Default Need some advice

Ok so let me start off by saying I'm new to the forum so any help will be appreciated. Now to my problem... Well it's not really a problem but I just got my s2k as we all know it's a vary tight car lol now I'm 6'3 and I fit comfortably in the car until I put my uniform ( I'm currently in the Army) and when I put my boots I easily gain an extra 1 1/2 - 2 ". I was wondering if there's anyway to make the seat go back further than its factory settings ?

Not really. A BYS Seat rail may give you a little more space since it lowers the seat but its not really going to push it back any more. An aftermarket bucket seat may let you physically sit further back as there is less padding so maybe that could work but with the buckets you'll have a tighter fit int he actual seat.

I have no problems when I wear these. But I'm well under 6'3". They're not the greatest for heal-and-toe shifting in the cramped foot well.


Seat back placement on my S2000 is limited by the seat back pressing against the rear of the cockpit. I have little travel remaining. I'm thinking you need a thinner seat back but have no idea how that's achievable.
