Default bucket seat recommendation?

I just got a new ef, and I'm looking to buy a bucket seat very soon. Only problem is that I''m unsure of which brand I should go with.. Don't want to spend too much price ranging 200-350 for 1 seat.

one seat i've liked is http://www.andysautosport.com/honda/...a00247313.html

Do you guys think its a good seat?
What about ebay seats?? just universal pair for like 200~?

racing seats are nice maybe for racing but if you ever need to drive distance in your car those kidney, chest, thigh restrictors are going to tick you off

They are nice for corners but not long rides

I would definitely try to test a seat if i wasnt getting it used and paying $50

really for the money our spending on the "cheap" one. you should save up and get something nice. .Bride, Spoon, Mugen, Buddyclub, Recaro, Sparco, etc the cheap one is pretty much just a copy of what someone else developed. and nice seats have resale value. your megan seat is not gonna be worth the coin you paid retail for. some name brand stuff even goes up in value.

literally nothing goes up in value after its been used, besides rare odm parts.

honestly, there is probably much larger things on your car you should be focusing on, race seats are towards the end of a complete build, most people wouldn't worry about seats if there engine and suspension wasn't completely built.
