Yeah I have the Corbeau Carrera's (blue) in my Si and are currently selling them , because I bought a Bride Zeta III. They are nice quality seats, I have had them for a year and have no problem. The drivers side is worn a little but that is just normal wear. Overall great seats for the money. I have a for-sale post in the sale forum.

i work at a shop which sells bride, corbeau, and sparco. Personally, i wouldn't trust the corbeau. If you compare the sparco torino and the corbeau's verson, its like night and day.

I love mine. I'm 140lbs though and if I have anything more then a t-shirt on they start to get tight around the tidney's. Let me know if you have any more questions.

I have sat in the Cr1s before. They do sit low and have tight kidney support, it feels really nice ripping corners in them. not bad for the $ IMO.

Any real reasoning behind that? Just cause they don't cost as much, doesn't mean they aren't as good as Sparcos. I've personally inspected and sat in the A4, CR1, Torino, SRD and various Bride and JIC seats and the only difference I can find is in the fabrics and fit. All seemed to be on the page in terms of quality and saftey...

I'm looking at the A4s right now. I've sat in them in a DA and I love them. Super supportive, good quality and a great price.

As long as your not buying Tenzos or R1s or that ****, I think you're good to go...
