Bride + low mount rail = epic win.

I look like a little kid sitting in my car with a Bride Brix (recliner) and superlow rail in there, but theres so much head room even with a helmet on. Also, being a drift orientated seat, they are designed to hold you in place during crazy transitions, nothing short of rolling the car will see you move in the seat (my leg didn't even hit the trans tunnel when I crashed, and I was doing at least 50 kays backwards when I hit :))

Only bad thing about my Bride is it's a right pain in the arse to get in and out of, the side bolsters are so goddam high :P

as for helmets.........in a car, $50 (open face) at Hyperformance Cycles............on a bike, consider spending up to 10 times that amount

Face face might be better in the event of a crash, but if you're tight for $, then an open face will do for now.

Peter Stevens in the city have a huge range of lids.

If you're after a race seat, will you also need a harness?

Nah, coz I only want to get a racing seat just for the fact that i'll able to mount it lower and give me a bit more head room.

But I was just thinking, Does anyone know if it's possible to put 34gtr seats in a 32? Spose i'd have to get different rails....

I got a pair of brand new Velo's for my car. They're on Jacobson Crst. Holden hill. They have every seat they make available for testing in the showroom.

They're also ADR approved, my car went through regency with them without a problem. They also do ADR approved harnesses.

Not sure on retail. The guys there are good mates. If you tell Adrian that Kevin sent you, he might look after you, or charge you more for knowing a knob like me :(

And cheers, I need someone to buy it though :(
