Am a new RX8 owner and was wondering if anyone has upgraded their fabric seats? Am planning to replace my front seats and am looking for a good upgrade. Something with more padding and support in the seat.
Thanks!

 

some Sparco Racing seats are nice.

 

Search.

 

 

There are a few racing seats available for the rx8. Anyway, the oem seats looks and feels like a racing seats to me already. I don't need to replace it with an aftermarket ones. Just search and you'll find what your looking for, good luck.

 

you don't find stockers to have insufficient bolstering? when hard cornering I often wish I had some more lateral support.

that said tho for a DD the stock seats do the job and look pretty damn nice.

 

searching is your friend. but i did it for you anyway....

If you are just looking to stay in your seat better during cornering loads the the way to go would be a CG lock. They should be able to keep you in your seat nicely.

If you are looking for new seats you have three choices for mounting, spend a bunch of money for a shop to build seat mounts, custom fab your own seat mounts or be prepared to pay a good amount of money and time for a bolt in bottom mount from Sparco, Bride or Mazdaspeed. Remember these seat mounts take a Huge load on them I would highly advise against the "one for all tabbed type mounts" or any back yard solutions.

Like my grand father always said, do it once and do it right. If a mount fails it could be you or your passengers life.
