Hey I'm trying to decide between these two sets of seats, lemme know what you guys think (sorry for the big pics):

Driver/Passenger

1) Sparco Pista/Sparco Speed

2) Momo Rookie/Momo Rookie

the Momo's are lighter, and a little smaller, and I'm not sure about the Sparco's...just wanted some input

I like the Momo's.

 

[SmutasticGT]

^^^i like the momo's as well

do not get fixed position racing seats, u will be uncomfortable on long rides. Get adjustable racing seats.

You'll miss your reclining function, trust me. IF I had to choose I'd go with the sparco's, or the cheapest one :chuckles:

Unless you race go with a reclinable, their much more feasable for a daily driver..

I've got an extra seat from a wrecked Celica that I can swap in for the driver if I'm ever worried about a long trip (the passenger will just have to deal with it)...as for teh reclinable function, I was looking for something FIA homogulated, and I couldn't find a reclinable one I liked...the Momos would actually be cheaper and lighter and I think they would give a better fit (they're smaller eg. slimmer), however, the Pista looks like it has deeper bolsters and would hold you better...however, where the Momo is a fiberglass shell, the pista is a tubular construction, some people have said that because of that it doesn't flex as much during an accident, and you therefore have a great risk of breaking your ribs...anyway...does anyone have any experiance with either of these seats or brands of seats in general?

 

[LightningRod]

Neither. Not a fan of fixed-position racing seats.

the momo's and first sparcos look the same? just keep the stock seats you could probaly get a new fabric cover for em if you dont like the stock one.

 

[Carbonized_GT]

i like sparco torinos.. too bad they arnt one of your choices.

 

[Shizuma]

^ my friend has some torinos in his ITR...they're nice, but they don't feel much different than the stock seats

know where to buy new covers for our stock seats?

 

[pnoy]

bucket seats on a daily driven car is ridiculous. :rofl:

 

[hombredelassrta]

i am a momo fan but those dont look comfterble at all. yes ur saving money and weight with fixed position but the added padding and adjustability of a reclinable will be well worth the $ and the couple lbs more

 

[Mistrimeat]

:wtf: Virtually every car produced the past 30 years to present time has bucket seats in it from the factory.

 

[Shizuma]

Cool, thanks for the opinions guys....like I said, I'll still have a stock seat lying around for when I get tired of the racing seat, or if I'm going to be in for the long haul

I've got the TRD seats that come with the panasonic eddition, and I LOVE THEM! Tried the Recaros outs the EVO!?!?!? I only weigh 160Lbs and I'm six feet tall, so I need a seat with a skinnier profile and those two are great, as above the Sparco Torinos are sweet too, jump up a couple models and get the reclinable ones with the carbon fibre shell, and then you're got some weight reduction AND some carbon to show off!
