Competition seats for the BRZWhich bucket seat for a Subaru BRZ
The Cobra Monaco Pro FIA at £235 is the practical starting point for a track day BRZ. The Mirco RS2 3D Fibreglass at £354.50 is well judged for the money at a lighter weight. For a BRZ built properly for competition, the Corbeau Sprint X System 5 Vinyl XL at £815 gives the strongest support here.
Reclining sport seats
The Sparco R100 Martini Racing at £291.66 and Auto Style Type AK at £235 or Type RK at £257.50 are the accessible starting points. The Auto Style Type BS5 at £295 and Sparco R333 at £374.56 sit a step up. The Cobra Misano Anniversary at £1374.17 is the top of the range.

Reclining seats for the BRZWhich reclining seat for a Subaru BRZ
The Sparco R100 Martini Racing at £291.66 is the practical starting point for a road-going BRZ. The Sparco R333 at £374.56 is a well proven mid-tier choice. For the top of the range, the Cobra Misano Anniversary at £1374.17 gives the most comfort for daily use.
Roll cage
The Custom Cages BRZ 2012 FIA T45 Roll Cage at £2683.82 is confirmed for the BRZ and is the only cage we currently list for this car.
Harnesses
Harnesses need a roll cage or harness barA 4-point, 5-point or 6-point harness with separate shoulder straps needs proper attachment points above and behind the seat. Fit a roll cage or a properly engineered harness bar before using anything above a 3-point belt.
The TRS Clubman 3-point bolt-in at £80 and 4-point clip-in at £100 both use the standard seat belt anchor points and do not need a cage. For 4-point competition use, the TRS Magnum 4-point FIA at £205 and the Takata Drift II at £229 are the step up.
For 6-point harnesses, the cage goes in first. The TRS Magnum 6-point Superlite FIA at £245, the Takata Drift III at £270, and the Schroth Profi 3×2 at £370.01 all suit a caged BRZ going to competition or serious track days.

Common questions
Which subframe should I use?
The PCI Racing Sliding Sub Frame at £275 or the Planted Technology Seat Brackets at £185.50 are both confirmed for the BRZ.
Do you stock a roll cage for the BRZ?
Yes, the Custom Cages BRZ 2012 FIA T45 Roll Cage at £2683.82 is confirmed for the BRZ and is the only cage we currently list.
Can I run a 6-point harness without a roll cage?
No. A 6-point harness needs anchor points above and behind the seat for the shoulder straps. Fit a roll cage or a properly engineered harness bar first.
Should I choose a competition bucket or a reclining seat?
A competition bucket holds you better through a corner but is harder to live with day to day. A reclining seat keeps more factory comfort while still improving on the standard seat.
