Recaro type RZ carbon-kevlar oem seats

Ramy,
I'm desperately looking for those seats, I tried contacting you via email a month ago, but you didn't respond. are they available? I know it is very hard to find them.
I also posted on the cf dash kit group buy. if I can get them both it'd be great...

actually, if I can order from you, I'll throw in some other parts that I've seen on your website and I definately want them. I have the money waiting, if you talk to me, we can do bussiness.
I'm talking about a 4-5K order and I'm not fooling around. for shipping please bare in mind that I leave in europe.

Regards
Sergio

Can you answer his question about the rails? Im curious myself. I've been told that the rails don't sit in the stock position.

I have a pair of these that I sourced from Ramy...............

The RZ seat rails have a built in tilt feature. Since the seats have a fixed seat back this allows you to adjust the seat back angle. Direct bolt in with seatbelt buckle that slides with the seat like the 93-95 seat.

The rails are a low profile, giving you a little more headroom. You could probably use washers, duct tape & lag bolts to adapt the 93-95 seat rails to the RZ seats, but they are going to be spaced higher. Even if the your 93-95 seat rails can be made to fit the RZ seats, I wouldn't use them.

Normally the RZ & Spirit R seats will include the rails.
If not, you should get a major discount. The seat rails, by themselves, are a bitch to find.

I only have the tilt on the drivers and not on the passenger. It looks like someone got an aftermarket rail to drop the seat even further (for the RHD guys).

and I wish I would have gotten a discount!

As Sled Driver said, the rails are bolt on, and come w/ the seats. They are EXTREMELY difficult to source, and are quite expensive to buy new (on the order of well over a grand). That's why I have a disclaimer about the seats that my priority is to source and sell to you guys the best condition SEATS. The rails, however, are a "you get what you get" kinda deal. I can't promise you'll get the tilt function on either or both seats (it was an option, not a standard function). I even have a seat here and there w/o any rails, which can be used w/ the OEM rails, as is mentioned too. So bottom line is, I do my best to get the best SEATS, cuz trust me, that's hard enough to find as it is. If we wanna staggard seats w/ and w/o rails + the tilt function, the price would go up, cuz it would take MUCH longer to find, AND may involve buying multiple seats to piece together a set of seats w/ matching rails...
