what seats do you use?

[pantherballhp]

Just wanted to see what people were using for seats in their cars for weight/function. I'm going to be putting new seats in my car soon to replace the faded/dingy white stock seats that are in it and I might as well put something in it that are light since this will be primarily a track car.

Just wanted to see what the majority of you use. Kirkey? Recaro? Corba? Jegs or summit?

I would like to throw the seats on the scale and see what they weigh...I bet most of the weight is in the steel tho..

i would say it's all in the framing of the seat. Of course the padding doesn't weigh much.

I love my corbeau forza. I have done many trips with it. Its light, cheap and still comfy and movable. And still able to do the 5 point.

I run a set of sparco evo 1 fixed back seats and love them. They are light as hell and for being fixed back they are still quite comfy. I have driven my car for 4.5 hours straight before and had no issues doing it.

I wondr if swapping out the steel base and making al aluminum one, how much weigh that would save?

I've heard the forza's were awful which made me shy away from them. But I love the way they look

I wonder if anyone has made an effort on replicating our seat brakets, out of aluminum..I'm going to look into that..

I sat in one of my friend's kirkey's today and it was way better than i remembered. Might just do two of those and call it a day.
