hiten55 Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Does anyone have these seats fitted,and did they come with sub frames?If so where did you get them from? trig has them in his. i had a set in my old car too - i think they are 700's, iirc the 500's were buckets. there was a place in canvey island called evolution who were sole distrubutors, but they closed down a few years ago (shame as they were really good, just didnt know how to pay rent lol). no idea where to get em from now though. best seats i sat in too. i tried loads and eventually picked these. had the bucket too...

bmx1lew Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 (edited) what about Yonaka seats there really good and look great im waiting back on my shipping quote. I am either getting the Yonaka-Ronin Synthetic Leather Racing Seats at a sale price of £125 for a pair!!! they are made in Canada however if you want the same set from england it is £500 a pair... and the factory is willing to ship direct to me at the shop sale price! I'm still waiting to hear about shipping though it will be allot but should still work out cheaper then buying in the uk.. http://www.maximumvelocitymotorsports.com/store/images/uploads/big_ronin_synleather.jpg leather is £250 a pair http://www.maximumvelocitymotorsports.com/store/images/uploads/big_ronin_leather.jpg or The Yonaka Katana Suede in Black which i really like they are £200 a pair http://www.maximumvelocitymotorsports.com/store/images/uploads/big_katana.jpg http://www.funkypower.co.uk/images/INTERIOR%20STYLING/SEATS%20ACCESSORIES/SEATS/katanasuede_small.gif here's the site where i found them, if you phone them speak to Cassandra she is the most helpfull person i have ever spoke to, She is the car mapper and was telling me loads about Haltech engine management system, she really knows her stuff... however she really did have a hard time understanding me as i have a geordie accent. http://www.maximumvelocitymotorsports.com/store/accessories/racing-seats-yonaka/cat_143.html Lew.
