I used Brey Krause floor adapter but lining up Recaro slider to the adapter required a fair amount of filing holes to line up with mounting studs on the adapter.

I use the euro GT3 seats which are basically pole positions.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hello had a specific question. Any 6' or so tall drivers using Recaro Topline or CS Sportster Seats and not feeling too cramped. I'm worried the tunnel/console getting a little wider at the rear makes getting them to slide back enough a bit difficult for decent leg room.
Thanks in advance
Thanks guys. I�m aiming for a reclining seat for some added function but I would imagine the buckets give you the most room.
Im really interested in those two Recaro models specifically if they can slide back enough
I would be very interested to see your findings with these seats.
I've got Recaro SRD seats in my 1993 Mustang and they lowered my seating position plenty enough to make it comfy (i'm 6'6"). I would love some leather Speed seats for the 996 but curious how much headroom they would offer. I contacted Wedge Engineering to get info on their brackets but they couldnt tell me how much lower they would sit...
I installed Recaro CS sportster with Recaro sliders. It actually did not give anymore headroom than stock seats, which was disappointing. In terms of of leg room, I am 5'11" with 32 inch inseam and have more than enough leg room and can go back another couple of inches. However, the seat is pretty wide and cannot be pushed back all the way on the slide/seat track. I bought a set of Cantrell motor sports Recaro adjuster ***** which are much thinner than the Recaro ones, which allowed sliding the seat back a bit more.
In terms of headroom, with my helmet on, I still bang my head against the roof. I wish I did not have sunroof, which would give me just enough headroom with helmet on. Without he helmet, it is fine and no issues with headroom for me.
I will warn you, though, it was a pain in the butt to install it. I used Brey Krause floor adapter but lining up Recaro slider to the adapter required a fair amount of filing holes to line up with mounting studs on the adapter. Probably took 5-6 times of back and forth but eventually got it in. It is very firm, but very comfortable and holds me in place during track driving.
No worries. As an FYI, Recaro CS seats only have 1 seat back adjuster **** on the seat. I have a Recaro Speed as well, which has 2, 1 on each side, so I assumed it would be the same and ordered 2 this adjuster **** sets by mistake from Cantrell.
