ok ppl i have a dilemna

i need to buy a pair of seats for my r34

i had bride ergo 2 in black leather and i loved them, however i have sold them now to get fixed backs and they need to be FIA approved for drag and circuit work.

i have a set of sparco evo's at home which are nice but id prefer to keep them for another project im starting soon.

Depends on whether you are a big guy or not, the Sparco will fit a larger frame where as the Zeta III is pretty damn tight. I'm a fairly slim guy and even I found the Zeta III to be borderline to tight. Best bet would be to try and have a sit in both and see for yourself what you think.

Lol 30-32 depending on the jeans.

This is when it was fitted in my car for a while because my mates car was off the road so he let me borrow it. Don't get me wrong it transforms the way you drive, you are so snug in it you feel every little thing the car does. It's just bloody tight and made for a small frame.

Get the BRIDEs cos its a street car. My mate has an OMP seat similar to the SPARCO in his drift car, and before it was derego'd it was a flamin mongrel to drive on the road cos you couldnt see a damn thing out the side. Its perfect now its a dedicated race car, but for the road its crap.

if you are a bigger guy.... look at a velo GP90, or if you wanna splash the the cash, a podium :) then come in L, XL and XXL

the zeta 3 even inthe large size is a small ass seat!

i dont really care about the adr approval as long as it is fia approved is all that matters to me.

those velo seats look terrible .... they wont do for my car.

joeyjoejoe...im not that big in the waist size 33ish but i have huge shoulders so i dont mind if the bottom of the seat is tight as long as the shoulder section flares out a fair bit

my ergo 2's were the perfect seat i actually regret selling them but they r not fia approved :bunny:

the podium actually looks really good in person... and they are comfy as fuck.... i'm just trying not to spend the extra $400 as that's the money for the rails lol

if youn are a 33" waist you wont have any troubles with the brides.... i can fit in them (not comfortably) and i wear a 38"

if you wanna go to access auto's in vermont they have around 6 types of brides on display :D

I had the standard size Zeta III and I've got a 33.5-34" waist. It was snug, but I daily drove it for a while just fine. I couldn't wear bulky clothes, so if you are a wannabe rapper and wear pants that are too big for you, you won't fit. But if you wear normal clothes, you should be fine with the L size Zeta.

    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
