im really intrested into buying a pain of the buddy club racing seats.
i want to kno if the wide ones will fit the R with the arm rest still in the middle.
also what brackets and mounts do i need?... sparco?...if so where can i get them from?

thanks for looking

 

the sparco ones will work but thye sit high. I was recommended the MUGen but we all know how much those are

 

I run the sparco mounts.. They do sit a bit higher, but the seating position is better to work the pedals IMO, plus I'm rather short ~5'6"..

Also the normal ones are very narrow, so the wide ver. which is only slighty wider should fit no problem.

Buddy Club supposedly makes their own mount, I'm awaiting pricing from them. When I find out Ill post it up.

 

thanks for the help guys

 

I was also interested in these seats. To be honest they look like they have the same mold as the mugens... I'd love to own the mugens or brides but I also want to use my money elsewhere.

I can't find anyone selling the rails for the bc seats...

 

mugens have a snug fit. i am 5'8-5'9 at 135 and i am pretty snug in mugen seats. if i weighed 170..i think i would have a problem getting into mugen seats.

fat people + slim bucket seats=no no

 

BC is not cool if you are over 150lbs.......

They make a wide version too.

For anyone looking into sliders, the Bride FO and Vision super low sliders will work.

 

apparently the vision super low seat mounts are all you need. 319 for driver and passenger pair from jhpusa.com

 

Anyone have other rails that fit on the cheap ?

Aren't those for bottom mount seats? or do they have an option for sidemounts?

I feel like my roommate just used those with a set of recaros (bottom mount).

im 5'9 and 175 and fit fine into my Mugen, although it is a bit snug in the shoulder and lat areas.

btw: i am not fat

 

So far,

Sparco Sit a tiny bit higer then normal

Mugen / Spoon / Vision / Bride are perfect fits

Memory Fab have some and is fairly cheap

Any one else have anything else on the cheap

Thanks for replying guys your all big help

 

I know a guy that can get the Vision rails for a decent price. Anthony/itracer121 has a set coming at the end of this month.

 

We usually recommend Bride or Sparco rails...sometimes it does tend to ride higher than stock....

and yes we do offer 2 sizes, one for the skinny guys and ones for the big boned men like me =D

but listen to JHP, they know what they are doing, and have been one of our most reputable dealers

Don't forget the sidemounts



I picked mine up from http://www.soloracer.com

 

Oh yeah, thats right you would need them too.

Any one have this setup in thier civic ?? and how do you find the seating position? Good or Bad ? or would you have spent a tad more on mounts and get a Bride or Spoon Rail etc?

Thanks for the input guys
