Kevlar seat diet

Lost 91lbs today. Kevlar Sparcos saved me 61lb. Antigravity battery lost me 30lbs. Not bad. I’d like to get the car weighed to know the actual weight. Lost lots of weight with the brakes, wheels, suspension, muffler, now seats and battery.
Stock seats were 47.1lbs without mounts, Sparcos are 16.1lbs. Pretty much a direct bolt in, just needed to use a little bracket to extend the stock slider length, sparco bottom mount was the same width as the factory seats. Easy stuff

Matching stiching. I couldn’t be happier with the material and workmanship. I’m a sucker for the yellowish Kevlar composite, and super light weight.
I need to figure out seat belts. I didn’t really want to do harnesses but I think I might do some Sabelts. anyway just wanted to share with you guys.

 

Image Unavailable, Please Login I love these batterys. The car cranks so much faster. I’ve used them in a few cars now, great part.

 

Haha! They are fairly narrow, seem to be the same size as all the recaro pole position I’ve had

 

Lower, probably an inch or more

 

Thanks Barry! It’s coming along

 

Thank you Trevor
As you can imagine they are not the easiest to get in and out of. They are on the more extreme side of race buckets. Also I’m a size 32 waist. You can’t be much bigger than that in the waist or they will be super snug and to much for comfortable driving. Mine have custom foam shaped like the special Ferrari foam pads so I can’t give feedback on the Sparco foam.
But all that said they are insanely good when you are really pushing the car hard. They also look very very trick, very stiff shell and are super light, saved 60lbs.
I love them
