GTS Bucket Seat
The GTS is our best-selling fixed bucket seat for sim racing, combining comfort, motorsport styling and excellent value. Designed for direct fitment to the R-PRO 80x40 Sim Rig or R-MAX 160x40 Sim Rig, the GTS includes both adjustable side-mount seat brackets and a dual-locking seat slider, making it straightforward to install and adjust to your preferred driving position.
The GTS is a bucket seat, so it's similar to what you find in racing cars, making it ideal for racers looking to enhance their sim racing experience and immerse themselves fully in virtual motorsport.
The rear features an exposed fibreglass shell with a smooth, gloss finish, giving the seat a distinctive motorsport-inspired appearance, and adding to the overall race-car aesthetic. The front of the seat has the Upshift logo carefully embroidered below the headrest, and contrast stitching is used to create a luxurious and elegant colour scheme that emphasises its racing intentions.
The GTS has a comfortable fabric upholstery, meaning you will be comfortable during extended sim racing sessions.
Seat Sizing Diagram | GTS Bucket Seat
Recommended waist size: Up to approximately 36 inch
The GTS features a rigid fibreglass shell with deep, fixed side bolsters, creating a supportive seating position inspired by real racing cars.
Unlike a reclining seat, the fixed shell and bolsters provide very little flexibility in their shape, so customers with a broader build may find the GTS more restrictive.

Shoulders Overall Width: 21.3 inches
Upper Backrest Inner Width: 16.3 inches
Lower Backrest Inner Width: 17.1 inches
Seat Base Width (Upper): 19.1 inches
Seat Base Overall Width: 24.4 inches

The GTS is a medium-large fixed bucket seat designed to accommodate a broad range of users. However, bucket seat suitability depends on individual body proportions, particularly hip and torso width, as well as your preferred seating position. We recommend referring to the measurements in the sizing diagram above before ordering.
As a general guide based on our experience, the GTS is typically suitable for users up to approximately 195 cm (6 ft 5 in) in height and a 36-inch waist. Customers requiring a less restrictive seat may prefer our RS1 Recline Seat or JDM Recline Seat.
Seat Brackets & Dual-locking Seat Slider Included!
The GTS Bucket Seat is fully compatible with our R-PRO Black Edition 80x40 Sim Rig and R-MAX Black Edition 160x40 Sim Rig, and includes a set of universal side mount seat brackets and a dual-locking seat slider.
The GTS attaches to the sim rig using the included side-mount seat brackets. Multiple mounting holes allow you to independently adjust the front and rear mounting heights, enabling you to fine-tune the seat's height and inclination.
Additionally, a dual-locking seat slider is included, allowing quick and easy forwards and backwards adjustment, making it simple to find a comfortable driving position.
