This depends highly on what type of mounts of if the install was custom.
Some of the "race" seats are custom mounted, which allows them to be very low.
Most of the adapter brackets available from the manufacturer (i.e. Sparco brackets made for the FC3S for your Sparco seat) will typically locate the seat really high - sometime higher than the stock seat.

I seen these on the Audi forum. What do you think? I like them but not for my Audi but for the RX-7.

Those are very nice! If they'd fit, and were a bit less, I'd look into a set... Only issue is theft...

Yeah, I didn't even think about fitment. I was just thinking seats are seats. Theft wouldn't be much of an issue for me because I don't really drive it anywhere.

And I would get the black suede….if I was to get them.

what did you do to the stock passenger side slider - the one that hooks up on the bell housing side?
