i fink ish al about quality for sure,. ish stuff like wats inside the seat not only the material to cover it.. stuff like support and material and weight is something to consider too... :D
and also how much yo wanna spent! rails and all :thumbsup: :rolleyes:
tru dude, they are real tight across the shoulders, i guess they are only good for real small people. I am a pretty small bloke with small sholders so they are real good for me. but i guess if u got a bit of size on ya then they prolly wont be :(
either way they just take getting use to as well

Recaro's are engineered to be strong and all stress points are reinforced. They have extreme quality control, as well as various certifications. They might be expensive, but these are worth the money. These seats are made with form and function in mind.Quote:

Interesting....I'm not that big, nor broad...yet I really had problems squeezing my shoulders in between the shoulder bolsters. Plus the fact that my waist area got no support whatsoever cos the side bolsters were a lot further apart made things very weird...but anyhow, thanks for confirming that for me! :)Quote:

so they should all be safe enough in a crash, not real point spending more that 4x the cost to get the name "recaro" on ur seats... IMO
If theyre sold in autobahn and stuff they should be shouldn't they?
Or is that just wishful thinking that a well known and established franchise would not sell something that wouldn't be ADR approved?
you guys know where uMM shift performance center ish they have nice imo bucks seat and its cheap... check out teh site www.shiftperformance.com.au

The difference b.w recaros and other branded seats compared to non-branded seats is the quality and comfort.
the better one normallly come with a better more sturdier flip mechanism (at the shoulders for recaros and some brides).
Recaro sr's are really heavy in weight. But are really comfortable for long trips when u compare them to rexy recaros
Hey Surrufus,
I have sets of brand new recliner seats for sale that come in 4 different models.
I just sold a pair to a guy yesterday who has a Civic just like you.
The seats are from $750 a pair including rails depending on model. They are almost a direct bolt in for Civics. You can have a look at the seats in the guys civic if you are interested as we also installed them yesterday .
I am also putting a set in my car next week which you may have seen, the orange NGH WRX, it will be at the rexpo car show if you want to look at the seats there. My girlfriend owns a black S2000 and I used to own a Civic myself and that is why I am on the forum.
You can contact me via email on selectac@iinet.net.au or call us on 0405 060 134
Thanks Nat.
i had some older type recaros, didnt know wat the model was but pl still have it in their drift cars in japan, yeh they hug u in well, and i think u pay for the quality and reliability....and obvios the brand name RECARO, they were reclinable too, so i guess if u want reclinable with big name brans, its gonna b expensive but u pay for what u get
