the seats have been around since 95 (in FDs), and there is also an FC version. They aren't all exactly the same.
are the rails universal? I don't know - but if we can clarify what year FD (or FC) they came from - then that won't be an issue.

lol.
I'll quote myself...
I'll quote myself...
I did a pricing session at mazda at the weekend and got a current quote on some of the seat parts.
I say 'some' of the parts - as they've annoyingly split the seats into individual parts (with the older versions, you could buy them as a complete set) - in other words, if you want a seat, you have to buy all the individual pieces and put it all together. There are 40 or so parts.
I couldn't be bothered pricing it all out, so I just priced the 4 main sections of the actual seat - shell, main cover, upper pad, butt bad...
These came to a total (inc tax) of 391,545yen. @today's rate, that's US$3,496.
Once you bought the other 35 or so parts, you can guarantee it would be well over US$4k before shipping, etc.

no recaro seats sell for 200$. i was saying there not worth 200$ cause i can get new recaro seats just like those for about 600$.. i forget what the seats are called but they look just like the RZ seats but with out the seatbelt strap on the side.

Thanks,

heres a link for the seats, pole position. there pretty damn close to the RZ seats. the RZ rails would have to be modified to the seats tho which isnt a big deal. im not sure if there made in carbon fiber but that doesnt matter to me because i make my own CF parts..

the RZ seat is carbon/kevlar - you can pick it up with your little finger.
big, big difference.

i never said 200 for a new seat. i can make it in carbon fiber, not dry but i will vacuum bag it which will make it stronger.. dry is no stronger then a vacuum bagged part.
