Sparco seats Who has em??

Are they comfortable? Is there still enough legroom?
I was looking at a set of Torino's. Where is the best place to buy them?

Personally, I don't think you'll find many seats better overall than the Turinos.

I have a set of torinos. Im going to modify the brackets, they sit higher then the stock seats and feel a little akward. But otherwise they are very comfortable and hold very nicley. You dont get thrown out of your seats while cornering.

Personally, I'd take Turinos any day over Recaros. They hold you in more snug, and look better in my opinion. Nothing wrong with Recaros, of course.

My torinos are the best....

Recaros are played out too much becuase they are in Integras....apart from that...you want a real seat?

Sparco, Bride, OMP, Lear, etc ...they are the brands....

I have the Sparco Torino on the passenger side and the Sparco Star on the driver side. It just that the Torino is a little tight for me and the Star is a bigger than the Torino and I feel more comfortable in the Sparco Star than the Torino, they both look same except the Sparco star is just a little bit bigger...there for, it's more comfortible (I'm not fat or anything..I'm 5-7, 150lbs). Plus I think it's cool how I have 2 different kind of seats in my car...it's like a custom look you know. I don't know how DYI01 brakets are but mine is low..I feel like I'm squatting on the floor of my car. Here are some pics of my seats.

Thanks for the pics! They look awsome!

What color do you think would look good in a White Diamond Pearl Prelude?

Drew! for your car..definately black, I love the way they feel man..big difference compared to stock seats..much tighter and lower, and just knowing that you have the word Sparco behind your head makes it alot more comfortable..lol.
