280Z S&W door bars - seat clearance


Forces

Recommended Posts

While installing my cage I found that the stock datsun seats don't quite fit. I haven't welded the bars in yet, but I am looking for something that is a little bit narrower both on the seat cushion and on the back brace. I have no problem welding up some brackets for it, so that's not really an issue. Problem is, short of a fixed poly bucket, it seams that a lot of the aftermarket "racing seats" are a bit cumbersome. I'm not too worried about having a lot of legroom, I only 5'7". Anyone have the same problem?

PS. For those of you who have searched and not found, the S&W 8 point will work in a 280Z, you just have to get a single-retractor style seat belt and possibly put 2 bends in the horizontal bar on the main hoop if your taller than 5'8" or so.
