buh anywayz continue with the poll

thanx

[skinnyboy]

err where can these be bought from?

[AE092]

voted black, prefer the red stitching. How much you paying for these? And are they ADR/FIA approved? just wondering

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

err where can these be bought from?

The ones pictures would be coming from US ebay

IMO better to spend the money and get some Just Crap ones (there pretty much the same)


paying for these? And are they ADR/FIA approved? just wondering

As above

There about 200-300 a pair USD shipped i think

no there not ADR/FIA approved (to my knowledge)

[EG3B16]

I say black... will go well with the red body! ...

[ojaii]

soooo BLACK FTW?!! :)

[aimre]

i heard these fakes are pretty uncomfortable. they have like a hard pole in your back

[mars_panas]

Black would look nice.... your cars red u don't want to much red and plus the red replicas look plain... i love the black with red stitching

dats my pesonal taste though....

[Euro08Jaz]

dude go all red! got to keep with the theme than re upholster in red leather, would look awesome!

[Crapdaz]

Black ftw, contrast rather than matching....

[SiReal]

black is the best. better to be subtle than loud and obnoxious (theft attracting)

[latinstyle69]

go black cos the red stichin will match and wont look over the top

[mojo the flashy monkey]

i suggest that you go pink ok la!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hisoka]

how much do these go for ??, you getting rails awswell ?

[ojaii]

around 300-400 yea rails included

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

Universal rails?

[hisoka]

holy shiet 300 to 400 be careful man at the quality lol~the rails might be dodgey

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

holy shiet 300 to 400 be careful man at the quality lol~the rails might be dodgey

IMO the rails would be the last thing id be worrying about with seats...

If you go through NS you will see why Just Jap (i mean...Just Crap) ones are said not to be good

[hisoka]

thanks shogun will check it out right now~

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

If you look on Ebay AU there are fixed back seats (not the best looking) but they are ADR approved and come with universal rails and are to my knowledge 150+shipping each

[hisoka]

thread owner if your short for cash just save for second handies bro~better than copies

[SXC-84K]

dood if ur getting fakes which comes with rails do u even know how much it'll cost to get custom brackets to fit them? im telling u they cost alot...

ull end up spending just as much as genuine ones once u buy the seats + custom brackets

[ojaii]

thread owner if your short for cash just save for second handies bro~better than copies

ahh kz hrmmm.. good ideaa :thumbsup: i mite juz do that
thanx

[hisoka]

probably the cheapest second handies are buddy club ones aye. but rarely anyone want to sell

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

probably the cheapest second handies are buddy club ones aye. but rarely anyone want to sell

if you are after a brand name...

OBX ones (well ones like that) that are ok but not the best looking (and ADR approved) pop up on NS lots

There was a pair in near mint condition sell for $150 and came with universal rails

Buddy club ones come fs second hand once in a while but expect to pay around 500 or so for the seat (keep in mind that is extremely cheap)

[pattyd89]

www.streetstyler.com

they sell the ones on this thread for $235 for the pair. I don't think it includes the shipping cost as well though.

[hisoka]

in America not australia.

imo just keep saving to get real recaro or BC

[pattyd89]

yeh but the currency is bloody good at the moment

[3gFRD]

In a different direction, have you considered the Accord Type R Recaro's from a breaker/scrapyard. They're pretty reasonably priced here and a good garage could most likely modify the Accord and Civic rails to make a factory looking fit.
We've fitted Recaro's from Evo's into EK's before with great results. Alot safer than some of the rails you get with cheap seat too.

yer this guys right aye~did it for a eg with recaros from a evo~look good too

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

If you stick it out you can find a really good deal

its just a case of not "jumping" on crap and holding out for something REALLY good

[hisoka]

thats the way aye~

[RtN]

street stylez told me that they dont ship it to aus as too far and too big lol

[Bludger]

Red would be a bitch to clean.

[hondavti25]

i bought a very simular pair to these and had them installed on thursday last week. I can vouch that there very comftable aye. Every one whos been in them has been happy with them and there not to bad quality wise

We dont get them here.

And you know the quality is good because you have tested them in a series of crash tests???


I would suggest to anyone in this thread to go and buy approved seats. Lots of seats look good from the outside, but unless they have been properly tested there is no way that I would want to be in one in an accident or any other sort of incident. I would much prefer to have stock seats that have been tested than some no name seats that may fold in half or have the brackets break under stress.
The other thing to be mindful of when buying second hand seats is that they havent been in an accident before. There is the potential that they have been structurally weakened so just be careful.

Just to also Elaborate on this

The Just Jap ones are now ADR approved as a mate of mine just picked some up today..

It came with the ADR tag on below and they email you a certificate thing aswell

Leather ones 600 came with Direct EG rails :thumbsup:
