EvilC Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/LIKE-NEW-USED-3-MONTHS_W0QQitemZ170055195456QQihZ007QQcategoryZ107069QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I try to get the owner to give me some measurements on the seat but that failed. I do have a MSA cage going inside the car. Does the should wing look to wide to you guys? I know this is a common problem with lots of the racing seats.

Dtsnlvrs Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Those look similar to the MOMO street racer seats I have in my Z. the trick is to mount the seat a little offset to the inboard. You can also use a heavy duty cargo strap to "squeez" the wings in a little. The interference with the wings is that they will contact the door panel when you shut it. IMHO, buy the seats at that price and then do as stated above to make them fit. That is a great price. I paid $400 for a pair at the factory when I lived in Italy back in 99....

EvilC Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 Sorry, I called her and she wants $225 each seat. 3 months old....If she will do $325 for both I guess I can take the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotimport Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Those seats are a steal deal for around $350. And yes they should fit in a Z. I think any bucket seat should fit in the Z interior. I am shopping for seats my self and debating about fitting Recaro TomCats in, now thats a tight fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cethern Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Those should have no proplem fitting I had these in my 280 for a week. They came out because I sat to high. http://album.hybridz.org/showphoto.php?photo=11982&cat=500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilC Posted December 10, 2006 Author Share Posted December 10, 2006 OK lady didn't get to sell anything she posted on Ebay. She gave me a call and said make an offer for 2 seats, 2 5-point harness, and momo wheel......I offer $500 and she says fine. Best part about it, she should be dropping the parts of to my house later today. So when I go home for break, I can bring them back to school for some test fits.

2126 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Just a note to the guys having issues with sitting too high in aftermarket seats. Most race seats are built with a composite shell and are typically mounted with brackets attached to the sides of the seat. If installing this style of seat onto the stock seat cross members, you wind up sitting too high...especially when using sliders. What I recommend is to look for a race seat of the suspension design......basically a steel frame with suspension for the butt cushion. This design is typically an entry level race seat and are the least expensive. I choose the Sparco "Sprint" seats, as they are of the suspension design. They do not tilt either but are extremely comfortable. Payed approximately $200 for each. I mounted mine directly to the stock seat crossmembers, use a couple of spacers in the front to adjust seat angle, and for a 5' 11" tall guy I sit at what I think is the perfect height. And, the Sprint seat is narrow enough not to cause interference issues. Just some food for thought. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilC Posted December 20, 2006 Author Share Posted December 20, 2006 1 hour trip and $500 dollars got me these!! Love the seats even though I am not a fan of the red Great wheel! Pair of 5 point harnesses I am going to sell Sat in the seat for about 45 mins watching TV and no back issues. They are really fitting, any bigger and I would not fit! I am 5'10 205lbs. Can't wait to get them mounted in the car next month with the cage to see if it all works out. So what you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotimport Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Damw they look awesome, great bucket seats for $500 bucks. Steal deal i would say!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flames_187 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 evilC was making car noises over the phone while sittin in these seats...lol but they are clean lookin seats...lookin at them now, i see why you cant bend the bottom wings outward...they look tightly connected to the base and i dont think it will fit with the rollcage in the 240...

DavyZ Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 What do we think?!??? I think thou art not worthy and should'st betrothe thy parts unto the admin. Yep, looks like you got one heck of a deal there. I think I paid nearly half that for just my steering wheel alone. I love MOMO stuff---good quality and made in Europe.

Challenger Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Looks like you got a good deal! Im trying to find some good seats too. All you need now is nitrous to hook up to the two red buttons on the steering wheel, you can push them and everythin around you will start to get blurry cause your going so fast.

KTM-EXC Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 OK your right. I will mount them in my car and try around for like 5 yrs and if I think they are good enough for the admin, I will ship them next day =) Yeah I got a great deal.....now to dye the red suede..... $500!! great deal, they look awesome! How do you plan on dying the red sections? My friend got a car with those exact seats, except they were completly red and torn to hell. We tried using regular dupont fabric dye and it doesnt work very well. takes like 5 coats to even start working. hope that helps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeatrpi Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Evil I'm really getting excited to see your project come together. Perhaps this summer some time we can try again to line up our schedules and get together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
