Racetech - Racing Seats, Harnesses and Seat Accessories Performance Parts & Modifications

When it comes to motorsport, the seat you choose isn’t just about comfort—it's about safety, performance, and that critical connection between you and the car. That’s why Racetech seats have earned a reputation as some of the best in the world. Trusted in everything from touring cars and rally machines to drift and drag cars, they’re designed to keep you planted, protected, and confident, no matter how demanding the race. At Empire Performance, we’re proud to bring these world-class race seats to Australian drivers who demand the absolute best.

What makes Racetech different is the way they combine cutting-edge composite and carbon fibre construction with clever design that prioritises both safety and comfort. These aren’t seats that simply meet FIA standards—they push the boundaries, offering enhanced rigidity, ergonomic shaping, and features that give you the edge on track. Whether you’re chasing faster lap times at a local circuit, competing in tarmac rallies, or building a full-spec race car, Racetech seats deliver the kind of reliability and support you need when it matters most. And because we specialise in performance parts, you can trust that every Racetech product we stock has been tried, tested, and built to handle real-world racing conditions.

Choosing the Right Racetech Seat

Not all race seats are built the same, and Racetech understands that every driver and every car has different needs. That’s why their range covers everything from lightweight carbon fibre shells to more versatile composite models. The flagship Racetech 4119 series, for example, is a favourite in professional motorsport thanks to its incredible strength and FIA 8862-2009 homologation, while the 4100 series offers an outstanding balance of performance and affordability for club racers and track-day enthusiasts. Whatever your motorsport goals, there’s a Racetech seat designed to give you the best fit.

Fitment isn’t just about the car, though—it's about you. Racetech seats are available in a variety of widths and configurations, so you can find a seat that matches your body type perfectly. A snug, supportive fit improves both comfort and control, especially under heavy braking and high-G cornering. At Empire Performance, we’re here to guide you through the options, helping you select a seat that feels right for you and suits your build. If you’re unsure which model is best for your application—whether it’s rally, circuit, drift, or off-road—our team can recommend the perfect match based on experience and customer feedback.

Installation, Maintenance & Practical Use

Getting your Racetech seat installed properly is just as important as choosing the right model. Most seats require dedicated mounting brackets and, in many cases, additional hardware to ensure compliance with safety regulations. Racetech offers both side-mount and back-mount solutions, and we supply the fittings you’ll need to secure your seat safely in place. If you’re running harnesses—like Racetech’s FIA-approved 6-point harnesses with lightweight alloy adjusters—we can also help you understand the best way to integrate them with your roll cage or harness bar for maximum protection.

One of the things racers love most about Racetech seats is their durability. Built from high-grade composites and carbon fibre, they’re designed to withstand the rigours of motorsport season after season. Still, like all safety equipment, they have a service life and should be inspected regularly for wear or damage, particularly after an incident. A well-maintained seat will not only last longer but also give you peace of mind every time you strap in. At Empire Performance, we stock the latest Racetech models and accessories, so when it’s time to upgrade or replace, you’ll know you’re getting genuine products backed by FIA approval and trusted support.
