hey,does anyone have experience with this seat?is the back really straight on it?comfortable(especially with a helmet)?really any info on fixed seats.

Corbeau ClubmanThe Clubman race seat is a great lightweight, entry level race seat. This seat features extra high kidney bolsters to give you that true “bucket seat” look and feel. What also makes this seat different is it's more reclined than most fixed back seats. For many, this extra recline makes it much more comfortable. As a rule of thumb, the Clubman will fit up to 36 inch waist. High wear patches are strategically placed to protect your seat from abuse in the high wear areas. The Clubman race seat is available in cloth and vinyl materials.http://www.enjukuracing.com/im...L.jpg

if you want something a little more reclined and a little more comfy I would go with the FX1 Pro they feel better to me and they are only 60 bucks more either that or the Forza (Which are tha same price) they look more comfy in fact another buddy of my from a while back had the FX1's and they hold you real nice but they are better than the club man ones if you are daily with this car

I have an FX1 Pro in my S13 with a Nagisa side mount rail and I like it. Go with that over the clubman for sure- I'm not pisitive, but I am fairly certain that the FX1 is the only Corbeau seat that can be side mounted. You don't want a bottom mount Corbeau seat in an S13 IMO... it causes the seat/driver to sit way too high.

I am 6'0" 155 lbs and I fit in the seat/car very well. I have yet to try it with a helmet, though.
