SId, the only age restriction is that if it is FIA rated, and it's out-dated (more than 5 years), it needs a back brace. I'm not sure how comfortable I'd be with a fiberglass seat with a a seat brace.

Any non-FIA rated seat needs a back brace.

Just so I understand. When would you used back brace?

My OMP pista seat came in and it was to small. I need
to find a larger seat. I found a 2006 pro racer recaro
xl for sale.

How much is the seat?

You can get a full containment seat from ButlerBuilt for about $500. It is built to fit your body measurements and gives you shoulder support and a halo.
