b/c they're cheap rice crap off ebay... there's no way in hell NEW *real* nismo seats cost $400 a pair! plus those are just generic racing seats (sparco knock offs) with a Nismo logo stitched into them...

THESE are the real Nismo Sport Seats:

really? what had to be done to make them fit in an S13? I didn't mean to knock them that bad (Just definatly NOT Nismo quality!) In fact I have some very similar ones coming, but just solid black. no logo or fake carbon stitching;)

i think both pairs look really good. Who cares really?? is there a big difference in comfort you think? Ive always hated racing seats of any kind personally, just too firm and rigid...how do you sit when you DONT want to race?? :-)

I sat in the seats, they definately are better than the S13 seats but are about on par with the S14 seats in terms of body flailing ability in corners, hehe. They definately aren't as good as a Sparco or compairable racing bucket though, more for looks than function. However this makes them more comfortable...

Does this go for ALL reclineable "racing" seats??? I really don't like the idea of going with a bucket seat because I know there will be times when I'll want the recline feature, so is it possible to find a reclining seat that also helps you stay firmly seated in the twistys???? Much better than stock s14 seats and if so enough to justify spending the money??

Hate to say it but I don't like the real nismo seats, they look like S13 seats basically. I think I'd save the extra $200-$400 a piece, and get some Bride seats. Look better, feel better, IMO and are lighter. Flame on my brother, flame on. :D
