New Seats

Well I have been pimp'n my Evo for the past couple of weeks. The Recaro seats in the Evo are so damn comfortable. When I got into my P5 today it felt like I was sitting in a bus. Its not that the seats arent comfortable it is just they make me feel like I am sitting to high in the car. Does anyone have any racing seats for actual comfort and not looks? I would like to get some feedback on some good seats to replace my stock ones, and are they really worth it?

Well if you like recaro's those are nice.

I've heard good things about sparco and there was another brand that begins with S that my friend has in his mustang.... those were comfortable.

sparco, recaro, and Bride make some good seats. I owned a pair of Bride seats. (jdm company) they were very comfortable.

if you install the seats with aftermarket seat brackets. You will sit lower.

Yeah you do end up sitting lower, i dunno how much i never bothered to attempt to measure the difference. For me however being lower in the car gave a much better driving position (I'm 6' 4"), the shifter, armrest, steering wheel, are all in much better possitions now.
