anyone have any experience with the knock off type r seats they have, how do they feel etc... and if anyone has any close up pics that would be cool
for $100 bucks less are they worth it next to the nrg seats, thanks

 

They don't look too bad, but I'm not sure if I'd buy them. If I did, they certainly wouldn't be for AutoX or actual racing, considering they're probably not certified. I might buy them for a DD, though.

i dont have these seats

the ones from jhpusa look like they dont give much lateral support from

 

i'm sure they're fine for what they are and for daily driving, however if you plan on racing with them, i don't think you'll pass tech since i doubt they're certified.

true, i've sat in a similiar set bought from jdmcarboy and quality is okay. I'd rather spend the $290 on a set of black cloth integra seats, just my opinion.

 

what about the jdmshit ones?

they look like they'll hold a bit better than the jhpusa seats but hey, they could be the same exact seats. Either way i wouldn't pay $459 for knock off seats with supposedly quality material.

Aren't they all the same?

 

i dont have the money for real ones, and even if I did its my daily and I have dumb teenagers in my car all day so I dont want real ones that could get ruined. I have been thinking about getting rid of my back seats so I wont have to drive people around anymore and then I could get a harness bar also and not worry about people dieing in my car in a small fender bender
