Canada Sparco Torinos

Just wondering if anyone has installed Sparco Torinos in their MR2. If so, what kind of brackets did you get, does Sparco make the proper bracket or would custom brackets be required?

I had them in my car. Sparco sells brackets made from Wedge Engineering. You will need sliders to go along with them. Fitment was okay, but they were a bitch to install. If you need them, I can get them for you. It will take a while to get them in though.

Why dont you just give SPARCO a call? They can answer all of your questions im sure, and then you dont need to wait for others to reply on a forum.

The number is 800-224-RACE.

I have the Sparco Sprints with the Sparco (wedge) brackets and Sparco sliders.
I bought everything from OG Racing (google them).

At first I installed the seatas without the sliders (to reduce weight and to have the seats bolted directly). I immediately realized the seat was way too low. I felt like I was sitting on the floor. So I ordered the sliders and all was well.

I had zero install problems. I think the biggest thing you can go to make the install easy, is do not tighten any of the nuts/bolts down until you have all 4 started. It is much easy to line up the nuts/bolts and get them all started when there is "slack" in the whole set up and you can nudge stuff a bit. If you just tighten the first bolt all the way down, it will be hard to line up the rest.
