Momo Street Racers question
Okay I am looking to get some new Seats in the Near future. Not tha there is anything wrong with my Stock R seats. Just wanted something with a little more lateral hold and something with a little style as well.
I have contemplated Recar SRD, Aero Speed (recaro SR III Style), Sparco Torino/Milano (not too keen on the price), or the Momo Street racers
First Choice was the Yellow Suede Stock JDM R seats but the deal fell through and trying to find a set of these in Good shape for a decent price is Like trying to get a cold drink of water in HEll.
I have kinda given up on those. I have put my butt in so many seats now they all tend to run together.
Questions here are:
1) who has Momo Street Racers and or who has experience with them. They don't seem to be a popular as the Sparcos, but they run around the same price if not cheaper.
Main issues I want to know about is material quality.
2) Is it durable? Will it wear out quiclky.
3)How about Fitment. Are there any issue with the seats in the car or any issues with the Dirver not fitting or the seat being to snug? How about Visibility issues? (I am average size and height 175 pounds and 69 inches.)
4) Are there any issues with the seats sitting too low in the car.
5) Comfort. Are they a Comfortable Seat? Can I take a 4-6 hour trip without but butt falling asleep?
6) Compared to the other seats i have listed how would they rank?
Thanks any imput would be really appreciated. I know there are other seats out there. Just trying to narrow it down some. If you can offer any more insight into the Street Racers I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I have seen them for about as low as 1000 for the Set. Plus 200 for Sliders. They sell them for about 650 a seat retail.

Don't get torinos or milanos, they don't hold you in very well. I don't have any experience with the momos but the SRD's are a great seat, probably the best reclining seat as far as support is concerned.

Okay that's good to know. I guess sitting in the seat at the Auto Salon doesn't give you a feel for what it's like on the track. LOL
We had a discussion on AeroSpeed Seats a few weeks ago and lots of people said they compare very well to the Recaros. Some even said that AreoSpeed were made by recaro. I have not confirmed nor denied this information, but I just find it hard to get by the big AERO SPEED logo on the headrest. Call me superficial, but Hmmmm I find it a little hard to put too much faith in seats that cost 1/2 the price as the seats they were designed after.

I've sat on MOMO StreetRacers and they are very comfy and provides enough laternal support. I say "enough", 'cuz I'm used to a bucket seat and these reclinable seats really aren't the best when comparing lateral support. The height of the seat won't be any lower than stock seats as you have the slider at the bottom (as opposed to being on the side like bucket seats).
Anyway, MOMO quality is extremely good. I just think that they don't have good publicity like Sparco. Too bad for MOMO, 'cuz they aren't taking advantage of the "import scene".
p.s. IM Blake (ppihctyper). He's getting Recaro SRD's rebadged under his company's name and selling for lower than USDM SRD's.

Just me but I don't like the yellow sholders. What are they made of? Is the material similar to the Recaros? Recaro is probably my Favorite recliner on the Market right now. Not too familiar with Momo but they don't float my boat so it doesn't matter.
I like the Recaro seats also. I like the Momo Seats cause the shape looks good. I think it is the roundmess at the top of the headrest. unlike the Square recaros makes the seat look slim.
The Yellow shoulders are nice to match my car. But the seat comes also in Red and Black and Blue I think. (shoulders)

Momo is a very common brand where I live....
But in general:
You don`t want to buy seats without have them tested.... A seat that does not fit to your body shape perfectly can be a fun killer...
You better go with a comon seat you know... I have good experiences with the OMP type Grip.
