Sparco Torino Seats

Hi

Some guy is selling brand new from Sparco Torino seats for $200 Canadian each. That is more than 1/2 the US price!

I don't really want to loose my seat warmers but are these good seats? Better than standard WRX seats?

Can I just use my normal seat belts?

Thanks for any opinions!

So everybody wants a set!

Are they better than the WRX seats?
Can I run my standard seat belts?
I am not putting a stud in the back seats of my car to anchor a harness, that’s how they work right?
Can some one post the 411 on how these seats mount and how 5 point and 4 point harness mount and if I can use my OEM seat belts (There is a large shoulder molding that might not allow the seat belts to work right). : )
Any body running a set in there WRX? : D

Right now all I know is my girl friend was talking to a guy at her work whos uncle is opening a shop and in order to get Sparco distro approved he has to order $x.xx of Sparco gear so he is trying to just blow out all these seats in one shot.

I will get back to each of you when I get the dirt and the real contact!

They are adjustable is that good or bad?

I am more interested in the Corsa but don't know how they will be in a daily driver!

well i don't hav a rex or torinos but i hav sat in them and i find them comfortable, and as far as race style seats go they r very nice because they are adjustable so u get the support of a race seat with the flexability of your stock seat. i'm pretty sure u can still use yur seat belts with these seats. now i don't know a lot about harnesses but i think the bolt in the floor is wut is usually done, but at vividracing.com they hav a harness bar that fits wrx and wraps around the back of the front seats. it claims to b a bolt on and allows harnesses while not affecting the cars people moving abilities. also if true is a plus that it will stiffen cornering. so my biggest recommendation is find a torino and sit in it, find out how high u'll sit in the car and all of that complies with wut u need.
