i need to buy some seat brackets for my bottom mount sparco non-reclinable seat. i was gonna get one custom made but that shit was taking too long and costing like $150+. i already have the sliders but i need a bracket that bolts to teh floor. titan sells 2 brackets and i can't figure out what the difference is and everytime i call they are closed

I got a Sparco EVOl and the shop that installed the seat used Sparco mounts and welded them to the stock feet of the rail system.

I had originally made some brackets that were basically the same as the oem ones, but the seat sat entirely too high for me. I'm 6' and my head was half and inch from the roof. Anyways, to got the seat to sit lower because I set the brackets slightly under the support beam that the original seat brackets attach to. I welded my new brackets which bolt to the sliders to that support beam.

If you want the seats extra low its going to cost big time, unless you're a badass and can make stuff yourself.

i have sparco sprint seats, and im getting my friend to fab me up some superlow brackets. If you use sliders it will sit up alot higher. Im 6'3 and my car has a sunroof, so I need as low as possible.

IM not paying 400 for brackets either, thats retarded.

Ca_laurier · 04-17-2007, 03:53 PM

i used stock mounts modified for my old sparco sprint. it sat way to high and there was no way i could put a helmet on

i suggest a bride rail just cause they sit low and you won't have a problem at all

slideways2004 · 04-17-2007, 04:43 PM

yeah, i'm not using sliders. my car is a hatch with no sunroof= the most headroom other than a vert w/ the top down.

i'm weighing out my options right now. i might buy some metal and just make them myself.

slidecrave86 · 04-18-2007, 11:50 PM

i got some sparco seats and the kid gave me some brackets but they are from a civic and the passenger side.. but the part that bolts up screws on the the bracket so can't i just take those off and then use the stock ones and either weld them on or just screw them on some how and be done with it or will this still leave me sitting high i'm only 5'9" would i still be ok... thanks and sorry for kinda thread jacking

slideways2004, you have a PM.

I have a passenger set of the Nagisa auto side mount rails which are killer.
