On the bimarco seats how long is the fia cert. Good for, 5 years? I'm 5'10'' 33 waist. My goal this winter is for seats, harnesses and hans. I sit fairly far back and reclined now in OEM seats. Sounds like maybe the futura is a better fit?

It was listed at $764 for a long time. Then I saw that he had dropped it to $688. I missed out on a Recaro pro racer SPG XL and decided to just bite the bullet.
Nice find! I love hunting for stuff on eBay. Almost got a Hans last night for 400$ but someone outbid me at like second 3 before it ended

when you guys got your bimarco seats were the fia dates current, as you didnt receive some shelf seats with per say 2 year old dates.

Sparco Pro ADV.

I solid mounted it using some 3/16" mild steel stock from Lowes. Vice/Hammer/pipe wrench to bend brackets to fit. I have never felt a more solid seat mount.

What size waist? I think it would be uncomfortable for anyone over a 36" waist.
