Default Seats / Size question!

hi everyone.

New member, seriously considering an s2k very soon.

However, im 6ft 8" tall. the car will be being fitted with lower rails and buckets.

Ive managed to fit in a standard car and drive, just. and i can comfortably fit in a rx7 with same seat setup.

Should i be worried? based in the uk im struggling to find someone with aftermarket seats and rails to test.

any help appreciated

Im just shy of 6'4, and weigh 185lbs, and I still have a few inches between me and the top. with lower rails, and buckets, I think you'll be ok. Just make sure you buy buckets that you can fit into, in terms of your waist. Sorry I cant help you any more.

I think it depends a lot on how tall your torso is. I'm 6'4" and my head is about 1cm away from touching the roof. If you are 6'8" it is possible you might be able to fit, but even with your butt scraping the carpet it's going to be damn close. Oh, and, good luck with heel toe-ing unless your ankles are really, really flexible.
