I have been looking at these seats for my car. From what I have heard and talked to people about the Sparco Sprint fits in without any real trouble on the standard rails.

Now from what I understand these Sparco Speeds are exactly the same seat, they just have a bit more foam in them to make them a bit more comfortable. What I'm wondering is will they fit directly in like the Sprints or not? And has anybody had any experience with these \"Speeds\". I don;t hear about many people using them.

sounds like an improvement!
the side bits are also covered in a stronger material, which is a good thing..

The drivers rail just needs two new holes drilled and are the right width. The passenger side however has the wrong width too, I made up some adapters for them but have not got around to making some more which use slightly thicker steel and higher spec bolts. The ones I am making are going to have grade 12.9 8mm high tensile cap bolts as the law here for some reason requires you use 8mm grade 10.9 as a minimum.

Very true, I have no problems but some of my taller more built mates struggle greatly!
