Re: Tenzo-R type R seats....what is your take? (R-Adrenaline)
i asked a similar Q about tenzo product in general.... didnt get many good responces, seems like most ricers go with tenzo, but hey if they are comfortable and inexpensive then it may be a good buy.
I would agree with you about comfort and price

Tenzo 
Sparco, Recaro, Bride
Remember you get what you pay for.
Sure they may look decent, but then so does the del sol..
They are for show, not a good seat for Autocross and/or the strip.

thats troo about strip/street seat... they do look nice from the outside, but i dont know much about them and how sturdy they are, but most people knock them cuz they are cheap. id pay for a good seat, cuz its gonna be saving your life.

I have a set of them and they are great.. Not everyone can afford to spend $1500 on a pair of seats.. I autocross and drag race alot.. They work fine for both.. I havent had any problems with fading or wearing yet either.. One thing i have noticed is they definately are not as comfortable on the long 10 hour road trips as my stock ones were.. I paid $750 for mine with brackets. I think mine are the ones your talking about.. They recline and slide..

**** no...yall must be smokin crack......they are uncomfortable as ****, I had them for 2 days and sold them ASAP.... I dunno what yalls definition of comfort is, cuz those seats, sat high as hell, and made my knees practically hit the bottom of the steering wheel. Save up and get the real deal man....

I have had to Tenzo rally seats in my gsr for about 5 mons now...good seats. very comfortable. i paid around $200 a seat & $40
for the adjustable sliding brackets. the material is nice & soft & very supportive in upper leg. the only way these seats are "riced-out" is if the owner allows them to be
, which in that case, any racing seat would do. i tried sparcos & brides. those are great but a little more pricey. overall...

Tenzo seats sit high, are bulky, weigh heavy, and don't support well. With that said whats the point of these seats being called "racing" seats if they don't perform like one. My experience with them =

bottom line...you get what you pay for. i guarantee that the tenzoR seats do not hold up as long as sparco, recaro, bride seats do. so if you want quality, you have to pay for it.

The only reason it's called a racing seat is because "racing" parts sell.
