Bucket Seats

I'm shopping for some seats and it seems like everyone has their own opinion on what I should get. So I thought I'd ask you guys. Who has what and what your impressions are.

So far 3 different suppliers recommended 3 different seats. I was told Cobra Monaco Pro by one, OMP TRS-E by another and OMP WRC by a 3rd. The last one is apparently the only seat that would fit into an SX taking the width between the tunnel and sill into consideration.

I don't want to buy crap, so I'm willing to spend a little to get a quality seat. I want something safe and comfy with side support that won't make me tired. It will mainly be for track use, so FIA approved only...

Go to ATS and find one that is most comfortable...

If it was that easy I would be sitting in mine making whoosh noises already. Seeing as I'm in PE and no one here stock anything proper they will need to order specifically for me. So I'll have to buy without ever having sampled the goods and that I do not really want to do.

I was in CT last week and I visited G and A promotions and they indicated that I should go for the OMP TR-E seat. The sales guy had it in his car and he said he was happy with it from a comfort vs. cost vs. support point of view. I also contacted ATS and according to them the only seat that will fit into and SX taking the width of the floor pan into consideration is the OMP WRC. The other seats are all too wide apparently.

Quite a lot of guys overseas have fitted the WRC seat and it seems like most of them are happy with it. There where a few complaints but you can't always please everyone I suppose.

I bought a Cobra Monaco - great seat and would definitely fit in the car, but my hips were too wide to fit in it (And I have a 32/34 waist)
There is no simple answer for this, you have to see in what seat you fit.

I do have a set of Recaro SRD seats from an Evo 4.....not sure what I am going to do with them. Will most likely end up selling them.

Might be heading up to JHB in a few weeks so might just stay a day longer and go shop a little. Sucks not having anywhere here to go to get proper stuff...
