I have these seats and I love them. I used to have the Cobra Carbon Fiber seats (really light) but it wasn't comfortable enough for everyday driving and hard to get in. The Sparco Torino seats look awesome (I have the red seats) the only downside is the weight which with bracket is probably a little heavier than stock. Also the seat might sit a little higher than stock but it gives you adjustability that the Cobra seats don't offer.
Most people go with racing seats to save weight and have more side support but most of us can't even drive near the limit of the car. Unless you can, the seats should not hurt performance. Maybe when I can drive 99% of the car capability than I change back to the lighter racing seats.

Sparco is working on a carbon fiber seat for introduction later this summer. Probably spendy, but should be very light. They will tilt, which is a nice feature for really light seats, as most are buckets.
I believe the seat is a little lighter than stock seat but the bracket is really heavy, so the total installation is heavier than stock seats based on my experience (go by feel as I did not weight the bracket and seat). Now if one can get aluminum brackets like the Dali fire extinguisher mount, it should be significant lighter.

Andrie so about 1300 shipped to my door? Give me a price with shipping to North Dakota please. If you can give a poor fellow NSXer a break that would be great.
Hey, Purevil, email me directly. I think I should be able to do less than $1300 shipped to your door. Shipping usually cost around $75 to there for a pair.
