lowered seat bracket/rails

Just got my seat bracket modified/lowered for about 1". the seating position is now perfect.

gino from gb-motorsport did it for me. the bracket was cut, weld, and on one of the mount point was extented (see 2nd photo), then painted. everything fit perfectly. now both of my front seats are lowered for about 1". much better driving position.

around 5'11", i feel that the stock seats are a bit high, i need to bend my knees too much. with the seats lowered, i feel like heel-toe action is more natural. also the cg is a little better
