Hi Pin,

Here's a shot of the Evo 2s in my car:



The Evos look the same, but are a bit narrower. I've seen a 911 with Evo 3s, although I'm not sure how they made them fit! I had these same Evo 2s in my C4S for a while, and they were great for the track but terrible for the street. After 30 minutes or so they became quite uncomfortable, and getting into the back seat was a real pain. I wouldn't have them (or any other pure track seats) in anything but a dedicated track car.

As you can see, kids love Sparcos:



These were taken at a charity concours, where 20 or so kids took turns sitting in the racecar. The kids had a blast, and the parents were amazed that I was letting the kids crawl all over the car.

Phil, my Sparco habit is almost as bad as yours. I've got seats, suit, gloves, socks, balaclava, gear bag, steering wheel, and harnesses.

Skip,
I find my sparco's very comfy. I commute 60 miles a day

Getting in and out of the car is a hassle, but overall I find the seats more comfy than the stock seats.

I got a set off of FVD cat bypass pipes off of ebay. There's only 1 catch though, one of the flanges is slightly bent. So when I get them, I'll need to pay a visit to your muffler guy so he can help me install them.

I'm hoping to ask him to fabricate up a set of muffler bypass pipes while he's at it. Shouldn't be too hard, since it's just a bent piece of SS pipe with a flange on one end.

If the bypass is for the track, just some simple exhaust pipe will work. Most shops can't deal with Stainless around here (mandrel bends, material, etc). The guy I deal with in Pleasanton is great, and doesn't like to take you money.. Well Talk.

Matt, thank you so much for the pictures. Those seats look great, and I like them a lot Does the GT3 seat have the hole for the sub-belt, Matt?

Viperbob, you've got mail

Skip, thank you for the pictures... especially the kids pictures (specifically the 1st one, upper left one) Those seats look great too, so my choices are Sparco Evo 2, GT3 Fabric and Recaro PP. Thanks Skip Regarding track car, my car is 80% street and 20% track. If and when the economy gets better, maybe it'll be 50%-50%

Greg, you've met me, I am much much shorter than DJ hehehe
I'm only 5'5".

Mooty, it's all your fault

Btw I'm sorry for the late reply guys... I just got home from Monterey. We went to the Concorso Italiano (www.concorso.com) and I'll try to post some pics tonight
