Team Raceworx have obtained some great prices on OBX seats.

Full details are on this webpage:
http://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/raceworx/obx.htm

Prices are from $460 per pair which is about half what you would pay elsewhere! With the money you save you can get BRIDE embriodered on them

Please note seats are sold in pairs only, but if 2 ppl agree on the same seat and colour I can organise that.

Also note the seats do not come with rails, you should allow up to about $200 to buy new ones or have your factory rails modified.

Please post interest in this thread.

Is that per/rail or for the pair?

yeah I should have been cleared, $200 ea.

So if you go fixed back, you could have 2 news seats, installed from about $1k.

The other option is to go halves with someone else who is interested, if anyone just wants one seat post up here and we will try and match it up.

Are they approved for CAMS events etc? (Scuze my ignorance).

Also where would you get the rails from?

Is there any chance of having a look at the seats? (either through another seller or somewhere that may stock them)
?

Thanks - they look great too!

Yep, they are CAMS legal if mounted correctly, we have used them in NSW circuit racing and Targa Tas.

As for rails, there's a couple of choices.

INASNT has a group buy going for rail, these seats should be able to bolt on. Alternatively I know Powerplay in Drummoyne sell Bride rails which bolt straight in. Third choice would be to get a workshop to have a look at reusing your standard rails.

Having a look at them, I have the Forza in my race car, and we also had a couple of people buy the Daytona. Apart from that we don't have a any of the other models to have a look at.

Yes i do, check my signature.

They are bride copies (From my original bride rails) and they are not just the rails but the whole seat frame with the drivers side belt buckle which bolts directly to the skyline floor plan, then they you just to slight modifications to to bolt the seat down.

Register your interest in my thread as the first few are getting made today so i can finially put my recaros in.

Nozila, the fixed seats can be a pretty firm fit...great for spirited driving but it might be inconvenient day to day...just depends how much you want a good tight seat biggrin.gif
