Recaro SPG = best seat ever.

If you are going to fit a rollcage, make sure you have head protection on the seat.

Autosport extreme carbon / kevlar race seat would be my choice, as it suits a Nissan and has head protection -

It's not on their website, so might be a special order item.

If he's going to be using it for track stuff I'm sure he doesn't want a reclinable seat on sliders.

Has anyone tried the sparco fighter seat?

I was looking at that too. I understand OMP is good value compared to Sparco, Momo and many of the other major brands. I tried finding Canadian Dealers but haven't had much luck...then again, I haven't really tried that hard.

Drivers Edge is an OMP dealer here in Burnaby.

But I've sat in a few of thier seats, they are nice.. but no where near the comfort of a recaro. They don't hug your midsection as well as recaro, and I tried many seats.

Look into MemoryFab seats. They're SUPER nice, buckets, carbon FRP and FIA approved.

I'm not sure but a good portion of the Bride seats aren't in fact FIA approved.
I know of a couple guys who had to switch out their Bride racing seats for Recaros because of the FIA approvals.

There is a good Canadian dealer of FIA approved seats in Georgetown, Ontario called Four Star Motorsports

FIA cert for race use is only good for 2 years iirc, so unless you're going to race it right away it really doesnt matter what kind of seat you're using. And i think BRIDE only has 1 FIA approved racing seat.

edit: i just checked and apparently..
5 years, and after that you have to have a seat back brace but can still keep using it.

If you're racing, a seat back brace is required from the get-go.

I did some searching and couldn't find out either. I don't think they are or the info would be easier to find.

I just did a quick search and found this. Should help people find FIA approved racing seats.
