Recaro seat subframe
 
Hi all,

Whats the best place to get runners to fit Recaros into a 2005 widetrack STi?

I got evo 7 recaros on sliders that I plan on fitting to these

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Impreza-93...53.m1438.l2649

to fit them into the scoobie

Hopefully in the next few weeks

How does that work then? How do you know your evo seats will bolt to that?

I dont lol, trial and error, but from visually looking at the evo rails, and looking at the chassis rail in that link... I "think" they will line up and be able to drill holes to fit them together..

Thier is nothing off the shelf that will work without custom work.. unless you want to buy a "Bride" or "recaro" seat for for €200+ a rail, I dont even think they are guaranteed to fit out of the box either from what I have seen online

Low mount or side mount seats?
For the side mount seats, Recaro europe sell only the lateral adapter that fit perfect, but the rails are only universal one and they don't sell the Subaru specific rails. You have to buy only in Japan if you want the original Recaro rails.
If you want to use other I've used a pair of M2 Motorsport and are the same as Buddy Club rails, but are very low compared to the stock rails and seats, maybe you are sit down 7 CM lower, maybe more.

M2 are side mount, so wont work with factory base mounted recaros.

I got custom rails made by a Motorsport shop here, real solid, much stronger than any recaro/bride rails ive had, well happy with them.
