As I am customizing my project car I am going to put better seats in it. I have seen S2000 seats in a teener and they looked good but the owner said it was a tight fit. I see all types of aftermarket seats on ebay in the $300-$500 range after shipping but will they sit too high?
914 seats are very low to the floor and being 5'11" I don't want to look at the windshield frame when I drive.
Who else has put something else in a 914 and how do they work?
Posted by: Chuck Jan 22 2008, 07:52 PM
I picked up some Sparcos from my brother but decided, after test fitting them, that they sat too high and took up too much space. Now I'm considering: 1) just recovering my seats; 2) turning my seats into sport seats with some tubing and fiberglass and then having an upholstery shop recover them; or 3) buying a set of GTS seats that will fit the backpad.

Hi Dan, those are nice seats (Black Corbeau's). That is kind of the look I want for my car, they bolt right in? And are nice and low like stock? Are they still available? Wonder where I could buy some. Thanks

Dan,
Are these legal per the rules? I thought the seats had to have provisions for the belts...

(I am using a Kirkey seat. Absolutely no problem with height, actually, I had to build the bracket to get the seat high enough!)
When I get home, I will take some pictures if the light is good enough.
Posted by: Dan (Almaden Valley) Jan 22 2008, 09:48 PM
I could probably get them to pass if I had the seat bottom reupholstered with a sub strap hole or went to 6 point harnesses, since the shoulder harnesses are held over my shoulders by the head rest posts....but I don't care...
I am not going to be doing any TTs this year with the car. I will just DE with some other Norcal groups. I am an instructor with TMR so I might do some events with them or CDS.
I refuse to run 3 point belts in a 914 on the track, so I am boycotting my own series this year...more of a statement to PCA National. 
I am concentrating on AX this season...attempting to put my little Puttputt into the top 10 this year, on a regular basis.
I like the seats since they look very period correct...I am going to be removing the backpad and rubber mat, and carpet with Perlon.

I am 5'8", and I can't imagine that I am the shortest 914 driver here, but I feel like a midget (er - small person) when I adjust the seats in both my 914 and my 911. I can barely squeeze into the 911 when my seat is adjusted to the point that I need it to comfortably drive, and in the 914, I hate the look of a big gap between my seat and the backpad. Anyone else have this problem, and is there a seat that will put me closer to the pedals without making me feel like I should be singing the lollypop guild song? I have given serious thought to modifying the pedals on the 914, but pride has stood in the way.

Dan,
I was under the impression that the Corbeau Classic IIs sat a bit higher than the stock seats. Also, how well do they fit the backpad? Do you perhaps have a photo?
The Corbeau Classic IIs seem to me to have slightly better lateral support in the upper back than say the Le Mans GT seats. I sat in a demo Le Mans GT seat at the Porsche Auto Fest in Ventura last year and frankly found it to be a bit lacking in lateral support other than in the butt. They are also about double the price of the Corbeau.

I have the Corbeau Classic II's and really like them a lot. Andy is right, they do sit higher than the stock seats. It was something I noticed as soon as I sat in them the first time.
Posted by: mudfoot76 Jan 23 2008, 12:31 PM
I just removed two Classic IIs from my car in favor of the Forzas because my PCA chapter would no longer pass me on tech inspection w/o the pass through for anti-sub belt. I was told I could not modify the lower cushion. My car does not have a back pad. They do sit higher than stock seats, but are quite comfortable. I'm 6'0" and my car has a formulring (sp?) steering wheel that is smaller diameter than stock. I imagine that a stock steering wheel will make for a tight fit with the Classic IIs.
I'll be offering the seats for sale very soon (look for an FS post in the classifieds) in case any of you are interested.
Posted by: stateofidleness Jan 23 2008, 01:00 PM
yea im 6'1" with stock seats and i STILL have to move my seat pretty far forward to be able to push the pedals all the way down...
sport seats would be cool, but seats are pricey!

There are a ton of seats on Ebay but the trick is to get some low enough to the floor and narrow enough to fit into the car.
The Trendgear ones say they are only 17" wide so thats a good start.
In my daily driver I custom made this seat in this post. It's really pretty good but I don't feel like doing 2 more of them.

So let me get this straight... you can't use the seat b/c the sub belt is not close enough to your nuts??? Is this any different than a stock 914 seat..
Posted by: PRS914-6 Jan 23 2008, 11:03 PM
I used GTS Classics Nurburgring seats with 911 ball bearing sliders. Had seat heaters installed when they were made.
Posted by: bigkensteele Jan 24 2008, 12:45 AM
Those look great! How tall are you? As I mentioned previously, I am 5'8", and when you open the door on my car, it looks like the seat is set for my 5 year old. I have been to Germany, and I didn't feel very short among the poeple there, but I do whenever I adjust the seat in a German car.

To recap from PCA.org --->
Harness Systems: If the participant chooses to install a 5 or 6 point driving harness ( four point systems are not safe and therefore not allowed) several changes to the automobile must be made to create a safe occupant restraint system. Harnesses must include a antisubmarine strap and be mounted in an approved manner consistent the manufacturer’s instructions. The Harness system must be used in conjunction with a seat which has the supplied routing holes for the shoulder and anti-submarine belts. All pieces of the restraint system must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
This means that a seat is required to have the proper routing holes for the harness as supplied by the seat manufacturer for the shoulder and anti-submarine straps. The shoulder straps should be mounted at 90 degrees to the axis of your spine or at most 40 degrees down from horizontal. Because the addition of the harness system means that the occupants are fastened upright in the vehicle, a properly padded roll bar or roll cage is strongly encouraged to complete the SYSTEM. The use of one without the other may result in an unsafe environment and is not a COMPLETE SYSTEM. Due to UV degradation and wear the harness webbing must be replaced every five years.
This is listed under the http://www.pca.org/drivers_ed/standards.html and is why I am replacing the old seats.
Posted by: PRS914-6 Jan 24 2008, 09:50 AM
Ken, I'm 5'8" (barely) as well. I went through considerable effort to lower the seats as low as possible with custom made brackets and the 911 sliders. Even with that, they are just a tad too high but not bad for my height.

Craig C. Laughlin
Craig,
Your site says these fit the stock back pad. I'm 6' 4" so that extra 1/2" of seat travel means a lot. Does the the LeMans sit any higher than stock? That extra 1/2" of head room also means a lot for us tall guys.
Posted by: boxstr Jan 24 2008, 10:38 AM
Peter The LeMans seat does fit the backpad, and it does travel all the way back into the recessed area. At 6'4" yes the LeMans may be a little tall for you. The reason being the way the seats mount in the 914. You have the mount that angles up and down , then you have the slider assembly, that the seat moves forward and backward on.
Both of these add height to the seat when installed.
How do you fit in a stock 914 seat, with the bottom pad in place??
Craig C. Laughlin
Posted by: Mike914 Jan 24 2008, 11:43 AM
Those intersted in the Corbeau Classic II's should be aware that you can order them with a sub strap hole from the factory. Oh yeah, as a daily driver, the vinyl does not hold up (see the gaffer's tape below) and the color fades pretty quickly, plus the foam in the lumbar region compresses pretty quickly. Once the foam compresses, you can feel a crossbar at the rear that hits me right in the coccyx. Also the seat rails need to be filed out to fit larger bolts that are offset slightly from the stock locations.
Posted by: andys Jan 24 2008, 12:01 PM
I called Corbeau in order to get the scoop on seat heights, as the 914 is very limited in what fits well. Most aftermarket seats appear to place the driver too high. When mounted to the stock seat rails, the Classic II has about the shortest bottom cushion and mounting surface. The next slightly higher is their A4. The Forza is the next step higher after the A4. Apparently Corbeau can "shave" the bottoms to make the driver sit lower, but still not quite as low as the stock 914 seat.
I looked at the seats in my friends S2000. They sure look like the bottom of the seat is very thin, and sits relative to the floor about the same as a 914. Anyone try a mock fit of these seats in a 914?
Andys
Posted by: Todd Enlund Jan 24 2008, 01:04 PM
had Corbeau Forzas but the sit up too high
Dan,
Were they mounted to the rails, or bolted to the floor? I'm okay with bolting seats directly to the floor... as long as it fits me... proper reinforcement, of course...
Posted by: jasons Jan 24 2008, 02:05 PM
I've got the Renegades, built from 914 cores. They have submarine holes, but I don't know if they would be legal, because the seat shell is just cut for the hole in the cushion?
I had a forza in my car long enough to get rid of it. Its probably good for a track only car, but it was too tight and too hard to get in and out of for me. Not much on comfort either. The Renegades are hard enough to get in and out of.
Posted by: boxstr Jan 24 2008, 02:27 PM
Please take note. The GTS seats are in no way like the 914 stock seat or the Corbeau seats, or any other seat on the market at this time.
The GTS seats are built like a piece of fine furniture. I have taken one of these seats completely apart to inspect how they were made.
I have owned the Corbeau seat, and it is fine for the money. But if you want to buy just one seat and be comfortable, you cannot beat the GTS seats.

Posted by: ConeDodger Jan 24 2008, 08:01 PM
FWIW, I have ridden in Paul's car with the GTS heated seats. (More like low altitude flight but I digress) They look so natural they could have been stock. They were the most comfortable I have sat in as far as a 914 is concerned. When he turned on he heat it pretty much negated the need for heat from the heat exchangers.
These are great seats. I do not think they would be legal for PCA DE without a "factory" sub strap hole. Which I don't think they would have a problem with if they didn't mind Paul's heater elements.

If they will put Paul's heated seat elements into them, I am sure they would do Houndstooth. Seriously comfortable seating. They even have a device called a Trip device named after a famous racer Von Trip I believe... This thing corrects the shoulder harness angle and should make them legal for PCA-DE as the other requirements for through the seat on the sub and lap is an option too...

AT 6' 4" the stock seat is no real problem. The top of my head is pretty close to the top, but I just duck if I see a big bump coming up. I like the look of the LeMans seat, but don't think I can sacrafice any head room. I just sunk a lot of money into a new engine, so it will be a while until I can spend again.

Posted by: E-Man Feb 1 2008, 12:16 PM
I found a pair of Recaros out of an early 80's BMW 320iS, cut off the seat belt holders (made seat too wide), and drilled them for standard 914 rails.
Downside:
They're a bit wide but I can still use the hand brake (tight), heavy (~50lbs), and are slightly higher than stock (~1").
Upside:
Side bolsters are high, they have adjustable thigh supports and headrests, and tip forward to access behind the seat. I'm using five point harnesses but stock 3-points could be used. Also, I removed the backpad to fit the harness attachments but it will fit unless you have long legs and need/like the seat all the way back.
Extremely comfortable, strong seat that can be found for under $400/pr.
Just another option.

I never considered Fiero seats. We have a recycler here that has about 30 Fieros in his field. If I can scoop a set of leather seats for a good price they might be worth a try.

I have the Forza in my car now. Its not very comfortable for the street. Does the lemans seat have the same butt width as the Forza or is the Nurburgring seat a closer comparison? I noticed there web site says the Lemans has 12.2" of butt space versus the Nurburgring has 13.4" of butt space. I also had the Konig seat in the past and it was to tight in the butt area, but it fit into the back pad.

Craig,
If one is close to Camp, can one "test drive" GTS seats, and as such do you keep a supply in stock so that this might happen. I ask cause you are only a few hours away and ..why not good reason to see Oregon, and another teener. I am thinking, we can order these with specific materials and patterns, correct? Whats delivery/build time work out to?
Related, kinda. Has anyone ever seen a deep silver, metalic car with red doors and seats? Really thinkin about this. Trying to work the scheme out.

I've been driving my 914 with the stock seat with the seat cushions out for some time now. I find it just as or more comfortable than with the seat covers in. Has anybody else noticed this anomaly?
Because of this, I'm favorable towards 356 GT seats.

Posted by: GTS Mar 16 2008, 02:19 AM
Hi All,
The height is always a problem for the 914 seats, we have redesigned the LeMans seat 3 times to get it lower and lower into the car, but the original mountings are the problem as the cross tube is the hindering objet to get lower.Unless you take the mountings out use sliders or a fixed position that's when you get real low.
As we are now making these seats in the uS we have the LeMand that bolts right to the original slider and back padding, but also the Rallye, Avus, Sebring and TransAm mount to these as well-only the original back padding is a bit in the way.
Another feature are now the built in guidance for the seat belts in all seats as well as the Trips device to rout the shoulder harness as required by the PCA.
Last I have not yet tried the Monte Carlo but I will do that with my 914 and let you know.

Wimberley?? Wimberley?? Really? How is it that I live 20 minutes from you, and I did not know that.... Do you keep any seats there, or are they all in a warehouse in cali? I'd love to set a pair of the Monte Carlo's in my car to see what they look like. I'd even post pictures
