racing seats = confusion

i talked to someone whos selling sparco seats and stuff from sparco.

he says
"For 93-02 corolla you will need to following bracket setup:
BASE Toyota Corolla 93-02L
Base Adapter
Seat Track set Flat
Price will be $145"

ive seen the brackets on corbeau for around 80 a piece

overboost.com has corbeau brackets for the 93 and up for $78.

racing seats = confusion

greetings, neway im lookin into sum racing seats and im considering getting the ones from jegs in black they look clean they have no logos or any stupid purple and orange color scheme but does ne1 have any info on their quality and can sum1 give a ballpark figure as to how much it'd cost to get em installed or a way i can do it myself without welding or ridiculous fabrication since i dont even have my own driveway thanks

you get what you pay for.

is there such a thing as a aftermarket direct bolt on?

there are brackets by Corbreau and i think Sparco makes it too for the 93-02 Corolla. But those brackets supposedly only fit their seats, im sure u can somehow get those to work wit other seats, or you can just get custom brackets welded. I paid $200 for installation and brackets for my seats so i think thats pretty much average price.

negative. you'll either need to get a bracket or make your own.

junkyard

you'd still need a new bracket for celica seats. both Vamp and i did that swap, and we have custom brackets made. his are significantly more involved(lots more welding) than mine, but both work.

how tough was it to do remember i have no welding experience whatsoever

mine involved no welding, just bending metal.


someone else around here - i don't recall whom - used basic aluminum strapstock cut to the proper length, and attached the seat to that, then that strapstock to the seat...it appeared fairly sturdy, and that's probably the easiest option. you'd still have to drill holes in the aluminum, though.

anyone want to buy a MOMO ?

Mine involved removing the brackets off my stock seats, welding two pieces of steel across to make a frame, then welding the Celica seat brackets to that.

wow and i thought overboost.com was overpriced

Right on guys
BTW anyone know of someone selling seats for cheap ( Not cheap seats )
although some of the links I sent were

would it be cheaper to get new seats or get used seats from a car with stock sports seats ie celica, civic si etc

I think that would depend on who you buy it from

vamp wher'd u get your seats and how much

From a junkyard using car-parts.com for $300

thats pretty decent. im sure there better quality than those cheap apc seats

and also u kno of ne other cars besides the civic si and celica with stock sport seats

WRX STi
any of the newer VWs(i think)
newer Subarus
umm...i believe the new Evo as well

RSX type S have sport seats

The new Evo comes with Recaros..good luck finding some of those, though..

besides the celicas and the Si's all those car's are either rare, have expensive ass parts, are too recent to find in junkyards or all three

heh


i can tell you don't have idiot kids in your area. there's a yard near me with a handful of STis, all wrecked...all with good interiors.

That's sad..heh

Any idea how much they want for seats?
