Maybe the biggest Sparco EVO(used to be called the EVO 3, then the EVO XL). It's like sitting in a damn lazy boy, but the big problem you'll find with fixed seats that big is that they won't fit between the trans tunnel and the door panel. Probably have to fab up mounts yourself too.

i was already pretty sure id have to beat on my trans tunnel and make mounts but i'll check em out. also anybody hear anything about, or use the corbeau fx1 wide or the omp big seat? i can't find any sizing info on the omp either.

I am currently 6'7" 285lbs, but a few weeks back I was 300lbs with a 44 inch waist. I use the Corbeau Forza II which is now called the Forza wide. Fits me like a glove at either wight. I used to run Bride MO rails which are pretty much the lowest bottom mount rails you can get but have now modified my floor board. Now I no longer touch the roof when I have a helmet on. If your gonna go with a corbeau they for sure fit big dudes.

lol this is me about a week ago with the new seating position.

sweet action that's actually allot of help. the reference pic defiantly makes a big difference on my ability to make a decision on this.

Cool glad to help, not many of us big dudes out there in these cars. More info on how we modified the floor pan are in my build thread here ---> Mestizo's 92 Nissan 240SX Coupe Build Thread - Mestiso.net Nor-Cal Streets Forum

arent most frp based seats safe till about 220-230 lbs.just a thought to consider when looking at seats.

DRFTxHRD · 11-16-2009, 03:13 AM

yeah but at the same time it wont be used all the time and im not as worried about it breaking as i am tired if getting tossed back and forth at events.
