I had integra seats in my truck, one thing to keep in mind, these tracks are flat and weren't designed for tranny humps so new tracks are a must.

The driver's side is pretty straightforward (note: this is not the same as "easy"), the passenger side can be a bitch.
If the Integra seats are anything like CRX seats, it can be a lot more involved than it first appears.
Are the Integra bases flat on the bottom?

See Aaron Cake's last "Tina" writeup for a nicely photographed seat install.

i dont have a integra in my local area i can get seat measurements off of. so my question does make since to ask. i know a guy in japan right now who can get me a set of seats dirt cheap.. i wasn't worried about the driverside as much as i was the passanger side cause one of the tracks is just so strange compared to most.

note for those who dont know the integra R seats and recaro's Speed S seat.

Naw I'm pretty sure that the integra seats are too wide. But you can double check the measurements

the question was worded badly. it should have been.
"i have a great deal on a set of Recaro Speed S seats out of a 96 integra R now i haven't had anyluck finding rails to fit these seats in an FC anyone know here to get a set or if anyone has modified the stock rails to run these seats without putting them too high?"

Now I'm not 100% sure but i have a set of recaro's in my car that are reclinable and look the same as that. So I would be guessing that you can get rails for them

Get the seats 'dirt cheap', then sell them to some JDM fanboy for 10x more. Then buy some seats that are meant for the car.

I'm pretty sure they are just Recaro Speed seats. I'm pretty sure I've seen them in a few cars here on the forum, but not from an Integra in particular. If they are the same I don't see why they wouldn't fit, but if they are different, then I'd ask for measurements and stuff like that.

you are probably right TTT i think i will just save the money till i get $950 and buy a set of new Recaco Speed seats from the local porsche shop.


quesytion if i had made the thread name "Recaro Spead seat rails?" instead of 96 spec integra R seats and posed the question as:
"ok i know these seats have been done before but i cant seem to find any rails for them does anyone have a link to a set of rails for both passanger and driver sides, or a link to awriteup on modifying the stock rails to fit?"
would you have jumped all down my thout like you did?



anyone have rails for the passanger i know someone who has driver side rails but the pasanger side is worrying me cause that inside rail is weird.

Thread cleaned up. Crap may be acceptable in the Lounge, but not here.

If his question offends you greatly, then just don't post. Keep the thread clean or infractions/bannings will ensue.
