Reclining racing seats for a big man

[spirit]

I'm looking for some racing seats for my size 44 ass. Any sugestions (other than loose some weight fat ass). So far best I have seen are some r32 skyline seats. Seats are for a S13 240sx.

I know Sparco has some larger versions of their "regular" seats now. I forgot the specific model names, but I'm sure you can find them on the Sparco site.

search next time please (thats the first time ive said that:rawk:)

[!Zar!]

Is searching the hardest thing in the world. From what I've personaly seen, Corbeau seats were best for, men with meat on their bones?

I got a nice set of s14 seats - fits me perfect

but then again I am not much for the aftermarket seats - to snug for my arse

6'8" 275lbs size 40 waist

My S13 is kinda like a big go-cart to me

OR you could get the equivalent to a sofa when it comes to "racing buckets" COBRA seats. Those things are HUGE.

You FIT in an s13 (height wise)??? I'm only 5'11" and I am barely clearing the roof... barreeelllyyy.

There was a huge thread about aftermarket seats in 240's, you should search for that thread spirit.

You will want to consider that reclining seats, nearly all of them will raise your seat height from 1-2" because they are bottom mount. If that is not an issue, there are Sparco Evo 2 and even Sparco Evo 3.

WOW thats like a double oxy-moron,

1. racing seats are not reclinable
2 a racing seat for a big guy, is harg to find.

but the GIAS by bride is probably the only reclibnable taht might be able to fit in the race + reclinable area, but one cost more than many S13 and plus, i dunno if its for a big guy.

I have a base model 240 no roof - seat is reclined a bit and i fit snug

e-brake is not easy to pull off

[CAMFabrication]

You can order PRPs, Beards, and Mastercraft racing seats that are a few inches wider, a few inches taller, a few inches deeper, and any combination of the three for a few extra bucks per seats.

R32 seats will give you a VERY uncomfortable seating position unless they're from a GTR, dont waste your time with GTS-T seats. I'm 6 ft 5" & 270 pounds, I use Recaros from an older Evolution 2, which have less obtrusive boldsters than the newer styles have. You will probably wind up having to shell out more money than you planned for nice seats which will fit your needs...

well, I'm a big guy too and was wanting the same as you, a reclinable racing seat.....well I'm not sure what model it is but Bride has a reclinable racing seat where there's like no sides to it, they barley come off the seat.so i would think that they made it for us + size guys, I haven't got a chance to look for the pic, but if someone could post a pic, that would be cool.

i can't see how some of you bigger/taller people fit/sit inside comfortably on stock seats or non aftermarket rails...
with lower rails modded/aftermarket i can see,

but wow, i thought the car was small for me, but for you bigger guys, wow...

[OptionZero]

the gias is smaller than the brix, and the brix is pretty small already

don't go japanese, go american or recaro/sparco

[IES13]

Corbeau seats with the wide opinion are great for big\tall people. Also easy on the wallet.... =)

[BOMEX180]

get something like the Sparco Torino's

[Sky240PWR]

http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/4457/bridexax29yu.jpgyeah thats the seat....it looks like it would fit a big person better then all the other jap seats with the high sides.....I've always thought BRIDE and Nissan went together like PB&J, or like Recaro and Honda.........i'm also a big guy(size44) and the stock seats do me just fine, I even drove a 2000mile trip with it, so if this bride seat is anything like stock, then i'll get it..........anyone know anybody who has this seat?

[umsports]

The Megan seats (sorry for the plug) actually hold my 38" waist perfectly....and there's still room to spare....

This may be a more affordable option for you...just something to consider...

[kaotic]
