Default Group Buy on Recaro Seats

Happy New Year everyone. Would anyone be interested in a GB for Recaro seats? I was interested in PP, but the GB is not limited to only one model.

I'd be interested in the GB if it included the SPG Pro Racer HANS seat.

I am interested in this one, http://www.recaro.com/index.php?id=3611&region=3&L=2

But if you are interested in a diff model, I can probably organize a Recaro GB rather thatn seat specific GB.

I have a set of PP for sale

https://rennlist.com/forums/for-sale...ts-1500-a.html

Text and pictures

Black vinyl with dark gray suede inserts. Both seats arein very good condition with no cuts, tears or gouges. Seats have only been mounted for a couple of years and have less than 10K miles of use. Includes side mounts(don't know what brand) and sliders for Porsche. Shipping date to Speedware shows as 11/2005.

These are only available for pick up in Dallas or I will drop off at a 75238 UPS pack and ship location if you make arrangements to pay for packing/shipping. Weight with hardware about 22 lbs each.

New cost is ~$2400. I want $1400 cash or $1450 if you paypal. This is a real deal on these great seats.

Email is mark@markwilson.net or cell 214-for seven eight-7272.

Just FYI guys, the Pole Positions fit fine if you have a waist up to size 36. The larger guys may want to look into the the SPG model. That being said, I had Pole Positions in my old car and loved them. Very comfortable and snug. Even on long trips they felt fine and I never felt fatigue.

I have a buddy looking for some seats to fit him. Problem is he is 6 foot 6 and all from the waist up. We are having trouble finding a seat where the belt holes are high enough to not compress his spine.

The new GT3 seats have dual shoulder harness holes. Have you tried those? Problem is they are 2x more expensive than PP.

The Recaro Sportster CS is a pretty good reclining seat. The old Recaro SRD (also known as Recaro Speed) is also good, but not as snug as the Pole Position. It does have a sub belt hole however, so it's pretty popular among the DE crowd I don't think the Sportster CS has that option.

And yeah, all these seats have a universal application. You can install them in a Porsche, VW, Honda, etc. Just make sure you buy the brackets and rails, since the price of the seat does not include those things.
