A bucket seat
A bucket seat
So I've been thinking about getting a more supportive seat lately, I found this

I'm thinking about either those or sparco torinos....I didn't even know seibon made seats. Does anyone have any thoughts or experiences with these?

i see your on coilovers too.
racing seats and coilovers can get pretty painfull if your in the car for more than an hour.
ive got a bad back and it starts acting up after about 30 mins.

ive got the torinos and coilovers and it hurts.
idk, but personally i feel like there isnt enough support for my mid back, im sure everyone would be diff. though.
the fighters look like they might be better because they have those support pieces where your mid back is.
thats a total guess though seeing as ive never sat in one.

maybe this version http://www.seiboncarbon.com/pdut_det...asp?ItemID=624 would be more comfortable?
The trade off is that when you go into a corner hard, it grips you so nice. Sitting in traffic you feel like your sitting on a curb, and you'll get "hot butt" sometimes. But as with anything... you gotta give to get.

With the seats in the first pic, you can kiss your back seats good bye.
Like everyone else said, don't expect to be comfortable for long. If you want something with more supportive bolsters, look into getting some Evo or SRT4 front seats. I've sat in an Evo for an extended period of time and was fine the whole ride, and I used to have an SRT4 passenger seat in my living room.

Another alternative would be Corbeau's.
Although, I'd like to add a note that the 36" waist is kind of pushing it. I have a 33" waist and I was snug in these seats.
The acclaimed Corbeau CR1 provides drivers of all kinds with the latest in looks, comfort, durability and style.
Standard features include: high-density injection molded foam, ergonomical design, harness belt capability, integrated shoulder, kidney and thigh support, leatherette high wear patches, and a fully adjustable seat back with a flip forward fingertip controlled lever for rear access.
The Corbeau CR1 is extra aggressive in the kidney area and will fit up to a 36" waist.
