I'm a tall guy 6'4" and I'm looking to get a racing seat but I'm confused with a couple things. Can you use stock seat belts in a s14 on bucket seats and how does the whole track set, side mount, flat base thing work because I don't want my head hitting the headliner. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure you can. If you pay attention in some Best Motoring and Hot Version videos, you will see that they are using bucket seats and stock seatbelts. I'm not sure how well it actually works in the event of an impact though.

Ah but then I'm curious myself as to where you would put the lock for the belt... Anyone know?

i run sparcosim 6'1i just finished slicing an inch of foam off my bottom cushion and i love it...

as for seat belts, i use the old school S13 slide belts and lap belt, ive stopped quick, and it still holds me in my place

nothing tops an actual racing harness set though...
