they both look cheap as ****. i say get whatever reputible manufacturer makes your seat.

seats are not an item to skimp and go cheap on. i remember in one magizine they tested a real sparco to a fake sparco, the real one withstood 60 G's and the fake barly took 5.

Damn!!!! You better use those cheap peice of **** seats for grand turismo4 battles.

NEVER use a racing seat that isn't FIA or SCCA approved. It will serously hurt you in an acident.

well **** if they seem super stable they will be totally safe!

do you understand how much force is in a car accident? there are easily 40g's worth of force in a low speed (40mph) accident

so if you weigh 200lbs, thats 4000lbs of force pressing onto the back of the seat.

cheap seats are NOT SAFE. if you dont spend at least 300$ on a seat you are risking your life.
