The HTE-R 400 racing seat is for you if you want maximum performance in a limited space.
With its narrower upper design, it’s ideal for tight cockpits or slimmer drivers without compromising safety or comfort.
The rigid fibreglass shell and built-in head support deliver solid protection, while the high-profile side bolsters keep you locked in through sharp turns.
Breathable AIRTEX fabric, removable cushions, and adjustable lumbar support mean long stints stay comfortable.
HANS compatibility and support for 4, 5, or 6-point harnesses round out a seat made to race.
A seat that fits right makes all the difference in how you drive.
The OMP HTE-R racing seat is shaped to support waists up to 36 inches.
That snug fit helps maintain posture, especially under hard braking and fast cornering.
You won’t waste energy bracing yourself lap after lap.
Instead, the seat holds you where you need to be, so your focus stays on the race and not on adjusting your position.
You don’t need to sacrifice fit to stay protected in your seat.
The HTE-R 400 racing seat features built-in head support that gives you serious protection without forcing a bulky or awkward fit.
It’s padded right where you need it, hugging your head without limiting movement or sightlines.
That means more confidence through tight corners and high-speed runs.
You stay focused on the drive while the seat handles your safety.
Sharp turns, sudden weight shifts, full-throttle exits—this seat holds you through it all.
The HTE-R 400 racing seat supports you through all that with high-profile side bolsters that help you stay planted, not sliding.
These bolsters give you real lateral support where it counts, especially when you’re pushing hard through corners.
Less movement means more control, more consistency, and more confidence behind the wheel.
It keeps you locked in, so your lines stay tight.
Heat builds fast when you're pushing limits, but the HTE-R 400 racing seat keeps you cool when it counts.
Fully wrapped in breathable AIRTEX material, it’s built to handle long stints and high heat without soaking you in sweat.
The fabric pulls moisture away from your body, helping you stay dry and focused.
No sticking, no slipping—just steady comfort when the pressure climbs.
It’s the kind of detail that separates a solid race from a brutal one.
Every driver’s body is different, and the HTE-R 400 racing seat gets that right.
With removable and adjustable cushions in the back, base, and legs, you’re not stuck with a one-size-fits-all feel.
You can fine-tune your seating setup so pressure points don’t become distractions mid-race.
Shift a pad, add support, or take it out altogether—it’s your call.
This level of comfort means less strain, better control, and more time focusing on what matters: the race.
The HTE-R 400 racing seat is fully HANS-compatible and built to handle 4, 5, or 6-point harness systems without a fight.
Slot placement is dialled in for clean fitment, so everything lines up and stays secure when it matters most.
That means better posture and a setup you don’t have to second-guess.
Absolutely. With removable and adjustable cushions in the back, base, and legs, you can fine-tune the fit for your body. That means less pressure build-up and more focus during long sessions behind the wheel.
Yes, the seat is built to comfortably accommodate drivers with waist sizes up to 36 inches. You won’t feel crammed in, but you also won’t be sliding around.
Yes, and that’s actually one of its biggest strengths. The upper section is narrower than standard seats, making it perfect for tight spaces without sacrificing safety or comfort.
No problem at all. The HTE-R 400 is fully HANS-compatible and has properly placed slots to support 4, 5, or 6-point harnesses. Everything lines up clean, so you’re safe and secure.
You’re getting a rigid fibreglass shell with integrated head support and high side bolsters. It’s FIA 8855-1999 approved, so protection is a core part of the design.
Not likely. The entire seat is wrapped in breathable AIRTEX material, which helps manage heat and moisture so you stay cool and dry under pressure.
It’s side-mounted. That gives you better adjustability in a race setup and helps keep the seat rock solid under heavy load and hard driving.

If you’ve clicked on this tab, you’re obviously looking for a reason or two on why you should shop for your gaming goodies at Gamer Gear Direct, rather than those other online stores.
And we’ll (not so) humbly say there are SEVEN reasons we think you should shop with us and not hand over your hard-earned cash at one of those big box retailers like Harvey Norman or JB Hi-Fi.
We’ll bend over backwards to ensure you are 100% happy and satisfied with your order and our world-class customer service. We want you to rave about your experience with us to your friends and family.
But we know that’ll only happen if we treat every customer like you’re the most important customer in the world. And you are! Without you we wouldn’t be in this business. We’ve only got to where we are today by treating our customers to a high level of service that you’ll rarely find online.
We’ll literally bend over backwards to ensure your experience with us is one you’ll shout about to your neighbour or mates at work. See, we’re not one of those big box electronics stores with a multi-million marketing budget. Those companies treat you like a number. Because they can afford to! They’ve got money coming out of their ears.
We’re different. We’re a small Aussie owned and operated business. Every single potential customer that hits our website is precious to us (that includes you). So, again, we’ll do everything we can to make sure you’re over the moon with your Gamer Gear Direct shopping experience.
Do you think Harvey Norman can promise that kind of service?
Probably not. In fact, I’d bet my house they won’t. But look, you don’t have to take my word for it. Here’s what our customers are saying about us…
Ashley Woolnough says: ‘I want to say a huge thank you to Blake and the team at Gamer Gear Direct. The service has been absolutely impeccable from the moment I first looked at items to the moment they were delivered. I bothered Blake quite a bit, but nothing was too much trouble and he went above and beyond to help me. 5-star service’.
Luke H. had this to say: ‘Amazing, Excellent Service. I'm very impressed. Well informed staff and good quality selection of Sim Racing gear. Staff even went above and beyond to answer a query regarding whether a certain set of pedals would properly mount to a specific cockpit by testing it themselves on my behalf. Delivery is ridiculous fast and free. Less than 24 hour delivery to Sydney NSW which is impressive. Definitely my go to place for all future gear'.
And this from Brendan: ‘Hands down the best online supplier in Australia atm. Customer service is above an beyond any other Australian company. Blake is always happy to try an keep the customer as happy as possible an with the best deal. I will be back...a forever shop and first stop when hunting any sim upgrade.’
That’s not an exhaustive list, either. There are plenty more happy customer stories we could share with you. But let’s move on to reason number two…
We’re around to support you and help you out with your questions and queries between normal business hours (Mon to Fri, 9am to 5pm).
We understand a lot of our customers (like you) are busy individuals.
Sometimes, you’ve only got time to peruse our website when you’re sitting down on the couch, chilling out after a hard day at work (maybe with a cold beverage in hand).
If you need a hand with anything, or you’ve got a question. Just tap on the live chat widget (at the bottom right of screen), email us (support@gamergeardirect.com.au) or call on (03) 9961 0240.

On top of our 30-day return policy, you’re also covered by a manufacturers’ warranty. Every product we sell is covered by a MINIMUM 6-month warranty (most are covered by a 1 year or better warranty).
When you buy from us, you’re buying top quality, brand name products (no crap ‘grey import’ products here), that’ll do exactly what they say on the box.
You'll find more details on our return policy HERE.
That doesn’t mean we’ll always beat the competition on price. Some of the big-name stores bulk up big time on products. We’re still competitive, but may not have the margin to beat them.
That aside, our prices are easily some of the cheapest you’ll find online. Plus, when you bundle several items together, we’re more than happy to chat about a bundle discount
Hit us up and we’ll chat more about price (you can open the chat widget at the bottom right of screen and start a conversation).
When you’re shopping online, you want your order delivered fast, right? We understand. That’s why 99% of our orders are shipped within one to two business days from the time you order.

You can track your order the entire time, too. As soon as your order is on the way we’ll send you an email with tracking details, so you can keep your eye on where your order is the entire time.
Of course, if you have any questions or queries about your order simply email or call us and we’ll help you in any way we can.
Nothing worse than buying something online and it’s faulty, right?
We feel you.
That’s exactly why every item we stock is covered by a minimum 6-month warranty.
If the product you ordered from us doesn’t work right, simply return it to us and we’ll get it fixed for you under warranty.
Or if we can’t have it fixed, we’ll provide you with a replacement item as soon as possible.
Our shopping cart is fitted with SSL encryption.
What the hell does that mean, you ask?
Well, that simply means all your data is 100% secure when you shop on the Gamer Gear Direct website.
We don’t save or share any of your payment details. Nor are those precious details stored anywhere on our website.
So, there you have it. There are our 7 big reasons on why you should buy all your sim goodies from us and not the competition.
