Default Need feedback from Sparco (tall) user.

Hi Guys, I am looking for a Sparco seat recently. I have some concerns regarding the seat & head room. I am a 6”3 tall with 36” waist and 34” for the pants. I am thinking of EVO II (US)/Pro 2000 (II), not sure which one should fit well?
In addition, there is no room at all to the roof when I wear helmet with the 03 base seat, I heard people said the Sparco is even higher than the stock seat. I was thinking of without using the slider, but the holes in sparco seat mount and floor mount that I have don’t align. How do you guys lowered your seat except shortening the floor mount? Thanks in advance!

so, the evo 2 will not fit in our cars without trimmnig the door panel. i tested my evo 2 out of another car. the shoulder is slightly too big. normally w/ side mount seats it will lower vs factory.

Really? I know JDS motoring owner's 350Z has a new version EVO2.
So you are saying your EVO2 with slider and side mount is lower than the OEM seat? that will be great.

I didnt know this issue when I saw it. I didnt feel anything improper when I closed the door. Not sure if he did some mods on it.

I just saw ur previous post that you said EVO2 does not fit in ur car at all. Does it just hit the panel or you cannot close the door? I probably will go for EVO2, so I have to make sure the fitment.
