Aftermarket (or interchangable) seat options?

Well it is no question. The SVX is a tank. What seats fit the SVX? I.e which (if any) Sparco seats, Bride, etc. I don't know too much about seat fitment so please bear in mind! Also anyone know of interchangable seats? like WRX, etc...

I would really like to cut some weight! Just for mpg and cornering sake... (if the situation arises)

I've just had some Sparco Evo II seats fitted to mine. But in order to clear the roll cage, they had to cut out the factory mounts and bolt them to the floor.

I'm not so sure how comfortable these seats would be on an every day basis...my legs get sore driving with them for more than a few hours.

Ah so otherwise they would have fitted to the factory mounts?

Check my locker for pics of my Corbeau install -- I used stock manual rails for both seats and had to fabricate adapter plates to mount the seats to them. Jesse (SubaFreak) has Sparco EVO seats in his SVX.

Customizing seats is inevitable with the SVX. As for as I know, nothing bolts on exactly in our car.
