The RSX Type S seats are a lil stiff imo..
If you're looking for comfort and support for spirited driving you might try some crx or civic si seats.

What are your goals with this project?

Well im going to get a jdm front end and paint it back the original aztec green. new glass for the sunroof and full original interior in black i mean the jdm needs every here and their but motor wise, im planning on doing b20v. the a6 im gonna have a load of bolt ons for it just for a little bit have some fun see what i can do haha. after i either sell or blow up the a6! um wheels im gonna splurge so hard on wheels for it and my friend converted my car to integra brakes before i got it. so the wheels im going to get are goin and i WILL find some wither hayashi sakuras. OR! Mugen cf 48's i have one cf 48 but i need 3 more i plan on buying a whole set and just having a spare suspension their is already blox shocks with skunk 2 springs put all this stuff on today after i got it ill have pics up later lcas, bars. so it depends what happens with this motor i dont really know im thinking just boosting the a6 and seeing what i can do with it
