Im about to purchase a wedge engineering seat base for the passenger side of my z for a sparco torino, but I wanted to make sure that it would mate up to my torino without problems. Anyone else have these seat bases and sparco seats? Thanks.

 

Yeah I've used them many times in the past. They make the bases for Sparco USA.

 

I'd highly recommend you get Sparco's own laser cut bases - not sure if edge makes these or if Sparco does them on their own, but the fitment is alot better than anything I've ever seen from Wedge

 

The problem with the Sparco is that they often have zero stock when it comes to accessories.

 

I've also heard not-so-good things about Wedge.

However, the supposedly genuine Sparco brackets I bought didn't fit too well either.

 

Well ive got the sparco driver side bracket and was hoping to not have to spend 125+shipping for a passenger bracket and I can get a passenger wedge bracket for well under 100 shipped. Would it be worth it to pick that bracket up? I just want to make sure it will fit in my car and attach to my torino seat.

 

for $25 why would you want to struggle with something? I've fit the Sparco laser cut ones before, and had zero fitment issues - lined right up

 

well its actually $70 dollars difference for what im looking at now...

 

Alright, well for the price I figure I would give it a shot and recently got that wedge bracket ($65 bucks).

It looks like it would fit in the Z just fine.. .visually without taking out my stock seats yet... but when I went to bolt the bracket to the bottom of the sparco torino seat that I have it was WAY too wide for the sparcos sliders (which apparently you are supposed to use with the wedge bases). The bracket was literally 3 or 4 inches to wide... seems like it was WAY to far off so Im not sure what the deal is... my driver side sparco seat base fit perfectly up to the sliders... I have yet to try to install them since I effectively dont have a passenger seat base.

Thought I would give everyone the heads up and FYI on this.
Any comments, tips, suggestions? (other than "buy a sparco seat base" because i will be doing that soon anyway)
