Lolzilla!!!

Not at all. Just seems to be the general majority on here havent heard about most JDM makes, so then go with the usual easily available off the shelf item.

Which isnt always a bad thing, but with a bit of research you can usually get something a bit cooler/rarer/better quality for not much more money.

But i will hold my hands up and say i am a JDMbling fanboy. So for me personally, having the nicer JDM parts on my car makes me happy.

And no i dont have any sort of Adidas track suit, you have me mistaken for someone who doesnt spend top money on his car, and rolls in a sh1tty classic with a magnex/peco doom cannon hanging out the back!

I'd rather have a car that goes faster than it looks over having one that looks faster than it goes any day of the week

i didnt mean all Classic's were sh1tty, it was in reference to the comment that i 'must wear a track suit'. i was trying to say that i am not a council estate Impreza owner, that has a dog awful classic shape with a super loud exhaust.

And the nice interior comment was to dazdavies, as it was almost tho he was suggesting that because you spend money on your interior you cant of spent money on the car going faster. Tho i might of mis-understood what he meant.

So not quite sure why your being a touch hostile towards or trying to catch me out?!

I'm sure Daz will confirm\deny, if he thinks it's required...but at a guess he was probably referring to bling seats in lardy new-age cars...

not trying to catch you out or be hostile, hence the use of smilies...perhaps my sense of humour can be misconstrued as a tab abrasive but I can live with that

Crud image but i just dumped a pair of recaro speeds into mine, a lot of my friends have EK9 and DC2/5 integra type R's, always really liked these seats so thought id go for it, very happy with how they feel and they dont look wildly out of place. (appologies for the crud pic)

Absolutely mate, the proper subaru recaro subframes are incredibly well made, we had the old seats out and the new ones attached to frames and in, in about 30 mins.

The standard subaru seats are really nice but i wanted something that was gonna have a touch more support without being a full bore race spec seat, these seem to fit the profile

Corbeau Revolutions
larger size - tried the snug ones in my supra and they were just a little too much!
not in the car yet, waiting to sort my cage first
want to get them fitted without the sliders, just bolted to the floor

Thnx for the comments people!

Yes they recline

I am 190cm tall, but i am light weight, and i find much easy for DD to put the seats a little more to the back them most of you probably would

The paint looks much better in person then on the pic's

I am glad you people like them...
