After impatiently waiting 6 weeks, I finally got my Bride Vios III gradation and FG rail today.
The seat is awesome. I'm 5'10" with a 33" waist and fit is nice and snug. It feels like a Recaro SPG. I still can't tell how much lower I am, but I'm definitely lower...maybe 1.5"? The seat's fit in the car is incredible. It perfectly clears both the door and the glove box without rubbing.
Getting in and out's good exercise. It's like I'm on the dip bars at the gym. Left hand's on the door sill and the right hand's on the arm rest when getting in and out.
BTW - I'm don't think I'll ever order a JDM product and wait 6 weeks for it to arrive. It's way too painful.
Did you notice with the new seat/rail that you can move the seat further back? Do you miss not being able to recline it to your liking?
I have a Bride EURO II plus rail coming in next week so just curious.

I don't know if I can move the seat further back than OEM. Never compared. Sorry.
Do I miss reclining? Not one bit. I never reclined during my last year of ownership. I hated the option because if someone reclined, I had to tinker to find my original position.
The seat was excellent at Willow Springs track today. Lots of holding power throughout the day. Very comfortable and perfect driving position. Driving with this bucket seat is like driving a whole new car.
