sorry mine is a 89 hatch but I use a sparco rev with a custom bracket on the factory rail, I tried using the sparco bracket but couldn't get it to sit low enough.

i used the wedge engineering bracket, it does sit kinda high but im using the factory thick *** rails also. it was completely bolt in and the only real work i had to do was break the welds on the custom bracket i had so i could get the rails off

I used the siderails for my seat and some 1/4" steel plate stock. I drilled the plate stock to line up with the aftermarket siderails (attaching the seat) and to the stock Honda rails. The seats are on sliders without the aftermarket rails. For additional bracing (seat dependent) you could attach plate stock from side to side as well.

HTH, Overkll

For my old sparco, I used the rail they provide (made by wedge engineering) and their slider. On my new sparco I haven't gotten the slider yet, so I had to do a lil custom drilling in the wedge bracket to make it fit. It's a little farther away from the pedals than I'd like it to be, but it did fine and hopefully by the next event I'll have the slider in. Here's some pics:
