Hi all, I'm looking to recline by carbon buckets just enough to make wearing a helmet comfortable for track days. I don't find the stock position of the seats objectionable for street driving. I've seen a few different kits out there, and I wanted to get some feedback from people who have run these on performance and utility. I personally don't care about price.

• Autoquest -- seems like a simple kit, but apparently quite long, not sure I need this much adjustment
• TrackSpec -- CNC AL, seems solid, looks like maybe the shortest of these kits
• GMG -- a 3D machined AL part, maybe about the same length as the TracSpec
• TPC Racing -- another 3D version, claims a 3-degree adjustment

Maybe there are some I have missed. Quality and function are most important, and they also need to clear the readily-available sub strap bars. Would love to hear some info from people who have installed and tracked these parts.

Thanks!

I ran the design by jacob ones when i had my 991RS and the pricing was reasonable. A pair for $150 and can be put in when seats are in place.

I used it on track multiple times while wearing a hans and roll bar with no issues.

Been looking at these options also but I want the least amount of recline and they all a touch too much. Ideally it would an inch or less recline. Just to lift my legs up a touch for the long trips.
Trackspec looks to have the least lift but I like the construction of the TPC.

I went with Trackspec as I didn’t want too much lift. Very happy with them, def wouldn’t want seat any higher than this.

i just ordered and received the brackets from Renntechnik. Have not installed them yet

I just ordered the Jacob ones. I just wanted a minimal recline so we'll see. 150 isn't bad to just try a set.

I went with TPC. I'm happy with the amount of recline.

TPC.

Works like a charm. Perfect positioning.

Couldn't imagine sitting in these seats without them.

I have the GMG on my Speedster and I can really tell the difference when I get into my GT3 without them. They tilt just enough.

Thanks for the helpful replies everyone! Gave me confidence to get a set for my car. Much appreciated!

For those of you with the GMG kit, do you happen to know how much it reclines the seat? Not listed on their website. Thanks.

johnarpy

I believe it is only raised in the front about an inch. The back is maybe 1.5 tilted back but although visually you can't tell, it is much more comfortable than my unaltered GT3.

Got this from the good folks at GMG.


Our seat angle adjusters will pitch the front of the seat up 1".

I ordered and received the GMG pieces. I’ll install them next coming weeks and report back.



UPDATE!!!!!!
Upon closer inspection GMG just sold me the Trackspec pieces but with a up charge. Was not made clear to me this was the case when I contacted or purchased them. I have emailed them regarding this and waiting to hear back.
