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! |

Can you use side mount brackets on that seat? That's what I used to lay the seat back. Made it a million times more comfortable, otherwise it felt like the seat was leaning me forward. I have a sparco pro2000 mounted with the sparco side mount brackets and a wedge engineering floor bracket. I'm 5'10" and have plenty of room with my helmet on, and I have the ability to lower the seat more with the side mounts. I also have a slider to sandwich in between the mounts but so far I don't see the need for a slider since my car isn't a DD.

I don't believe this can accept side mounts...at least not in factory form lol. Can always make it into a side mount system with a little fabrication. I talked with a guy at work and cooked up another mount system. To be continued. |
