Which seats would you want, or just like in general. Im a Bride Brix (the old school one) kindqa guy...you?

fastpace · 01-16-2004, 10:28 AM

stock seats are fine with me.

fogleroller · 01-23-2004, 01:13 AM

i like my S14 seats, very comfy!

**West** · 01-23-2004, 02:25 AM

Recaro for me. Of course I have yet to sit in anything but s14 and Pep Boys brand racing seats

Dousan_PG · 01-23-2004, 09:28 AM

bride cuz its one of the best
my second would be tie between recaro and sparco

Levi@GTPRO · 01-23-2004, 11:34 AM

I like bride seats the one in dousan's car is very comfortable.
A close second would be recaro's. I dont like sparco to much i used to have a pair in my rex but not my taste.

huevos · 01-23-2004, 11:42 AM

The only seat I have sat in was a nex non-reclinable. I thought it felt great. Going by looks I would have to say Bride Brix

RearWheel · 02-09-2004, 10:10 PM

stock so I can kinda recline.. I've sat in Recaros and they are ok.. but I like to move around.. I've sat in Brides and I couldn't stand getting out of that sucker and you couldn't recline. I need room to move around a bit especially when my car is also a daily driver.. stocks are comfy...

Flybert · 02-11-2004, 02:36 AM

RearWheel: My bride brixes recline. You were probably sitting in a bucket or you've probably never used recaro style reclinable turn knobs.

RearWheel · 02-11-2004, 12:12 PM

I guess not... I HATE RECLINABLE TURN KNOBS!!! They are such a pain.. which is also a reason why I hate Volkswagens..

TiNMAN · 02-23-2004, 12:44 AM

i like skyline seats, especially r32 gtr seats. they feel really nice and look good too.

Pudula · 03-25-2004, 12:43 AM

Brides suck for me...yeah they're tight, but I'm 6'4", and Bride's target market little Japanese people - doesn't work out. I'd go Recaro.

Ryan

Brian · 03-25-2004, 03:00 PM

bride brix is okay, but i think i like the bride maxis better. i have to give the maxis a real test though.

Shin_Kudo · 03-30-2004, 02:47 AM

I like Brides, a bit tight though. I hear that they're starting to make larger ones intended for the export market, though.

I like the SE seats in my 14, but they can't go up straight enough, and they are a little too high, so I'll be getting a bucket.

Who the hell voted for APC? I've tried those seats. They provide no side support whatsoever. My stock seats are much better.

ARSmotoRsports · 03-30-2004, 07:16 AM

I too am 6'4" and around 200lbs. my car isn't a daily driver, but i like to recline. i'm having a lot of trouble choosing a seat as most either don't fit the car or don't fit me. i like to recline and don't have a back seat... any suggestions?

I got eye on these Jic's....

http://www.sportcompactcarweb.com/pr...projectsilvia/

About $600 a piece.

cali240sxdrifter · 03-30-2004, 12:49 PM

wheres a good place to get Recaro Speed seats?

Ghettokracker71 · 05-18-2004, 11:42 AM

Holy shit JIC seats

...I was going to say that sparcos looked the coolest until I saw those! Wow! I haven't really sat in any racing seats,so I don't know

I wish seats weren't so damned expensive. Just get the APC seats and have "sparco" put over it

EDIT:I can't afford damn 600$ just for seats!!! Thats ridiculous. I can't think of any other racing seat I could afford but the APC ones,I want to change my stock S13 ones....

Dousan_PG · 05-18-2004, 07:48 PM

the jic ones suck
they fall apart
ive seen it first hand
and waaaay too cushy.

Ghettokracker71 · 05-18-2004, 08:16 PM

Then what is a decent quality AFFORDABLE seat thats not too tall (for a 240sx)

Ricer240sx · 05-18-2004, 08:54 PM

i voted Bride, but if i were building a German car(i will have an A4 or S4 one day!!!!! lol and my porsche too

) i would use Recaro just cause there a German co. likewise im puting Japanese seats in my 240

idk, i jsut think that the best parts come from home!!

Dousan_PG · 05-18-2004, 11:21 PM

recaro is badasss. super high quality and usually pretty decently priced. ive sene new SRDs in the 500 price range (no rails---get the JDM ones, they sti like bride ones...and bride reclineable DOES NOT fit recaro--ive tried)

Sirikool · 05-18-2004, 11:56 PM

lmao, nice avatar ARS

MadScientist · 05-19-2004, 09:33 AM

I think I have sat my narrow ass in almost every seat made... personally, I dunno what seats to get away from a Business stand point.

Bride is the Top JDM Seat, along with AAR, but both are totaly different... Reclinable would have to be Bride, Bucket is where I am lost on these 2 companies.

Recaro is the Europen Manufactures Choice, much like Brembo is to Brakes. Recaro also DOMINATES Sparco... Yes, Sparco sells because of the cheep price, and I would rather see someone with Sparco than APC, Tenzo, TrashCans, etc...! Beside that Recaro is Never discriminated against in any country, so you can have Recaro in your JDM, USDM, or EDM... eather way Recaro = World Wide Super Pimp!!

The ROMAN · 05-19-2004, 11:08 AM

Anyone deal with Megan Racing seats?

FastBack 240 · 05-28-2004, 09:54 PM

I am going to have to say I like my stock 350z's cause the others never really tested them out and sparco pinchs my ass.

shinhed · 06-01-2004, 10:12 PM

Let's see these 350z seats in your car.

FastBack 240 · 06-01-2004, 11:12 PM

Do you not believe me or do you just want to see them in my car? Cause I havnt put them in yet but I can take a pic of one in my friends s13 cause as it is right now he doesnt have his passenger seat in but hes to lazy to take his driver seat out to.
