Default Z06 Racing Seats

What do you guys think the interest would be on selling these? All leather racing seat with cut-outs for 5-points and the Z06 emblem in the headrests.

SWeeet!

would love to see a guy strapped into that-better yet, with a helmet and getting ready to hit the track:)

thumbs up here even though I don't race-I would probably buy the seats 'cause they are kewl

Looks real good.

Which, if any, of the stock seat adjusters would still work?

Estimated price?

Interested! Like everyone else I'd like more detail: Direct bolt in? Weight? Width? Adjustments? Price?

Those look awesome!!! I would definately buy a set, but without the Z06 emblem of course. :D And if the price was reasonable too. Price would have to be under $1000 per seat.

Anyone know how to get a little more clearance? Being 6'4 can be a b*%ch with a helmet on. I was thinking of going to Sparco's or something if I could get some extra headroom.

I'm interested as I'm currently looking into the Sparco Torinos for my Z. Would a black seat w/ yellow insert be available?

I will be getting everything together and I will let you know. I believe that they will be the same weight if not less and I am just guessing that the cost will be $2500 per set. These will be leather with your choice of color, and yes in suade too. I have done a set like this for my Dakota truck. They were Viper seats and it was very easy to just bolt on the stock seat mounts so it retained the power set up. I know this is alittle on the expensive side but if you compare it to other racing seats in leather it is actually comparable or less expensive. I just thought about this idea last night so I haven't done any research yet and the price maybe actually too high. I will get more info together and let everyone know. Thanks for your interest. I think I have finally found something that people are interested in.

Jason,
I need an "Arizona" model.... NO LEATHER, cloth (like the std. Recaro fabric) is a must when your Z is parked out in 113ºF sunshine. "Every car seat in Arizona is a Heated Seat!" Really, any chance of a cloth version... lower $$$ too! -HarleyB
Seats do look :cool: :cool:

If the price is right, I might be interested. It would have to be a nice, supportive seat.
