I suppose the cost of getting them to Cairns would be scary.
The Mazdaspeed seats are a little more supportive than WRX seats. They suit a smaller frame i guess, but it really depends on how wide your hips are. They're not quite as tight as Recaro SR3s.

I've never seen brackets for the BJ, and sourcing some for BJ isn't possible now that the seats have been discontinued. But they could easily be fabricated as they're a pretty simple design, or it may be possible to adapt part of your existing rail.

I've shipped some to Nate in QLD before for around $120, if memory serves correctly.
