That's good to know. I'm 5'11 and 32 waist so this seat should fit me well.

You and a few customers of ours as well. I was surprised that the Circuit II was in stock.

Sounds like a plan, just ask for Devin when you come in.

Anyone have any issues fitting a Circuit 2 on the passenger side? I would think not but asking anyway.

I will say, the shoulder harness holes will probably be too low for you (they are for me). So if you're looking to use 4,5,6 point harnesses, I'd go for something else

I have basically given up on ordering from sparco.it. It appears that most of the seats that were really cheap were leftovers. New seats are starting to appear and the prices are noticeably higher. The Rev and Evo and others are still terminally out of stock. I have noticed other overseas vendors are starting to sell 2017 version of the rev (also a Rev II) and they have a new item number now. I will probably end up buying a 2017 rev from a different overseas vendor unless the new rev pops up on sparco's site within the next couple days. Kinda sucks because it's going to cost several hundred dollars more...

1) Sparco PRO ADV
2) 34
3) 6 feet
4) big broad chest. Large shoulders. 200 weight. Racecar only.

Best seat iv been in. Hugs me like a glove. This seat will not fit a factory s2000.
the seat is HUGE. The thigh area will touch the tranny tunnel and maybe even the doors.

The shoulder bolsters are really wide they will not let ur door to be closed.
Alos my seat is virtually touching the floor with low down brackets. And I fit perfectly knees clear everywhere.
have air for my marbles to breath haha.

Awsome seat. Sucks u can't fit it in a stock s2000.

I'm pulling the trigger today on my passenger side Sparco Circuit 2. Even with ~$200 in shipping charges, with the 15% discount I'm still under $600.

My last Sparco.IT order was here in just 6 days.

How much lower do you sit in this seat vs stock?

I can see up and over the hood. I can see both fenders too. I say it's an inch lower. Btw the butt cushion is angled at 35 degree so it's hard to compare to oem.

Anyone having trouble ordering from the sparco.it site?
I tried twice and every time I press the process payment button on the paypal page it sends me back to the step 1 of the checkout page and the order doesn't process.
