Hey guys, quick question............

I'm planning on picking up this bucket seat...
http://www.tommotorsport.com/2005/shop/index.php?page=detail&id=250&lang=en&devise=USD#

Someone on here said it was just like a bride BRIX but cheaper...
I'm curious if bucket seats naturally sit lower than reclining seats?
I've got a set of universal 240 brackets but I don't know if they'll sit low enough for that seat... Any comments?

My Ergo seems to sit lower than my Zeros.

Tom's Motorsports. Hahaha.

No "universal" seat style rail will sit low enough for a 240.

Get Bride FG or Nagisa D Lock.

As far as THAT seat goes, I'll keep my comments to myself.

New rule of thumb: Fuck the universal stuff.

That isn't even cheap...get Buddy Club, SPL, Chargespeed, or save for a Recaro/Bride

my suggestion for seat rail if you really want it to sit low, make your self a custom rail, thats what i did and got it pretty much as low as it will get.. i really wanted it just a bit lower but that would require cutting up the floor plan for which i really didnt have time or wanted to mess with.. yes would have came out better but this will work just fine.. tested with a helmet and have at least two finger gap from top of the door jam :-) i'm 5-11 btw..
