time has come for me to purchase an seat (just driverside) for my fd!!!! yeah.....
please put in your 2cents in on which is the best seat(s) one can buy for the FD.

With the following key points

1. style---all bling
2. Plug and play----easy on install with brackets******no cutting no welding please
3. functionality
4. $$$$$$$$$$$$ not a factor.

thanks all

 

...emphasize #2, because that, most likely, will be the deciding factor.

 

Recaros from the later model FDs reupholstered with panda skin, ballin!!

 

Are you looking for a reclinable or fixed seat?

 

Mahjik--- there you are!!!! yes for got to mention reclinables are a must. just been having a hard time in figuring out from what i like and what actually can be considered plug and play.

 

^Best bet Mikey. I'm switching to those eventually. The Sparco Evo seats were a BITCH to get in. Plus, Bride offers super low rails for their seats.

 

Thanks Archie for your two cents. I've been banging my head over this upgrade for some time and have held off on it but, I am just in need or in want of 2nd and third opinions on this matter.

I know for a fact from the reports and threads this is considered on of the main choice for plug and play!!!! just want to make sure.

 

Get some JDM Recaro RZ seats like me Mike. Plug n play n u won't have to mess with custom rails.

 

yo Gene---- those are pure porno!!!! the first time i saw them in your car "i felt a warm tingling sensation in my pants!!!!! the only issue is see is where and who has them new and not all jacked up!!!!

 

+1000 on JDM Recaro RZ seats, their is not a better choice. You can contact fdnewbie, he can get them for you, I believe he charges roughly $3000. Which i believe will be a lit bit more expensive then the brides you posted above once you have to buy rails and racing harness.

 

i said. u go with the Bride Gias lowmax . plug and play just like what u want. ( reclinable)

 

already have a 5 point belt ready, will only look to use 4 points and the rails for the seats comes with them for 1600

 

what u pay is what u get.... or u can buy a similar on.. that from EBAY.

 

werd +1

 

I left out the Recaros because he said he wanted recline- ability.

 

you can "tilt" the whole seat but not recline it.

 

True true... I'm not hatin'! I'd love a pair of seats!!

 

Although they are nice seats and they are oem, I wouldn't pay $3800 for beat up and worn out seats, sorry

I've sat in rz seats btw.

 

Here's a good thread to check out:

MemoryFab also has a nice seat:

Bride makes some good seats, no doubt. IMO, they are a little pricey for what you get. There is also F1Spec:

I just don't see the point putting seats in a car in which the seats are going to be worth more than the motor.

 

I have only seen two sets on here and one in person, all brought over from ramy at close to $3000, not 3800. None of them were beat up or worn, i dont know where they got their seats from but they shouldnt be beat up.

I just realized that I have never seen you say you actually liked an item, haha dont know if thats a good or bad thing.

 

I like work vsxx rims, I like 99 spec fronts, I like your double din

I guess I should say I wouldn't pay that much for "used" seats... that's just me though

I agree with mahjik

 

A lot of parts are worth more than the motor...

 

Mazdaspeed Type-F

 

Mahjik--- your motor is worth more than 1600 LOL come on you know this!!!!!!!

 

mahjik---- great links thanks!!! as usual
