I'm getting ahold of a S13 soon and was wondering what seats (FROM ANY CAR) are the most comfortable, I'm in my friend's S13 everyday and he has stock seats and I'm not a big fan of them... Any car... I've seen S2000 seats in S13's and they looked awesome, as well as 350z seats in an S13, so let me know what you guys think.

S14 is really popular because it bolts right in, or at least that is what every says...

I believe the skyline seats come really close, and from what I have heard most others take some work...

If you do go bucket seats, or any after market for that matter, realize there is a lump under the seat and after market rails almost always have to lift the seat up to get it to clear if its a bottom mount... and head space is already at a premium in the S13, ESPECIALLY if you ever plan on wearing a helmet.

Also, 240 questions go in the 240 section

While we're still on the topic, what are people using for the back seats? Just the stock back seats or is there a company who makes them better? o_O

I have had S14, S15, GT-R and now I rock Corbeau Forza.

The S15 were the best sports seat for the street. Great bolsters and very comfy. The GT-R was just too small (I am 6', size 36 and 230lbs). The S14s are comfy, but just not enough of a bolster. Currently, I have a S14 for my passenger (most comfy, and usually a gril that sits there) and a Corbeau Forza for me. Love it.

I've had s14 + s15 seats, both bolt right into s13. S14 seats are more comfortable for dd but lack a bit of side support for autocross. S15 seats hold really well, but the sides come up a bit high so my arms don't feel relaxed. Go S14 if you dd more and wanna save money.
