Looking at Corbeau Forza, Forza Sport and F1X Pro. They all look pretty similar to me and without being able to sit in all o them the decision is kind of tricky. I've heard overall good things about the Forza.


Anyone running either of these? They are going in a 95 Camaro for Autocross but is also a DD that sees the occasional 2hr one way trip to the in-laws house in Columbus OH from Cincy Oh. Everything else is around town driving. Will be making my own seat brackets.


Thanks guys!

I'll double-check, but IIRC, the bracket we have just bolts to the side of the seat at the bottom. Two bolts at each end on each side near the corners. I don't know if the holes were pre-drilled, or the PO drilled them, though.

Thanks

IMO, the tube frame seats are akin to lawn chairs. They will not pass NASA race tech. I recommend a fiberglass shell seat.

It seems you are big into Road Racing...being that I will only see local/regional autocross, do you think there will be issues? Next step is a 4pt harness using OEM lower lap belt points then to find mount points for shoulder straps. I have heard that there are no shoulder strap angle regulations for simple autocross like there are for road racing. Local autocross member mentioned removing the rear seat and using OEM rear seatbelt lower mount points. I WAS going to look into making a Gen4Racing style harness bar.

A friend of mine highly recommended the Forza that he runs in the same autocross events in his C5 and 02 Camaro.

That will be up to your local tech staff, I doubt that they would care for autox, but you might check with them. The harness angles are important in a crash. While autox crashes do happen they are not common. If you drive it on the street with wrong harness angles you'll be at risk. If the OEM 3pt works with the seat you may keep them in place for street use.
