Default Seats

I was thinking about replacing my stock seats and wanted something very comfortable especially on long trips. What do you guys suggest and yes, I am on a budget. Thanks.

I am definately interested in the Del Sol seats if they are the dark grey w/ light grey stripes. Do you have them in an EG right now? If so, will they come with the brakets? I am not exactly clear what it would take to fit them in my '93. but I have been looking for del seats for a while. It seems like the only ones I have ever seen anyone selling were red striped and that would look pretty sour in my purple car. Let me know...

from the seats I used to have:
5th gen stock
5th gen JDM stock SiR (one piece no bolster stiching)
JDM ITR Recaro seats
JDM SiR/GSRs seats (slightly smaller)
Del Sols (JDM and USDM - JDM used a nicer fabric)
Sparco EVo and Pro Lakes 2000

from the seats Del Sol are best seat for the buck...JDM recaros are nice by too flashy and sit way too high, but hold nice...stock JDM or USDM both don't hold well, are not comforatble and make you sit higher then anyone likes. GSRs aren't bad, but sit only little lower then stock (almost unnoticable)...
Spracos are nice but getting out and in is a pain...

Will Del Sol seats fit an EK? Maybe that's dumb question...but I thought I should ask.

i was thinking about gettin del sol seats also for my EK. Two questions? First off, do I just use the del sol rails and they should bolt right in? And two I have a short torso, so is it possible for me to raise the seat some how, because i heard they sit really low?

You can put a spacer under the monts to make them sit higher, or you should. Any one know for sure?
