Thread: GTS Nurburgring/LeMans Seat?

    GTS Nurburgring/LeMans Seat?

    I was looking for input on these two seats since I'm in need of new ones due to my stock seats being broken down pretty badly. I know there are any number of custom setups in terms of mounting and bolstering but who has used them and what do you think of them? I'm 6'4" with a 36" inseam so thats a concern in choosing an aftermarket seat. They would be going into a driver and not a car that is tracked. I'd love to see as many pictures of them installed as I can (already raided the "Show Me Your Seats" thread) and possible color/material combinations (going into an Albert Blue '71 T). Any input would be appreciated. Thanks,

    Stretch

    Stretch, I strongly recommend finding someone with the seats you are looking at and testing them out.

    Hi Stretch,when I look at your personal data, please forget the LeMans, it is too narrow build to fit the 914 back pad and will not be comfortable for you.The Nurburgring is an all round fitting seat....but.My suggestion it is too low for you in the back and the headrest would not be at the right height for you.My recommendation would be the Avus, the seat sits low in the car, the seating posoition can even be lowered and it has the look of the Nurburgring.Just higher in the side suppport, wider in the seating and higher in the back so the headrest are more up to the task.

    Thanks for all the input and sorry for the delay in replying. I'll probably go with the Avus as suggested. I really like the smaller minimalist look of the Nurburgring but if it won't fit me then its out. With that being said does anybody have any pics of the Avus installed? Thanks again,

    Stretch
