Oversteer Posted March 5, 2024 Posted March 5, 2024 Have retrimmed factory seat in car, I'm 6'4" and the seat needs to be lower, and way lower for helmet use....which may require rail and seat frame mods same as I have done to other cars. The original seat is also made for a small person and fairly uncomfortable so i want to fit something else rather than mod that. Seems fairly narrow between the tunnel and sill, what seats have other people fitted ? Quote
C.A.R. Posted March 5, 2024 Posted March 5, 2024 The issue you will find is that the factory Z seats have a very low base, so any 'modern' seat will sit you up higher that the standard item. If you intent to use your Z in competition, I suggest looking at a fixed back bucket - FWIW I have a Sparco Sprint in my race Z and I'm also 6'4, and i don't have any helmet clearance issues. Quote

Oversteer Posted March 6, 2024 Author Posted March 6, 2024 Ok thanks for that. Looks like the factory floor/seat mounts will have to be lowered to get anywhere near where I want it. Quote
