I have always wanted a rx7 but never got one because i wanted to put some good work and money into it but didnt have the time/money, now i have one and would like to take it to the track every now and then for drift or autox, but still have it as my DD. My interior is in great shape except for the drivers seat. I am basically a beginner so would probably have a passenger for coaching some of the time, so def need to get two seats as well as for the total weight savings. I will be getting a roll bar for the vert as well.

I kind of have some specific criteria maybe someone could point me towards the best choice based on their experience

here is my criteria

-must be SUPER COMFY as I take some serious road trips ( 24 hours)

-I actually wouldn't mind being up a little higher than the stock seat i know a lot of buckets will sit u considerably lower, I am pretty sure i could still fit a helmet being up higher than stock sits. would this be a bracket thing?

-must be light as possible as its a vert, I am not against a steel tubed seat if its under 20lbs but probably looking for frp i feel like it would be comfier anyway

-entry level price, pretty much gotta be under $400 a seat

-fits a 31" waist

-fits in the fc vert!

-LOOKS NICE with good quality

I am actually quite interested in the polish bimarco seats as they are very affordable, lightweight, customizable, and FIA certified however I am not crazy about the name 'bimarco' lol and I noticed they don't reinforce the typical fabric tear spots like some of the better brands do. I would probably have a custom embroidered mazda logo or 'savanna rx7' up at the top instead of the cheesy bimarco logo. any experience with these affordable seats?

even if i dont track the car that often at all im still keen on upgrading safety as i plan on having this car for many, many years and would like to stay alive driving it. I know there aren't THAT many options with the specific criteria i mentioned but hopefully i can get some insight....

 

would these scuffs cause this sabelt seat to be out of fia homologation?
