What's wrong with Honda stuff as long as it's quality stuff? I thought about putting those seats in my car as well but they are too expensive at $1000. I'd rather have other aftermarket seats for that price.

Saying something in HONDA's defense.... They were approached by 2f2f to feature there cars as the lead cars and honda declined instantly... Honda's are good commuter cars and they are reliable along with good gas miliage. I had a 95 accord, with all the boltons and a little extra tb polishing ect...it wasn't superfast but pretty fun for a FWD, and i got 33mpgs it had 168k when i sold it and the only thing i replaced was the starter....good car. Screw all you honda haters, dont hate the car hate the people that think 4 door civics are fast...even a heavily modded and Turbo'd street civic can only run even with a stock t2...

People also hate Honda because it makes so many FWD cars.


And myself.. I'd rather get racing seats

i am 6'3", 235(cough) and i fit in an S2000 pretty well. the seats weren't too uncomfortable, basically like newer versions of FC seats (which were designed for little japanese people, anyway )

or why not mold a cockpit around you like an F1 car. If i were you i would invest in some nice better holding recaros or brides. Whats wrong with our seats though? i always thought they hold you pretty good.

I liked my 93 Accord not fast but fun. the only civic I repect is the ONLY 6sec civic (yes there is 1 and only 1) and it's far from streetable. anyway where there's money there's a way Or anything is posable with money.

I dont think unless you have a vert that they would look that good imho but that's just me

U mean, civic body, it doesn't have a civic engine(b16) at least you can get a 13B to 7.58 like Ibarra. Hell there is a GSL-SE 13B with stock internals(2mm seals ect..) pushing 785hp, wow this got off topic. Mazdaformance.com sell brand new TII leather seats for like 650 each.

indeed, hondas are great machines, its hard to ask for a better daily driver/economy car. however, they ARE NOT sports cars (except the s2000). the only reason anyone even get confused about that is because honda made civic's and accords so damn good, its tepmting to think they are more than just well built, fun, everyday cars.
