those seats are so dope i want them also. there was someone in sponsor market place selling them for 1200 shipped, which is a steal. he ran out of black, but still has red. im an idiot for not jumping on it. expect to pay around 1300-1400 though, if you find a deal let me know.

let just say, after a long drive you can pratically sleep on it..it's just that comfortable.
1000 is relatively a saving.

edit***** to answer question below<><>
never sat in sparco torino or milano..
but from the looks of it, the jdm srII or srIII have more support.

and as for comfort the the recaro srIIor III can be recline in 1 or 1/2 of an inch increment/forward or backward.

I bought mine for $1400 shipped from Brian Wong b18c_powered_si on this board. They are awesome. The height seems a little lower than the stock seats and they are so comfortable. Definately a worth while investment. I will try and get some good shots this weekend.

Than go with the recaros, the sparcos torinos weigh lyk 40 pounds, and the recaros look better n-e ways.

1300 a pair. And that deal for 1200 was amazing

I had cloth seats, but with the recaro rails, these seats definitely sit higher.

It's also a bitch to climb in and out of, but the comfort level is 10X greater than the stock seats.

You guys like the black ones best? I'm all about the red ones. The yellow ones are nice too but only in a yellow car.

They're great. comfortable for daily driving. holds you in great. They're about the same height as oem usdm seats. Downside is its a little annoying getting in & out, unwanted attention, and no weight savings.

From what I've heard, s2k seats are great too. they sit at least an inch or more lower and holds you in pretty well. Of course you'd need to modify them.

i also wouldn't mind the s2k seats wouldn't mind having the 03 si seats either
but all in all i would go w/ some recaros jdm or even the aftermarket which you can find a lil cheaper
