Corbeau Forza seats.
Does anyone have any experience with the Corbeau Forza Seats?
I wanted to pick up a pair of them. I kinda realized it was silly to buy a reclinable seat if you can barely recline the stock seats. The Forza seems like a good buy? http://www.racingseatsonline.com/images/c29105.jpg I would like to get the black ones tho :bowdown: |
I like mine alot, but unfortunately the wear patch on the drivers side did just that.... it's all ripped from me getting in and out, looks like shit
|
That wear patch problem is a common accurance with those corbeaus when i was researching seats. Everyone says that patch wears out fast.
|
Looks pretty nice in the car
http://car.blogs.com/photos/uncatego..._forza_8x6.jpg Yea I figured the seats would wear out there, if you think about it its not like you plop down you kind of need a 'hand' in. |
I have the Clubmans, I like them a lot. The wings would be a little uncomfortable for me and I barely fit in the Clubmans, but that's a feature :) .
I also got the Corbeau brackets for Miata, which I had to modify to fit... i.e. Grind, test, grind, test, grind, test. I also got a snap-off steering wheel system because the extra bolstering on the sport seats make getting in and out a huge ordeal. Come to find, a smaller diameter steering wheel did the trick but having the snap off makes it that much more secure for me.... even though the car is garaged. |
Firedog, would you be able to take a picture of the clubmans in your car?

Personally i make sure i take a towel with me on hot dates for other reasons. Beats the hell out of wiping off on your seats.

I like the momo starts and he sparco speeds, they're all in the same class it seems. Savington seems to really like his momo starts.

Girls wear panties?

i have a pair of forza seats. i like them, they work for me, and the price was right. however, i must say i would probably look into something a bit more narrower if i were to do it again. excessive width causes too much rubbing on door panel.
|
they're a motherfucker to climb in and out of. I would not put them in my daily.
|
Has anyone sat in all 3 (speed, start and forza)? Which would be the most comfortable for long distance driving.
|
anyone know of any wide version seats that have been verified to fit in the miata? I need one for me, I can just stick a standard one in the passenger space.
|
if anyone needs a drivers side corbeau mounting bracket him me up... mike at developer10 dizz0t com
|
the wings hit the door sill, so if you're tall they don't go all the way back
|
I just installed a pair in a Friends NB. Make sure you have a BFH present if you are using a stock seatbelt setup, the brackets make it a pain in the ass.

I had the clubmans originally but sold those to get the Forza's. They fit much better imo, except that I can't recline or scoot my seat back since the top of the seat hits my rollbar. I'll eventually get a smaller steering wheel to accompany my lanky legs but I'm too lazy right now.
|
My ass is too wide for the Forza. I have one that’s never been sat in; I attempted to sit in it, but no dice. I consider it incentive to lose weight :ugh2:
|
haha...the forza two is known to fit in the miata and to house a bigger ass...
i have the forza one...review: more comfortable on longer drives, a little bit harder to get in and out, not much...fit good, does not rub the door panel, but i dont know how it would work with the hard top mounting brackets if they were present...overall, great seat for the money, i got mine for $220 with rail through a friend here locally, but he no longer works at the same place, so no more discounts...Gl looking around, ask for discount wherever you shop, you just may get it |
anyone have any idea on the fit for tallish people? I'm 5'11" and am looking to not crack my head on my roll bar in the event of a rear-end collision. Might go into HPDE and I want to be able to pass with a helmet.
I was looking for a side-mount seat, but these popped up on CL for a decent price/pair and I'm thinking about pulling the trigger. |
