KatoKid Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 As much as I love the look of my reconditioned 240 factory seats I've come to realize they are garbage for spirited driving so I'm looking at race style seats. Not full on race seats but seats that will provide good support without being impractical for my sunny Sunday drives! The only ones that I have seen that fit well are Velo Milano but they don't make them anymore so interested to hear what people are using and that fit well. Thanks.

mossy Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I had the recaro pole position ABE seats in mine, very snug. Only decent pic I have is here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBR Jeff Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Dave have you looked at the other Velo offerings? The Milano was the perfect seat. I have been thiking about the GP90 seats but have not done the maths to see how well they will fit with the larger dimensions. Being ADR compliant is a big selling point for the Velo seats from my point of view. Jeff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmd Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Dave, 2 matching Recaro Pole Position in leather would suit your car nicely. (a bit of change from $3K) KatoKid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cozza Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I’m about 95 kegs and have the Velo GPT-2. It fits both me and the car well, just a little tight on the handbrake. KatoKid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatoKid Posted October 6, 2018 Author Share Posted October 6, 2018 Thanks guys, sounds like there are some options out there. Will do some more research Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDM-TOY Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 @KatoKid these bride Historix are nice. Im thinking of getting these. They look similar to the Nissan dealer performance upgrades OdinZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDM-TOY Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 @CBR Jeff yeah these are nice. Didn't know that they weren't ADR approved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hokin Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Is that due to the fact that there is no head rest on them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBR Jeff Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Happy to be corrected but I don’t think any of the Bride seats are ADR approved. Don’t think many aftermarket seats are. A good mate had all sorts of problems last year with Sparco seats in his car (1600). They were not ADR approved. The officer who stopped him was so excited he was vibrating when he looked at the seats knowing they were not ADR approved defected the car. Then he went all over the car as in his words “what else have you changed?”. Was a complete pain, and cost him a fortune. I haven’t gone into it fully but I would assume thet to ADR compliant you would need to submit paperwork to Infrastructure Australia for approval. Then you can display the sticker, much like Australain Standards approvals. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmd Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Dave, the bride seat authorised dealer is Import Monster and they are just around the corner in Bayswater. Worth checking them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
