Got Recaro seats in my SVT. Lowers the seating position by 2 inches! Very comfy and the bracket is top-notch. The bracket replaces the power functions and bolts directly to the floor. Unless a bracket does this, odds are you will lose headroom.

If you want pics, let me know. I know 93SVTCobra sells the seats.

I really like the SVT seats, much better than the 95SE seats imho. I'm going to have mine refinished with a combination of a higher quality black leather with seude inserts (ala IS300) along with seat heaters in the near future.

I get more praise on my seats then my car. All SVT owners even love my seats. They rock!

I hated my '95 SE's seats. I prefer the SVT's seats better. For what it's worth.

What color are they? I might buy yours for spare in case I ever break mine! I'd choose the '95 SE seats over any year CSVT seats anytime.

Huh, 600$(I am guessing US) is alot of money for sparco torinos. A speed shop in montreal had some black ones for 782$ canadian...

BTW, what the hell are sparco stars? Never seen those...
