Default Sparco Evo 2 US, how to go lower.

Hey everyone, I'm installing my Sparco Evo 2 US seat in my s2000 and have some questions. Currently i'm using buddy club super low seat rails at the lowest positions and am sitting up way to high in the car. So, other than having some brackets custom made are there any rails or mounts that you would suggest that I take a look at? I need to lower the seat at least 1 1/2 to 2 inches.

I'm 6'2" about 240lbs. Seat fits me good and just fits in the car. Just looking to go lower.

Thanks in advance! (Yes, I looked through the forum and found some answers but they were years old. I wasn't sure if a new product has come out that would help lower the seat)

Until something is figured out is there a removable bottom cushion? Won't be too comfortable though.

Looks like you'll need more than a couple of inches to sit right....

i also tried using the buddy club rails with my evo 2...but couldn't get it mounted. i went the custom route using standard sparco side mounts and welding it to some flat bar from home depot. im 6-1 and gained plenty of headroom. from seeing your seating position, it looks like you will need to recline a lot more to get the headroom that you want. my seat practically touches my 4pt roll bar. this might make you too far from the stock steering wheel. I had to swap in an aftermarket wheel and quick release to get the wheel spaced out far enough. but the seating position is spot on!

oh yeah, and i also chopped out some of the lower seat cushion. took about half of it out.
