The SS008009RNR-X2 listing is a pair of Sparco Grid Q FIA bucket seats. Both seats carry FIA 8855-1999 homologation, the current approval standard for competition bucket seats across most UK club racing series.

The Grid Q is Sparco’s fabric-trimmed seat in the QRT range, sitting between the entry-level Rev QRT in velour and the Evo QRT shell. Fabric trim improves airflow over longer stints and tends to last longer under regular seasonal use than velour. Construction is fibreglass. Mounting is side mount only, requiring Sparco FIA steel side mounts (SS004902) and a vehicle-specific sub-frame. Neither are included.

The seat suits drivers with a 32 to 36 inch waist. HANS compatibility is confirmed. The seat accepts a 6-point harness. A 4-point harness is not appropriate for an FIA bucket seat in competition use.

Buying as a pair gives consistent trim and shell production batch across driver and co-driver positions, which matters for scrutineering and for pairing your fit. The pair price works out at £342.50 per seat, against £365 for a single Grid Q ordered individually, a saving of £22.50 per seat when both positions need filling. If you are fitting one seat only, the individual Grid Q listing is the correct starting point.

Specify RHD driver side or RHD passenger side when ordering, as the side mount positions vary between the two.

Sparco seat size guide

Sparco give every shell a size letter, S to XL, and publish the weights. The letter tells you more than the model name does.

How Sparco size their seats

Sparco’s own rule for the Evo family is the clearest in the trade: Evo S up to a 32 inch waist, Evo to 34, Evo L to 36 and Evo XL for 38 and above. The rest of the range follows the same letters. A Circuit QRT is an M, the Circuit II is the L; the Grid Q is an XL; the Rev is S and M, the Rev II is L and XL; the Sprint is an M and the Sprint L an L.

QRT is Sparco’s resin transfer moulding, so a QRT shell is the lighter version of the same shape. The Master and Master Advanced are the newer 8855-2021 shells at 32 to 36 inch, and the ADV Prime is the 8862-2009 carbon seat for drivers over 6 ft.

Sprint L is the wide oneThe Sprint L is the widest FIA seat we stock at 40 to 42 inch. Nothing else in the Sparco range goes past a 40.

Measure yourself first

Four numbers decide whether a seat fits. Take them in the clothes you drive in, and write them down before you compare models.

AWaistAround your natural waist, not your trouser size. Trouser sizes usually run an inch or two under the real figure, and the waist bands on our product pages use the real one.

BSeated hip widthSit on a hard chair with your feet flat and measure straight across the widest point of your hips with a rule or a straight edge, not a tape that follows the curve. This is the number that decides whether a fixed shell is tight.

CShouldersStraight across the back at the widest point. Fixed back seats hold you here, so a shell that is narrow at the shoulders is uncomfortable long before it is unsafe.

DHeight and torsoYour height, and if you are over 6 ft whether that is mostly leg or mostly body. A long body needs a taller shell with the head support set higher.

Before you order

Check the car, not only the driver. Transmission tunnels, door cards and B pillars are what stop a wide shell going in. Our seat mounting and fixing points guide covers what to measure.
Side mount and base mount shells are not interchangeable. Which one you need depends on the car and the subframe, so pick the brackets at the same time as the seat.
If you run a HANS or plan to, filter on HANS friendly. The shoulder openings are cut to clear the collar.
FIA seats carry an expiry date on the homologation label. Check what your championship accepts and how long the seat has left, particularly on discounted older stock.

Send us your measurementsWaist, seated hip width, height and the car. We have fitted a lot of Sparco seats and will tell you honestly if the one you have picked is going to be tight. Call 0115 989 3488 or email Sales@GSMPerformance.co.uk.

Waist bands and heights are our product data, checked 6 September 2026. Size letters and weights are from Sparco’s 2019 dimension sheet; the Evo waist rule is Sparco’s own.

Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: The Sparco Grid-Q FIA Bucket Seat, A Perfect Match for the Nissan 350Z, and Sparco Grid Q Sky Gaming Seat Now In-Store and Ready to Test. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.

Will I fit in this seat?
Send us your height and waist size and we will confirm the fit. The paper dimensions only tell half the story, and our showroom team sit in these seats every day, so you get the honest answer rather than a guess from a chart.

How do I know it will feel right, not just fit on paper?
Fair question, because makers publish widths and weights, never feel, and two seats with identical numbers can feel nothing alike in the car. We keep the ranges on display in the Nottingham showroom, you are welcome to come and sit in them, and if you cannot get to us, call and describe your build, as the team sit in these seats every day. Our head support measurements guide shows the kind of real-world data we collect.
