What are probably the most comfortable seats I could put in an s14 that are not racing seats. I thinking trying Z33 (w/ power) or S15 seats personally but what would you recommend for comfort? Thanks.

Well the most comfortable would be the ones you already have.

S13 seats are torture devices.

S14 seats are better, but they give me lower back pain after a long ride. Kind of like Tito.

Oh, maybe. I probably didn't have SE seats then. Right now my car is under construction I guess, so not too concerned with seats. But if I were to change my seat, I think I would want Prelude seats. I've had a 3rd gen prelude and currently drive a 5th gen and I love the seats.

I have never sat in S15 or gt-r seats so i can't say but i think the z33 seats are comfy i have sat in those, they hold you in well for factory seats imo.

Does anyone know how high S15 seats sit? I heard Z33 raise you ever so slightly which is fine with me as I would prefer it actually. Also what would you say is the best company to use for leather covering? Thanks again.

Why would s15 seats sit any higher/lower? It's still from a s-chassis car.

my vote for s15 seat if u want extra side support and don't feel like fabbing anything to fit

s14 SE seat with the lumbar support is pretty darn good

i've had both in my s14. i'm using s15 now since it holds better, but for a long drive i miss the stock SE seat which i sold

S15 seat feels just like an S14 seat IMO. I can tell you an UNcomfortable seat, though: Celica GTS.

My friend has 350z seats and i didnt notice a height difference. you could still wear a helmet for sure with them, unlike my rx7 were my hair grazes the head liner with the stock seats.
