what kind of seats??
well the car is going to haev some paower to it, but i am going to use it as a dialy driver and autoX *autox after i get my new car in about a year* im wondering what are some good aftermarket seats. my parents said they will buy the seats and new carpet for me for my birthday *which totally caught me off guard seeing how they dont like my car* i want some seats that have either 5-point harness holes in them, and/or are very cofortable. any ideas? thanxs
Best of luck with your request. I posted the same question a couple of weeks ago and got zero responses. About the only nonstock seats that get discussed around here are fourth-gen F-body seats.
I know of one member who has Momo seats in his '89 (?) IROC 'vert. There also used to be a member that has some Jamex seats in his IROC. I believe they were black Monacos.
I prefer the Sparco Supersport, but I can't find anyone who has installed anything similar ina third-gen. You may also want to look at www.corbeau.com They have some pretty nice seats. The A4 is close to what I want but it doesn't come in grey.

I run Corbeau Targa RS seats. I paid extra to have my sub-belt holes installed to be NHRA-legal. They fit nice, but are too tall. My friend runs Flofits, and his were too tall also. He had a welding shop cut 1" out of each bracket, and now they fit nice. I am doing the same to mine.

Recaros are the best hands down, but you are going to pay for it.
Sparco and Corbeau are both great seats...all depends on what you want.

Most of the bracket kits that you get are to tall for people over 5' tall. I'm 6'4" and the brackets I got with my sparco trinos were so high that I was hitting my head on the t-top.
I got rid of those and modified my old brackets to work. Now its like sitting on the ground.
