Default Sparco F200 vs Sprint

Looking at purchasing apair if sparco seats for my NB, tge Sparco's and PCI one piece brackets seem to be the most direct fit option for around 1k.

Other than the FIA certification what is the difference between the F200 and the Sprint V? I do not plan on racing in any classes that require FIA certs, but if the seat is of higher quality I have no problem spending the extra money.

The f200s can't be side mounted. You need the sprints if you want to use the pci side mount brackets. (That's my setup). I hope you are skinny, I'm 6 ft 170lbs and the shoulder bolsters are very tight on my sprints. I don't think I would buy them again.

I am also 6' 170lbs. I have been trying to track down a seat to sit in or some better reviews and havent had much luck. I have had Corbeau FX1 Pro's previously that I fit well in and would certainly buy again if they fit in a miata. I however do not fit well in the ebay Bride seats.

I like the omp trs e. They are $389 from racer parts wholesale. I actually sat on one but went for the sparco because it was cheaper and guaranteed to fit.
