switch the left back portion of the chair with the right side...this has happened to me, the driver's side back is held up by a bolt on the left side of the chair (the bolt and hole are stripped) and the passenger side back is held on the right side...when you switch backs the hole and bolt will fit in nice and new again and will hold you up fine for a long time. i hope that made sense...i'm stoned while writing this...

fukk that.. seats r hella expensive.. i went to a couple of places locally.. and 400+per seat.. and then i found some that look like x-crosser seats but im not sure if ill fit in those seats.. and then i found some that i fit in.. but 1600 for a set.. of speacos.. best bet.. going to a good upostry place.. i went to one today.. and they said they might be able to fix my seat.. if not they have some s14 seats that are all jacked up..and r going to give them to me.. but i just gotta get the cloth fixed.. so i might just do that.. but we will see

no kidding the stock seats suck on donkey balls......

the foam in both of mine are soo ded that i sit on the metal frame and springs, the cloth is wearing through in small spots, most of the metal is rusting.....ill just get a better condition passenger seat and prolly a bride seat for myself hehe

i cant really cry too much tho cuz the seats are 13 years old and the last owner weighed like 2903092873405982 lbs!
