My New Seat! Sparco Torino 2 Reclinable

[beeza]

I've moved house and am driving 600 km's a week now (from 100...) so to compensate I bought a Sparco Torino 2 reclinable seat and fitted it (with a bit of help from my neighbour and his welder as I again destroyed another thread where the seat bolts onto the floor - that's 4 out of 8 now lol).

Anyways,I absolutely LOVE the seat.FINIALLY I'm sitting lower and it feels bloody great.I can just see the bonnet.I feel 'locked in' with the car now,centered and one with the car.It grabs on ya thighs/hips really nicely and you don't move at all in the corners Far Far better than EK4 seats.The thing is now I can really feel how boaty the suspension is and I could imagine with coilovers it would be better/less boaty.That's the thing with modding ya car aye,you do one thing and then ya gotta do another to compensate/balance it.Expensive

The seat is ADR approved.So I just needed an engineers certificate/mod plate for it which I got by ringing the RTA and getting a fella's number.$60 and a bit of paper later - All Good!

PICS!!!













Mod Plate!


It's a bit heavy at 23kg but it's one solid unit that just feels brilliant.I've never had such a good solid feeling seat before
I wouldn't use a harness with it as the holes for the harness are too low for me.

I need a headrest too as I find I rest my head back and I'm looking up! and feel like a snooze

Thank U!! - John (phantom Civic) for the rails! (and your patience )
Andy (akusuma) for the seat
AK Andy - Thanks again mate
