ok guys its that time. old interior MUST go.

after saying that...

what type of seats should I go with? remember it NEEDS to hold me in place.

noobs need not to reply here. this thread is for people who has knowledge in this.

 

lawn chairs.

/thread

 

brides or sparcos ftw

 

but serously, I like Recaros, hey really hold you in, Ive sat in a friend's Corbeau full bucket, and its great, for the smaller guys, im sure there are bigger ones but this one hugged me. . . my Recaro SRD is good on me too, it feels good to sit in

 

brides are 1200 each.

and to the lawn comment: It apppears your reading skills isn't your strong point.

 

you can find some decent 2nd hand seats for a decent price, I got my SRD for 400 bucks in PERFECT condition, they retail usually for twice that

 

Are you racing this shit or just chillin in it? If just driving, id say try those RSX seats, they look good as hell. you'd need to custom fab it though.

 

rsx seats are for noobs, ITR recaros ftw!

 

well... both... track and cruising

I wasent really into getting used brides but ill deff look into that. the problem I see myself running into is knowing if its real or not....

 

what about recaro SPEED seats?

 

gotta google that when I get home... I'm making fiberglass stock go up rite now... lol I'm buying the mats n lots of resin...

 

my reading skills is my strong point

subject-verb agreement ftw

 

I've had my eye on a set of Recaros for a long time. We had some at my old shop and they were ridiculously comfortable and fit me well. Just don't have the money, so I've been checking eBay every few days for a set of cheaper used ones. I'm just worried about getting a fake set; the last thing I need is to get killed because my seat fell apart in an accident.

Do you have pictures of your custom interior as it is? I dug up some of your old threads but all the pictures are broken.

 

Recaros are the only way to go

 

shnee u geek! lol

I have pics but aint home...

and I'm scared of fakes also... that's why u for wat u get... oh btw: bride can hold up to 220lbs... I'm 230 go figure

 

Get recaro molded cf recaro's

 

I'm waiting until I can afford the real deal through a reputable place. Let me know when you get the pics up, I need a little inspiration.

 

these were already up... ahm lets see.. first time getting something custom and i learnt alot - BE CAREFUL! I didnt take care of it and u can tell things werent looking good afterwards, so my current cl will be crazy!!!...

 

eh fook it, ill save up for the gians...

 

go for some s2k seats i got some on right now

 

pics? how much did u pay? how do they look in the interior?

 

ill take pics when i get the passenger side on. i only have the driver side on right now.i paid about $500 for the 06's seats. they look pretty nice. looks way better than the stock seats.

 

they are nice, but not the looking im going for...

 

I dunno about Brides, but I know how to spot real recaros vs, the fakes, I can share if you want

 

I can vouch for those, theyre basically identical to my SRD, just the replacement under a new name, and im pretty sire its the same style Recaros that ate in the JDM ITRs

 

hell I figure ill just go and say it now, since ive got nothing better to do, this is for the Recaro reclinables (specifically the SRD, and im sure the speed as well, since I did ALOT of research on them before I went and met the guy to buy mine), im sure the race buckets are more-or-less the same, but here goes


1) the reclining knob should be a triagle with rounded out sides/faces. . . kinda like the shape of a rotary motor's rotor except more rounded at the edges

2) the release knobs (to flip the seat forwards to let people into the back) on the sides should have RECARO stamped into them, it should be on both knobs

3) down on the part of the reclining knob, there should appear something with the trademarks, "Keiper Recaro GMBH&CO" something along those lines

4) on the bottom, Recaros have a piece of brown webbed material with black rubber supporting strips, suspended by metal hooks on the seat sides, with the cushion on that, there should be no signs of plywood or anything like that

5) there should be 3 hardened bolt points on either side for mounting to a slider, the front two should be 1" apart, and there will be a third on the back, 9" down from the closest other bolt point




worse comes to worse, you just take the serial number, and call it into Recaro for verification, but if that option isnt available, take the above steps

if you want I can post pics of the stuff im talking about later

 

Don't be afraid to be different...I say go with Status They make some KILLER stuff, and their seats start at $450 each, which isn't horrible. Check here for some pics:

If you want to go cheaper, look into some Momos, I've always like their stuff. And if you can find a set, I second the ITR Recaros They're gorgeous.

 

Stätus doesn't offer anything below $595 right now according to their price list... although if you can find them I think their older styles were cheaper.

MOMOs are also nice, not quite as comfortable as the Recaros though.

 

go to a junkyard and get some bmw seats.

weld the rails from the beem.

i love the seats in the newer models.

everything else is too sporty for our car...

i mean really... i beat a hyundai yesterday and then got spanked by a old benz.

 

bmw seats is a great idea if you can find them without paying an arm or a leg, I'd love to get some black leather m3 or m5 seats

 

M3 seats FTW.

 

There's a set of black Sparco's on eBay for under $700 shipped. I wish I had the money for them.

 

4th gen prelude seats.

 

a friend of mine had some recaros in his 911 turbo. if youve got the money, theres no other way to go. i have never sat in such a comfortable seat in my entire life.

 

2 RSX seats up front. and then 2 in the back. yes ive seen it on an accord.

 

U talkin bout that tan accord on honda-tech?

 

the interior is tan, car is green.

 

im lookin for seats too right after a quick suspension technique upgrade

 

 

oof i was wondering if he'd catch this
