I like how it came out. It just pains my heart that there are no good seats for us 1G fellahs.
Wow, I have the exact same seats sitting in the garage waiting to be installed. Its from a honda civic. How did you install the brackets?
Well looks like I'm gonna stop porting your manifold since you decided to put Honda seats in your dsm...
He mentioned earlier that he had to custom fabricate the brackets to get the seats to fit, I don't see why you couldn't do that with your 1g.
Can I have some pictures from the Rack mounting ? Thanks looks great!Just for future searches here are a few Pictures of my s2000 seats in my car. For a deeper elaboration on what was needed to install them, as I found the OP's instructions SLIGHTLY lacking here's what I did..
Used both s2000 seat brackets due to weight savings.
The inside bracket nearest the center console will bolt straight in. The rear hole on this bracket will need to be reamed out slightly but nothing you couldn't so with a walmart dremal.
The outside bracket needs to be raised 1.25 to 1.5" to have the seat sit level, otherwise the top of seat will nearly contact the door. What I did to raise them was cut the rivets and welds holding the feet on to the brackets. The front foot will nearly 100% line up in its factory location, it just needs to be raised. The rear foot will need to be cut in half and turned 90* to match the rear bolt hole.
I planned to use square tubing to raise the seat levels, but I was on my gsxr when I was at the hardware store and couldn't get a 4' piece of 1.25 tubing to the house. So I went to the hardware section and found 3/4 inch nuts were 50 cents a piece and their OD was about 1 and an eighth inch. While I feel they were close enough, I actually ran across some bigger ones at work and went with them. So I got 8 of them and welded 2 together side by side. Then I welded them where the feet originally were on the bottom of the bracket and welded the feet to the bottom of the nuts. Solid as can be! I can attempt to get pics upon request. Hope this helps someone else.
