Hi bro, if you are looking for comfort, i fully agree with madman, forget about full bucket seat coz that's not what they are for.
The best value for money is a very subjective thing, like for me, i'm using the sparco fighter replica. It's a full bucket, it looks nice and does its job.
Actually what are you looking for in a bucket seat?
As for me, my main reason is to release more headroom which was accomplished with my sparco fighter.
Sparco fighter fits your waist size very very well. Price is cheap too, around RM500 for one seat.

Again, replica is nowhere as good as the original. That's totally out of the question.

Budget 1k+, i strongly consider SSCUS. That's what i would get

Guys, I'm looking for bucket seat to replace original seat..Personally, I prefer leather bucket seat..any brand or model recommend? budget RM1k for 1 pair..  

RM1k Budget is considered good bro , I would suggest

For a replica Bride seat or SSCUS , I feel that the SSCUS comfort would be better than your levin seat bro . Your levin seat is stock right ?

Worse seat that I have tried = FTO seat , Subaru Seat

Thanks.

For me, long distance comfort is the main priority. Then comes the design.

I have 2 cars that i'm planning on changing the seats. My Wira (with the Levin) and Corolla '89 (stock seats). Both still reliable.

I find leather seats stings after being out in the sun.

Maybe it can be solve by using good tinted? by the way, my car doesn't expose under the sun for long time..mostly I park in the covered parking.. 
Actually what the Levin? 

Levin seats.

Wira 
My current stock seat is not comfort..lol..
I wanted to re-wrap to leather seat..but the price is around RM500 for front pair..don't know it worth or not? because one of my bro's friend wanted to let go his bucket seat which I see quite nice for RM800 but I dont know what brand is that(see through pic, haven't see the real seat yet)..personally prefer leather instead of fabric..
RM1k for front pair consider good? seriously I don't know the market price range for bucket seat..what I want is comfort, hold me tight when high speed cornering, , design look exclusive and leather.. 

I remember seeing RM800 for a pair of SSCUS seats ( Non Leather ) , RM650 for a Bride Low Max Seat ( Replica ) ..

As for the Bride Low Max , your ass would be rest well inside and tight + comfort ( But I am not sure wheather your waist could fit inside )

However , are there leather SSCUS below RM1k in the market ?

Thanks.

How come you didn't like the FTO and Subaru?

I'm sure my size can fit any of bucket seat..because I'm small 

As for the FTO and Subaru seat , many seller define them as a bucket seat . However , when I sat on the seat , I was not rest well and I my body position were higher compared to Satria & Gen2 seats .

sscus viper110 fits me well.... RM1300 including railing....
feels like full bucket but can adjust.....
previous set is sscus Euro PU... it fits my back well but not on my butt....
as for ur waist size i would say Euro PU suit u...

Hi chaf, mind to explain to me what is railing? is it the bar at the bottom of the seat that hold the seat? 

For me, full bucket for long distance is not that bad, i've been using Full Bucket all the times, if possible, dont get Japanese full bucket, they are really thin and torture your a$$ but they are light enough

Personally i'm using european bucket, slightly heavier than japanese one but no problem for long distance
