    Default What bucket seats are good for a drift car?

    What seats do you all go for? I dont want something that's gonna break my back. Roughly how much and where sells them? Looking for a pair of them.
    I was looking at the cobra Monaco pro steel frame seat but thinking the steel frame may be hard to sit in as there wouldn't be as much flexibility as the likes of a fibreglass one?
    So looked at the omp champ fibreglass, sparco evo fibreglass, sparco pro 2000 fibreglass, sparco rev plus fibreglass and omp ars fibreglass.
    Fibre glass ones are ranging from £285 to about £370 each
    Or even the drift works ultimate bucket seat imola edition for about £630 for a pair.

    I already have a new set of 6 point 3" inch TRS harnesses so seats need to allow for 6 point.

    I'm just not sure which to go for so wots recommended?

    Get anything cheap and cheerful if it's fia approved then you can't go wrong even if it's out of date, it will get filthy no matter how hard you try to keep it clean, loads of lads have decent ones on here to sell

    Lads be carefull buying out of date seats ,I have seen old seats break in a crash.Anyway as rules and regs develop in a series you could find urself sitting in the paddock not allowed to enter an event.
