    The genuine ones are pretty decent.

    Most of the newer models are made to look pretty flashy for all the cool guys, but theyre not a bad seat.

    I had an old early 90s bride fixed back a while ago, and it was one of the most comfy seats Ive had. They seem to run them in alot of japanese racing cars, so Id assume them to be better than our monza/autotechnica ones over here.

    Only bad thing is that theyre not ADR or FIA approved, so would only be good for up to club level motorsport. Im sure you could get them approved (for sure ADR anyways) but it depends how deep your pockets are.

    not ADR but they are FIA approved. Depends on what you buy really. For a value for money, the Velo GP-90 is sweet.

    The Sparco seem like a good value for money seat Evo3 was what i was looking at, and can fit a real size human being in them too.

    Had a rally old Bride Brix which a swapped for an equally old Velo GP90. Velo wins hands down! Better comfort and a better fit. Mind you I am 6'2' of average build so a Bride was never really going to work...
