S2000 or EVO MR Seats in S13?? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

RD_240 · 02-17-2010, 10:32 AM

So i was searching around and have found many people uses different seats.

I've been searching for S14/R32 seats locally, but no luck.

I have access to both S2k and EVO MR seats and would like to use either or.. i know that the EVO sits a bit higher than stock..

Anyone with some insight on the S2K Seats? If not, i'm just going to keep on hunting down S14 ones.

S14_Kouki · 02-17-2010, 11:58 AM

Both are really nice seats. If I had the choice i would prob do some evo seats.

93nismo · 02-17-2010, 12:12 PM

ive never sat in an evo. but s2k seats are nice. id like some for my whip.

RD_240 · 02-17-2010, 12:53 PM

Well here was a member selling his that said it sat a bit high..

I have stock leather in my S14 and they are pretty nice. I have sat in both EVO and S2K, I would have to say go with S2K out of the two.

sokodu · 02-17-2010, 01:02 PM

I would say go with the evo seats...they have a little lower bolster but the suede in the center definitely holds you better...plus i think they look better

pinkarrowsnow · 02-17-2010, 03:13 PM

i have evo seats in my car pm me ill send some pics and help ya out.

blackej7 · 02-17-2010, 03:36 PM

evo seats hands down. very supportive/comfortable.

Kouki_monstr · 02-17-2010, 04:04 PM

evo's are recaro's (oviously) so i would say deff evo seats..BUT i do like the s2000 seats, i use to own an s2000. i was thinking of getting an s2000 seat for my passenger seat since i already have a bride driver seat. That way i dont have to worry about having a bride in the passenger seat lol

Kouki_Love · 02-17-2010, 04:16 PM

evo seats for sure.. save the s2k seats for the civics hatchs.. lol

Perfect Balance · 02-17-2010, 04:28 PM

I have Evo seats in my car, had to make custom brackets for it, and even pretty much mounted on the floor it still sits a bit high. You get used to it in a few days but initially it feels weird.

S14Serge · 02-17-2010, 07:03 PM

Well looks like its unanimous Evo MR seats ftmw!

datboibrad · 02-17-2010, 08:02 PM

i know it wasnt mentioned but i like the sti seats far better than either s2000 or evo. after a 5 hour drive in an evo and a 14 hour round trip drive in a sti, the evo seats left me feeling like ass while the sti seats where far more forgiving.

nate00 · 02-17-2010, 11:55 PM

but the sti seats say "STi" on em, and they only come in blue.

Chrischeezer · 02-18-2010, 12:09 AM

what do u need them for?
i think your going to sit way too high with a evo recaro seat, the s2k is much lower profile.
if your going for functionality i would look at a aftermarket seat.

1 piece bride seat ftw..
light weight, low, strong and you can feel the car through your butt.. its hard to explain

REVGASM · 02-18-2010, 12:37 AM

i have an s2000 seat for passenger.

I just want something to replace my current seats... The driver's side is crooked and i want to have a matching passenger side.

Something comfortable yet sporty.

I have sat in the Brides and I dont like how it feels one bit.

Rev, how hard was it for you to customize the rails and brackets?

lazysk8er2 · 02-18-2010, 07:21 PM

i have evo 9 mr seats in my car i personally hate it they are too bulky in the car and dont feel right. my favorite for daily are the s14 seats or skyline. even 350z seats feel a little beter and are cheap and easy to install with a little effort.

i wound up putting the evo 9 seats in my automatic coup and have stock seats in my sr swapped hatch.

wh0aitznic0 · 02-18-2010, 07:33 PM

I've ridden in S2000's and Evo's alike. Evo seats are DEFINITELY more supportive but since the seats are going in an S13, seat height is what you should be worried about. S2000 seats win in that department IMO. S2000's make you sit on the floor.

fcken_engus · 02-20-2010, 04:13 PM

yeah, evo 9 seats are my favorite, very supportive

Impact Black · 05-20-2010, 07:20 PM

is there no write up on swapping the evo seats into the S13

it's a seat not meant for the car. get some brackets. look where u need to line the holes up and MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Slammed Assassin · 05-20-2010, 08:15 PM

id go for the evo seats.

1on1 · 05-20-2010, 08:15 PM

my friend had to make custom brackets for his. when he had the evo seats, he did sit pretty high, and he's about 5'6.

The Hamsterball · 05-21-2010, 02:57 AM

i've sat in both myself.

the evo seats are much more supportive.
and of course they're made by recaro.

i haven't driven either on a long drive, so i don't know how comfortable they are long term. both are comfortable though.
