List of Parts Upgraded and Services Performed at GMG Racing:

Custom Upholstered Sparco Racing Seats



As an alternative to the factory Audi R8 GT Alcantara Bucket Seats that are only available in Europe, we reupholstered the Sparco EVO 2 Racing Seats in leather and diamond stitched alcantara to match the R8's luxurious interior and mounted it on our GMG R8 seat base

GMG Audi R8 Seat Base for Aftermarket Racing Seats





The GMG Racing Audi R8 seat base utilizes the factory seat mounting provisions and provide a low-profile, flat surface for mounting aftermarket racing seats. The seat base is specific to the Audi R8 and are compatible with racing seats from leading manufacturers such as Sparco, Recaro, or Sabelt race seats, in both 12" and 14" wide frame sizes.

Unlike off the shelf seat bases from other manufacturers, the GMG Racing seatbase presents a solution to install the seats with lowest profile with the height of only 0.4375". The lower height achieved by the GMG Racing seat base will help position the driver's head to be lower than the top of the vehicle’s roll bar and maintain clearance from the headliner as well as giving additional helmet room. For easy installation, provisions for 12" and 14" wide seats are pre-drilled and tapped; with its precision CNC design, the provisions are perfectly parallel for smooth operation of the seat sliders.

To provide a strong flex-free mount, the GMG Racing seat base is constructed with 1/4" thick laser cut steel and features an attractive pocketed design for weight savings. In addition to the mounting holes provided for standard bolt-on installation, the GMG Racing base has a wide metal platform to allow custom mounting of side mounts direct to the base (drilling required). The seat base also feature threaded holes to directly mount 6 harnesses using SAE approved 7/16x20 hardware without drilling through the floor pan; to accommodate different driver heights, there are multiple locations. The base is powder coated in a black finish.
