What seats fit and are cheap?
I've got a $1000 craigslist special miata. I don't like spending money on it. I basically bought it to be a drift missle and track *****. It's been pretty good at that but my upper back is getting ruined because the stock NA seats ******* SUCK.
What can I throw in on the cheap that has some semblance of lateral support?
Oh, 5'11" and 140lbs, so tiny seats are a bonus. Does anyone know if 240SX seats fit? They're **** too but if they fit it means that R32 GTR seats fit, and I can get one of those cheap as hell.
I am considering making a rollbar so I can put in a 5 point harness too, I keep thinking about how much I don't want my head to get squished if I manage to roll this thing while driving sideways at 70mph, and I'm sure that 5pt harness + no rollbar = certain death.

I got a set of cheap Recaros, used. Pretty sure they're the Pole Positions.

I have these in 16''. It's a good race bucket for the price. I DD'd them for a while and hated life. They are in the attic now.

And you need a atleast a 5 point if you get a rollbar, because chances are the stock seatbelts wont work worth a ****.
EDIT: I'm 6'2 190lbs. And I got a fat *** like my momma. 16'' is snug.

I have the 15" kirkey intermediate road race seats in both my dad's 99 and my 91 for track days. They work awesome for track but suck as DD seats. I tried it for work and have to say there is no gracefull way of getting out of these seats unless the top is open. Not a DD seat, but they fit.

Most of the FIA seats I fit in are fairly comfortable once I actually get inside them. It's the ingress and egress that causes the problems.

I have Momo Super Cups in my car and they are pretty comfy. I drove them 500 miles without any problems. Braineack even said they were comfortable. I picked them up used for cheap and they use the stock sliders. I also know Momo Starts are reasonably cheap and fit.
