I was interested in a specific spec & gave him a call, he told me the following costs:
Saloon GT seats - £100 each,
2 Piece trim in various colours - £40 each,
Custom RX7 Subframe (5mm Alum) - £45 each,
Delivery for a pair of seats - £25.
He said he\'d also implement the runner if we send him the stock subframe... :)
So the total inc. delivery came to £395...
I\'ve nothing to do with him but asked if he\'d be up for a couple of rx7 owners doing a group buy. & he said he\'d do 20% off for us all if we get 5 orders :)
So since were all in the same boat (spec-wise) I was cheecky and asked he could do the above spec for £300 inc. delivery. He agreed :D
Personally don\'t think that\'s too bad a deal for a set of custom light GRP seats in a nice gloss black upholstered in any colour you want! Posted! (If you want the 5 piece upholster think it\'ll be an extra 50quid for the pair)...
But anyway enough of the chattin... would anyone be up for it or am i on my own? :rollin:Hammer
Speculation would be great, his number is on the ebay page for anyone who wants to ask him some direct questions!
Cheers, Seth.
Seth, might want to put it in this (http://www.mazdarotaryclub.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=145) section.

Still awake? Can call you now! :Thumbsup!
sure........
where can I go to try a set of these? how strong(safe) are they :driving
He\'s based up in liverpool :Hammer
I asked him about safety & rigidity in the event of a crash & he replied they\'re far more rigid than some FIA approved models that he sells but i suppose it would be best to check them out first if anyones near liverpool?
Gary @ rotaryart is working on some interesting CF lightweight racing seats for not much more money... sounds awesome, waiting on further details/pics :)
Cheers.
very very good find... im interested in these too
I thought they where based in southport ? Seen them for sale on ebay before. Don\'t they use them in the ultima ?

you might be getting mixed up with the pukka Tillet seats (ultima ones are these IIRC)

CF seats for £300 not much more than shipped? That\'ll be interesting :yes

Heheheh... not sure about that, Gary mentioned a quide price @ £400 for the pair & the potential of a group buy for them still exists... :)
Hope Gary can put some provisional pics up so people can decide if they like the GRP or CF ones since both are pretty good for the money imo!
i\'m very interested in this!! could do with some GRP or CF seats for my car.
