i am going to buy seats tomorrow and i wanted to have some oppinions, help me out please!
its a Black 88 Si, full interior, 91 dash with SiR cluster wings west rs kit, slammd on tein HA's, going to get black or bronze or maybe gold rims (c8's or sub zero's) either 15" or 16", b16 with a red valve cover, maybe b18c5 in a few weeks, jdm front end and taillights and no wing.
what seats to buy?
either:
-red momo rs
-black momo rs
-red sparco juniors
-black sparco juniors
those are my 4 choices because i am on a budget and i am leaning towards the red momos (i can get all 4 for the same price) but i would like to have some feedback so please help me out, i have to go buy them tomorrow because right now i dont have seats!!! thanks!

 

This is what i'm getting for my crx

Jeff-

 

JDMBOLONI - If you're gonna get the b18 what are you gonna do with your b16??

 

If you still have your stock steering wheel, you should look into steering wheels also. Don't want to mix and match momo seats with sparco steering wheel do you? As for 15" vs 16"s look at tires before you decide what wheels to get, 16's look nice, but h-t members are very performance oriented so they will tell you to stray away from 16's on a small crx.

the momo rs look easier to get in and out of, but I suggest you sit in both of them and then decide. Its hard on the back(to me anyways) to sit in racing seats any longer than 1hour at a time. But it also sucks when sitting shotgun and the driver has a full racing seat and you are sitting in a stocker while he is turning like a he is racing against the world and you are getting thrown around....

 

Take a look and sit in Sparco REV or ULTRA. They both fit nicely and look good. The Ultra only comes one way + brackets; has a nice tight fit for me (5'11" 150). You should also consider Sparco or Simpson harnesses while you are at it.
I agree that the best thing to do is to sit in several models before deciding. Price should not determine the choice; it is the same thing like shoes-you have to be comfy.

i ended up buying the Red MOMO RS, they are bigger then the Sparco's and i used my stock rails and made a plate that goes underneath the seats that bolts to the seats and to the stock rails, it was easy to make and the seat still slides just like the stock one does, i love them! thanks for the replies!

 

Those Recaro's arent "JDM" .. all the Milleniums were made in Mexico hence " MDM "



Just busting your ***** Jeff.

edit: I have mugen s1 bucket seats. NOT recommended for daily driving. I recommend Sparco Tourino's or Recaro SR3's not SRD's

sorry dude...Millenium's are made in Germany for ASIA market. The ones you're talking about is the bootleg which is made in TAIWAN (never in mexico in my knowledge). It's the SRD us version you're talking about

Jeff-

 

Actually... I was thinking about the SRD.. The millenium is actually made in HONG KONG. Im looking at it right now.

 

could be bootleg HK made..but I know they make Recaro's in Kaosiung, Taiwan which is about 5 blocks away from my parent's house (they have a house there). and I have couple sets of the "GERMANY" made version in my warehouse right now

Jeff-

 

whatever they may be who gives a rat ***.

i have a set of sparco seats for sale. black in good condition. no signs of wear, rips, tears


make me an offer.

 

yeah..hope you didn't pay too much for those. bootlegs are going for like 300 in asia...compare to 600~650. quality wise? prolly like sparco

Jeff-

 

for what jeff? the milleniums? 500 bucks a pair no rails. its for a customers car not mine. i already have a set of mugen seats.

 

haha...ok dude. mugen bucket seats? yeee..those seats are so uncomfy. maybe cuz i'm too fat for it that's why i have to get a customize BRIDE seats. those are hella more comfy

Jeff-
