Yes but those things always seemed like women would like them better than men.

Seriously, if you are 200 lbs or less, not extremely broad in the shoulders like a 46 jacket or less, and not bigger than a 40 waist you would make it. You really need to keep arms forward to avoid bolsters bothering lats or arms. passengers usually find them uncomfortable b/c they have no steering wheel to put their arms on. i like them and I just fit.
Yea well after even losing a good amount of weight, i was down to about 230 but very athletic/musculary, fit with absolutely no problem, they were so comfortable

You should def. go for it man, weight saving would be over 100lbs replacing both seats and electronics

There is no doubt the GT3 seats are great and way better than stock. They actually provide lateral support. Fine on long trips as well. The getting in and out you will get used to. Highly recommended. The seat is on rails and you can move it up and back. No motor...but also much lighter. Did I say highly recommended?

I'd say if you're 6 foot and under 200 pounds then yes I'm 5, 11 and 180 and it's just right... Some people really don't like them but you need to moe the lumber support around...

I absolutely love the seats, especially track days. In case you wonder my 6 and 8 yrs old boys can get into the back seat easily.

I havent heard of any diff. versions And a recaro copy meaning pole positions, or an off brand making replicas of the actual GT3 seat?
