This afternoon i went to a shop who sells Sparco and OMP seats and ended up walking out with something different.
The Sparco ERGO didn't fit well and it was to tall compared to the rest. The Sparco circuit wasn't as comfortable as i had hoped. Jumped into the OMP HTE-R and it wasn't bad but then sat in the OMP HRC-R and it was perfect. It ticked all the boxes, i could see from the sides and all.
Its not going to be driven on the street to and from work ect, so im not bothered about getting in and out of it.

Paully - I experienced the same today. How did you mount the HRC-R to the 944? Please be specific with information on mounts, sliders, drilling holes etc. Thanks!!

Mine went in a 924. the floor is slightly different. I made mounts and welded them to the floor. no sliders. Sorry i have no photos at the moment.

I’ve had a Cobra Evolution GT in my street/track for a long time now, 7 years I think? Can’t remember, may be longer. It’s basically a to the track and back car, the odd cruise and coffee too. No issues.

Hi - should the top of your helmet be below the top of the racing seat’s back?

That's not a requirement, no.
