I like to sit quite upright and close-ish to the wheel and find my head has zero room for a helmet (not even enough head room without a helmet) and my right knee hits the column plastic with it all the way up. I figure minimum an inch lower is what I need to consider the car, but I also am not sure what’s going to be involved wiring/warning light defeat wise to change seats and brackets. Also do we know yet eta for aftermarket seat/rail options or whether 1st Gen aftermarket parts are likely to fit?
Im 6'1 and I sight directly upright as well I fit just fine however I would not be able to wear a helmet unless I move the seat back. Do you have more leg length or more torso length? I actually sit further up in the BRZ than I do my Z3 as the pedals in my BMW are so much closer to my feet I can push the seat back a bit. Also do you have the pitch of the seat cranked down? Ive found you can gain a little more clearance by pitching the seat a bit
