Evo VIII seats

[RipperXX]

Is there anywhere I could buy a pair of seats like thoughs in the Evo. I want some nice aftermarket seats but sparcos cost so much and stick out like a damn sore thumb. And I am going for a whole aftermarket look that I want to look like it came from the factory. That being CLEAN! and smooth nothing to eye catching.


So, other than buying them from a dealership is there anywhere I could get them?

Even if you could buy the EVO's seats somewhere besides Mitsubishi, they are Recaros so they'd be out of your budget.

... Well I am realy set on geting a pair. I mean I am with time going to make this car, my dream car. And every time I see my stock raged out torn up seats I always think to myself "I REALY have to get thoughs damn Recaro's"

BTW: I am also wanting to lower my car and I want the Tokico illumina shocks and spings.. but all I can find is for 95-99.. is there any deference in 1g and 2g? Will thoughs work on my car?

There are cheaper seats out there. They aren't name brand Recaro, Sparco, Corbeau. Check out like nopionline.com or flip through a mag of tuner, turbo, super street, sport compact. Check out the ads in there. Some look damn nice and are usually half the price of the leading name brands.

Yeah, I'd go with an aftermarket seat like DAD. They are pretty cheap and just as good as Recaro, Corebeau, etc from what I've heard. Unfortunately there are no brackts made for 1G's so you'll have to fabricate your own. Dr. Ziplok made a good thread about creating these. If you really want the OEM look, check out my gallery cuz I have a pic of the stock, black leather seats. They look really good, even though leather isn't my thing. For the shocks/springs question.. 2G parts won't work. 1G's have a limited selection for suspension parts.. all of which you can check out here: http://www.dsmtuners.com/parts/default.php?cPath=2_148

Thanks. I have some other seats picked out if there absolutely no way to get the Recaro's but. I am going to build my #$&* dream car here. The point is to have it just how I want it and not settel for anything less..

^^^put pics of your car in the gallery, i want to see it

, trust me you dont want to see it just yet. at the moment it looks like a pice of junk.

When I got the car my ricer idiot friend had painted all kinds of crap inside the car white (car was painted 2 tone white/black) so I painted all but the dash back black.

It is going to need some body work, a fresh coat of paint. And new dash & interior panels, along with lowered 1" and put some 17" volk raceing wheels on it with some nice rubber and tint the windows before it will start to look good imo.

You actually might be able to get the evo seats for cheap. Im sad to say that I have seen ALOT of wrecked evo's on sights and if you can find one and get ahold of the owner maybe you can snag them for a good price. Just a suggestion though, good luck.

 

[RipperXX]

Could you give me a quick list of the sites you have seen them?

if you want some really cheap, good looking seats, go to www.airdynamicracing.com and see what they have. i think their seats are like 130 a piece

I saw one on here in the hangout section and a couple over on honda-tech.com. Do a search over there because I remember reading the post and it was a friend of the guy who put it up. It was a red evo. Hope this helps. And yes I look at honda-tech-
