Megan Racing or Corbeau A4 Seats

Im currently on a budget and am trying to get some racing seats. The two seats that are in my price range are the Megan Racing Seats and the Corbeau A4 seats. Both Look just as good, but I would like to know your opinion before I go out and buy $800 for two seats and two brackets. Remember Im on a budget so sparco and recaros are just out of the Question.

Sparco does have cheaper seats. Also check out Summit and Jegs or get a used Evo seat.

You get two sparco seats for under $800! Used evo seats aren't that expensive either!

Used Evo seats, I've never liked the idea of going cheap on a safety item (and yes seats are a safety item). If you must go aftermarket, make sure it's certified.

corbeau carrera's and sparco evo seats are comfortable for dd.

you need to determine if its just for racing/dd/ or both.

the cheapest sparco seat would be the r100 version. i have not yet sat on it but people on my miata forum says their comfortable.
