Default Sparco Sprint or Buddy Club bucket seats?

Happy Friday to all!

I'm currently looking to rip out my OEM seats in my '08 and replace them with bucket seats. I'm prepping to have my first track day in the summer but my car is mostly a street car. My friend has Status seats in his show car and I love them... just not in my budget.

I usually find reviews on this forum but can't seem to find much info on both of these seats. My budget is around $400 per seat so please work with me.

The Buddy Clubs are apparently pretty comfortable and light-weight for around $400 shipped per seat. Anybody have Buddy Clubs? What brackets/rails are you using? Any issues with installation?

But I love the look of the Sparco Sprints - I would get them in Blue and they cost a little less than the Buddy Clubs... But it seems I may be sacrificing comfort (which I don't really mind). I am 5'8, 150lbs. Again, what's the best seat rail/bracket combo for these seats in our cars?

I appreciate the help guys.

I would start hitting the track. Seats and the proper safety equipment to run them is a slippery slope.

Yeah... I talked myself out of it and decided to just get some bolt-ons instead haha. The stress to getting seats seems like it isn't worth it right now... maybe in the future if I decide to take this a little more seriously. thanks once again.
