so instead of buying racing seats for my car i thought id get something with comfort/racing/look.

ive always loved s2k seats and type r seats.

what do you guys think.

eh..... they don't have "honda" or "type R" in the seat do they? If you can get a good deal on them, why not?

I always liked the Si Seats. Those are comfy. Pictures would help too

Exactly how are these seats going to fit in an S13? Unless you're really short, you may find your head crammed against the roof of the car.

The RX-8 seats look nice, although the leather is probably going to be kind of slippery and not particularly grippy. They look reasonably bolstered, not too claustrophobic.

The only reason I mentioned fit is because you *will* need to have some custom work done to make them fit. If you can weld, then it's all good. If not, you may find that the cost of the seats plus custom work fabbing brackets could buy you some comfortable Sparco seats (street, not racing seats).
