even try to steal it.

[kcolyer27]

I photoshopped both combinations in my car. I kinda like black carpet with bright blue sparco seats. I think i might end up going with that. Some reason i think ill get tired of blue carpet

[Johny5]

are you buying a pre-molded carpet set or are you putting in your own carpet and molding it yourself? if you're molding it yourself could you please hit us up with a walkthrough?

[kcolyer27]

IM buying premolded carpet from stockinteriors.com

you can use bride seat rails on sparco seats right? if so that would be a nice seat once you get it sitting low.
