A Planted Technology seat bracket for the Mitsubishi Evo 9. Part number SB049-5002.
The Evo 7, 8 and 9 all sit on the CT9A chassis and share one design, so this carries an SB049 suffix alongside the Evo 7 and the Evo 8. The Evo 10 is CZ4A and takes SB014.
The last of the 4G63
That is what makes the 9 the one people chase. Mitsubishi replaced the engine with the 4B11 for the Evo 10, and the 4G63 has thirty years of development and parts behind it that the newer engine does not. The 9 also introduced MIVEC on the intake side.
The FQ-360 and the Evo 9 MR are the versions that command the money here.
The Recaros
Standard on most, and a substantial part of what the car is worth now that values have climbed. Store them and their fixings somewhere dry and label them.
A factory Recaro will not bolt to standard side mounts, because Recaro use their own arrangement.
Have you written anything useful for my car?
Yes: Customer Question: How Do I Fit Recaro Seats Into My Mitsubishi Evo 9?. Those are written around the same car, from real fittings and customer questions, so they are worth a look before you decide.
Will this fit my car?
This frame is made for the Mitsubishi Evo 9. Chassis code and years matter more than the badge, as floor pans change between generations, so if your car sits near a changeover year, send us the registration and we will confirm before you order.
Which seats does it take?
Check the bolt pattern in the specification against your seat. The Compatible seats tab above lists what bolts straight on. If your seat is not listed, tell us what you run and we will confirm the fit.
Do I keep fore-and-aft adjustment?
Only with a sliding runner between the frame and the seat, which is a separate part on Planted frames. If more than one person drives the car, budget for the runner. Our guide to sliding runners explains the options and widths.
Is this for the driver or passenger side?
Both sides are available on this listing, pick driver or passenger side at the point of order (sides listed are for right-hand-drive cars). Left-hand-drive car? Ask us, as the sides swap over and availability varies by model.
