Default Integra Type R DC2 seats

I have a set of USDM Integra Type R DC2 seats with the suede and red stitching. Aside from the materials, they are shaped and feel exactly like the regular Integra seats.

I'm considering switching to the JDM Recaro Integra Type R DC2 seats.

I want to know who has or has sat in a set of the JDM Recaro Integra Type R seats? How do they feel compared to the USDM Integra seats?

They seem to look and be shaped the same from the lower back and lower while the upper is wider than the USDM. Do they have the lumbar lever like the USDM seats do?

I would not want them for daily driving if comfort is worse.

The JDM ITR seats are firmer than the USDM.

They don't have lumbar adjustment.

They hold you better n the seat and are marginally less comfortable because they are firmer.

Also depending on your build, they may be too narrow for you; especially at the thighs. I'm 5'9" 160 btw and I find them to be just right.

Just get them... you won't regret it....

The only thing I don't like about daily driving with my recaro's is getting in and out of them... but I wouldn't have it any other way.

Yes they do, but it's ghetto lumbar support (I'm referring to the piece of pre cut foam they come with you slip behind the fabric in that area).

I have them in and it works pretty good considering!

-Higher side bolsters

-More precise recline adjustment (One of my pet peeves)

-I'm 5' 9'' as well, 140lbs

Both seats are excellent though, and at times I really do miss my set. (And then I sit in my new ones )

They hold better but it sucks if your a fatty like me. Sold mine because the only time I was enjoying the tight fit was when I was on the track.
