an $81 SPARCO Torino seat is bound to suck, be uncomfortable, and not hold you tight.

Buying those Torino is like buying NISMO carpet..it's because it looks cool and is a good brand name.

Sparco Torino are like $700 dollar seats. The reason I asked if they are real was because SO FAR the bids are low on it,

I'm pretty sure those seats are new, so shouldn't they be as comfortable as other Torinos?

I doubt they will sell for $81


BTW anyone heard good things about those Netami Racing Seats?

Sparco Torino's are comfortable as hell. I have a few friends who have had those seats and they hold you in pretty good (harnessed ofcourse) if those Torinos on Ebay are real, i think imma get the Torinos for now....

Wow, they are that bad? They didn't look bad but I know that "looks" don't determine "quality."

Out of curiosity, can you explain why they are horrible?

Let's say I had about a $700 budget for seats, what would you recommend (other then the already mentioned R32 seats ) ? I'd prefer to get a pair.

If I was a little taller and wanted to stretch all the time I could take out the driver's seats and sit in the back.

R33 GTR. S15 is a better than s14 but does not compare to R32/3 GTR.

they MUST be R32/3 GTR seats, if you dont get GTR seats, your just getting s14s or something similar.

get a used Brix I/II

you are driving the car, not your passenger, so your passenger doesnt need seats

R32 is approx 600 but ive seen prcies going up to 725 now
