im thinking of replacing the driver's seat on my 16vt. the leather looks nice but the support is nothing, and my back is in a lot of pain from it. [funny , have it for a year+ only now its getting to me]..

any suggestions , what type of seat would fit??

I've seen pictures of a swedish car with Nouvo Delta Integrale seats, belongs to forumuser Per, and they look really nice.

You will have to make up custom seat mounts to get those seats to mount into the coupe.

I fit a Sparco Rev for track days using a custom made sub-frame. The car feels totally different with one fitted, as you are bolted straight onto the floor pan , but the padding on these seats is pretty meagre, and you feel every bump. Fine on the motorway, but not on the average british B-road .

Trying to find a sub-frame to fit a base-mounted seat is a problem. I tried to find one before I made my own, with no luck from any of the main suppliers (Sparco, OMP, Momo, Cobra, Recaro, etc.). There was a group buy for sports seats ont he old forum that included a custom made subframe, but I have no idea if they are still available

Matty fitted his cobra seats using a marea subframe i believe. Think he had to drill extra holes in it, but that's all.

No reason not to fit whatever seats you want, just need to modify the frame to accommodate.
