Hey, looking to see what your guys have out there in terms of seats.

I have fitted in some aftermarket seats by removing the stock rails and doing a bit of welding to get the new seats on.

What are you guys running? Post pics maybe?

Looking for a set of seats a little bigger then what I got, and nice and low.

Recaro Speed
they are very low mounted. Almost on the floor. I'm a tall and big guy, so it's perfect for me. Quiet not entertaining for small co passengers :>



don't worry the interior gets all black in a few weeks and Takatas are already here

Are there any aftermarket seats that are more comfortable than the stock? If so I havent found any. I actually love the stock seats although heavy but comfortable for long rides. I entertained the idea of supra tt seats but after I sat in them that made me love the stock ones even more. All others felt like sitting on bricks. So uncomfortable and hurt my hemmroids. . Lol

I find mine more comfy than the stock seats. They are soft but hold you well. I love them and swap them in every car I own

your likely not to find any seats more comfortable then stock.

I want new seats as the OEM seats do not hold me in when cornering, and I want my seats to be lower to the ground.

did you use after-market rails or make your own?

aftermarket rail and I cut off the original mounting points from the stock seat frame and welded them on the rails.

They work well with the car also. Sit lower, lighter, very comfortable, and a pretty close match to the factory leather. They also look really cool from the rear window.
