Hey,

When ever I get my car running I'm thinking of getting aftermarket seats so that I can sit lower in the car and get a little more support. I'm only 6'0 and 175 (waist 34) but most of the JDM seats crushing my hips (trust me I couldn't even get into a few)

So the question is whats the best aftermarket seats that won't crush the my hips and baby makers?

So far I've found the below seats that MIGHT work:

Bride Stradia II Sport Low Max Reclining Seat

Bride Cuga type-HL Reclining Seat

Any other suggestions?

I like the Cuga HL's personally.

Yeah I like how they sit Hyper low and that the base is 510mm instead of 450mm like a lot of them. Have you personally sat in these seats?

You would be surprised, allot of seats put you up HIGHER then stock. Stick to stock, and just modify the seats to sit lower, it's not that hard.

I just found the link (from searching on honda-tech) and fast beat me too it...

You can also get aftermarket seat rails for the stock seats. BYS makes them along with some other brand I can't remember the name of right now.

I'm pretty sure i've seen a local S with recaros w/ recaro rails that were sitting lower than stock. Had the typical recaro name on the side of the rails think it was authentic.

oh those Backyard special rails are key! Thanks man you just saved me like $2,200

Not sure what year your car is, but for '06 and up the seat rails have SRS sensors in them. I've been told not to *** with them, but any earlier years then by all means get the lower rails.

thanks for the heads up! I'm talking about an 01 but that's good info to know.

best and cheapest bet would be the rails, if you do go with seats, make sure they will fit in the car before you buy them.

I'm American.... I fit in the Japanese seats nice, lose weight.

Seriously? I'm 5'11 and 175. My 32 waist pants are falling off...but 31s are too snug. So we'll call me a 31.5 waist. I fit into my Recaro Pole Positions just fine with room to spare...I almost wish they were snugglier like my blankey. I don't know what country of original Recaros are from...but I fit great. They're fixed position buckets and they're very comfy.

Some people just like wider seats, though. So Iduno. With a 34 waist...you really shouldn't have any issues fitting into almost any seat.

Are you sure it's 34 and not 36-38? You could just be "husky", you know. Lots of people are husky. Nothing wrong with that.

any links of how to do that? I wouldnt mind lowering my stock

I tried to sit in some brides and could not fit at all. I even had my gf try (she's 5'4 110 and in very good shape) and she said they were tight. I'm definalty a 34 waist, heck maybe alittle smaller. My butt is alittle big but that couldn't be the entire problem.

I do fit in JDM recaros just fine, I actually love them however the Brides I sat in were KILLING me.

youre the same size as me... and i absolutely love my recaro pole position. the spg is a little too snug on my ribcage, otherwise i would have gotten then

i live outside of Philly, so if you want to meet up i would be glad to so you could test the seat's comfort out

Bride Brix II are really comfy I had them in my integra

White Smoke

They sucked in my S2000! I never tried them with anything other then the bride rails but they were a total joke. There was no way I was fitting in the car with them. I think buckets are the only way to go in the S if you want aftermarket.

GSRkrod

haha ya i alomst kept them to put in my S but i got a good chunk of cash for them and the stock seats are fine for me lol

recaro pole position would fit you very well. with some rails, the seat rubs the floor and lowers you about 3 inches.
