Best $100 dollar racing seat EVER!!!!

[koukicody]

Long story short

So i was flipping through craigslist and came upon a odd looking ad.2000 Ferarri 360 GT racing seat by OMP - $100i thought no fuggen way, who the hell is that stupid? turns out this guy is. i called him up and asked some questions about the seat and asked again if it was only 100 bucks. he assured me that it was.

so today i drove from my work (huntington beach) to glendale (thats far) to a car leasing place where the seat was at. I paid him as quicky as possible and got the hell out of there in case he changed his mind.

so heres the pics. its a black leather wrapped full carbon fiber fixed bucket seat.



carbon closeup



the ID tag with the FIA approval



and finnaly, if you look closely you can see the ferarri horse logo in the head rest of the seat



so all in all im pretty damn stoked today. Now i just got to see if i can mount it in my Miata lol. if i cant ill just flip it for alot of profit

[nismofly]

LOL

im amazed this actually turned out like this

well get it in the miata, no worries

[koukicody]

i hope i can lol

BTW. It also came with red Sabelt racing harnesses included in the 100 bucks w00t!

OMP FTWyou got a better deal than I did w/ my Sparco Sprint. Way to go. I love OMP pedals btw.

[koukicody]

yeah, i like them too. omp is pure gangsta! and usually expensive as hell!

[Red coupe]

what ever that thing looks dumb.

[koukicody]

dont be jealous

[underground57]

For that seat, it's totally worth having someone custom fab mounts if you can't find any aftermarket. Especially for the price you paid.

[Florida240sx]

Nice find

[redtop91]

dont be jealous

[koukicody]

i still cant find any info on this seat. the only one i found thats even close to it is retailed at $2900!!!!!!!!!!

[Crunkrich]

^Damn, personally I would sell the SOB and get a set of nice Sparcos and use extra cash for something else. Although having a Ferrari seat does qualify as pimp status lol

edit: any local Ferrari dealers? You could take it there to have them check it out.

[jdm_master_X]

wow dude you came up!

[Oatmealman]

How do you sit in it? unless your annerexic,belemic,or have a waist smaller than a 34 i don't see you fitting in it.

So you're saying by having a waist size smaller than 34 a person is anorexic or bulimic? I have 32" waist and am 6'1" 165 lbs. I'd fit fine.

Screw exercise and a healthy lifestyle, it must be cause I hurl every night over the toilet.

yes, there is a local ferrari dealer, but im gonna go to subisports first cuz theyre a omp dealer and see if they can tell me anything more about this seat. if not, then ill go to the ferrari dealer.

Ghetto, if you squint real hard, you can make out the fine print. It says, "NO FATTIES!"

[Beancooker]

That's really freakin awesome... congratulations!!!

[HashiriyaS14]

NICE!

You could always try listing it on a Ferrari forum and see what they'll give you for it.

Who knows, you might be able to turn around and sell it for $1k++

[nsrZ32]

that's a hell of a buy! Congrats man.

I bet you could easily bring back a grand plus for it.

you know that **** is stolen. some guy was on craiglist selling **** off my friends ek hatch in the summer. i thought it was strange i saw a complete ek hatch partout and went to the guys house acting dumb and there the thing was. i said why is the motor so cheap? (k20a for 800$) he said his gf was preg and there moving somwhere cheaper to live. i said id be back in 0 minutes with a truck and lift to get it. i came back with my friend and he got in the car and said hmm hey man it would be weird if this key worked....chhhhh vroomm....hey looky there this key i have works, amazing? the guy went and got a baseball bat so i went and got a pipe and my friend grabed a chair and we called the cops and watched him til lthey got there.

you are a lucky basterd period.

[dickie]

^good story, glad to hear your friend got his hatch back. a k20a in an ek is something id like to own someday, did he use the 6-speed too?

[corey240]

im not shore. he moved 2 weeks after that thinknig it will have a less chance of being stolen insouth carolina he left it stock except for a highflow cat and header. he did it as cheap as possible so it probly was 5 speed, i never got to drive it and was only in it 2 times lol ek k20 is the dd dream for me, next to a reliable fd

[S3t0_S13]
