Default Seats, what are you using?

I'm getting the Prelude all ready to go for the Summer and want some ideas on seats.
Going to go for 1 piece buckets. I had a set of Buddy Club seats in my old AE86 and they were great. I'd love to put a set in the Prelude but not sure what people are doing for rails.

Let's see what you guys are running.

This is in a BB6 by the way.

Bride Low Max Vios III

Great bucket seats for Time attack and they are confortable for daily driving too.

But if your waist are over 34, I dont recommend those.

EBay cheapos' beat OE seats any day when you start auto-x'ing a car.
I need more support before I end up throwing my head out the side window in a good corner lol!

I also need access to the back seat of the car for DD purposes (daughter) so I was thinking Brid GIAS seats for the front.
Just need to modify rails to make it all sit properly in the car. Cant wait!

i like the OE prelude seats they already have a pretty sporty look to them i think they were designed by Recaro? could be mistaken. But i ditched them cause they are heavy as hell.

I'm running Recaro Speeds out of a DC2 integra. I am a 38-40in waist and I fit BARELY, they are comfy though, plenty of padding in the seat cushion and they feel like they are hugging you. I used the integra sliders and rails, just had to enlarge the front 2 holes and redrill the outside rear one to match Prelude mounting points. Remember: saw to shape, file to fit, pound in place with a big a** hammer! lol
