Default Recaro Seat Question

I am disassembling my '97 C2S and hope to purchase a GT-3 in the future. I have Recaro Speed seats in the C2S and want to know if they are a good application for the GT-3. I have been advised that different seat rails will be required.

Yes Ron, the mounting position of the seats is different. Some different sliders for the GT3. Come on Ron, the leather GT3 seats are the cool upgrade for these cars....

Aren't they a fixed-back seat? I usually prefer a slight recline for road driving, more upright on the track.

I am currently in the "securing information" stage of a GT-3 purchase, as I am disassembling my 993 C2S and have yet to sell it. If the Recaro Speed's are not the way to go, I will sell them, no problem.

The Euro GT3 seat back angle is fixed, the US spec GT3 sport seat, seat back angle is adjustable.
