hmmm...I was just looking at some of them and they look identicle to the recaros in my Porsche. How come 80's Supra's and Hondas got recaros and FC's didn't? (<-rhetorical question)

Yeah I had a RA64 Celica (GT-S) that had the OEM Recaros...
Because the Recaro seat package in the RA and MA Toyota's was an $1000 option package back in '82-84.
And I have never ever seen a Honda come with a Recaro from the factory. A couple of the 'ludes came with Recaro knock offs, but anyone that looked at the frame, could see that they were not real Recaros.

The CRX Si's had a recaro package, and a couple other rare examples. It wasn't something all too common. Toyota seemed to make the biggest play off recaros. Type R's have them, but they're a little more recent. I just always thought it was odd...
I can tell you I'm trying to find a way to mount either my 944 Recaros in a seven or M3 Vaders....

My 944's are all manual...
...they weigh the same as FC base model seats (I checked). The 944 came with a power driver's seat...I have a couple of pass. side seats. They're very comfortable.
Vader seats are stupid heavy...they weigh more than my MKIII's seats...

I was not aware that the passenger seats were manual... I guess all the 944's I was in, I was only the driver.

Yeah...the base 944's only had a power driver's seat. I'm not all that impressed in them over what I can find in a GTU or something...but they're a lot better than what's in base model S4's and such.
