I dont have any direct links off hand, but I am sure if you search you will find tons of info. Not just on this site, but try google or something too. Racing seat manufacturers also have info on their websites. Most importantly, get something safe and comfortable.

How much money you got?

My brand of choice is Sparco. They make an excellent product and I have never heard of any safety issues with their seats. I used to have some and I was very pleased. I will most likely be getting Torino 2's for my car.

Just be leary of true racing seats for daily use. A lot of them can wear easily. The car I'm buying had Sparco's in it and they have wear on both seats with minimal use.

In a semi-recent SCC they had a HUGE seat comparison. Even broke it down to wait sizing.

A few manufacturers:

Sparco (http://www.sparcousa.com)
Corbeau (http://www.corbeau.com)
Kirkey (http://www.kirkeyracing.com)

And of course...

Summit - various brands (http://www.summitracing.com)

Good luck - and don't be surprised if its the best money you ever spend on your car. Jim.

thanks, i need to find that issue of SCC i've heard of it before. i like the style and name of the Sparco brand. i don't think they post them on there site after the issue expires

I'd really like some Sparco Torinos for my car, but I can't justify the $1200 price tag.

iv had the sparco torinos for over a year now and have put about 40k on my car with them and havent had any problems. The still look the same as when i put them in. No tears or anything. Id say they are well wroth the money with the amount of compliments iv gotten on them and they are hella comfortable

nickatiah

well i looked around and found some install info on various seats. the torinos are nice but alitt5le out of my price range. mabey i'll buy one at a time

for the amount of money you're going to be spending on the torinos you could have a nice set of recaro seats, which in my opinion are superior to sparco.
