2G Evo leather recaro seats

[Twinturbo2800]

any1 know where i could pick up a pair of these badboys ?
the recaro leather seats that came in the newer evos

or if i could even put them in my 99 gsx ?

They come in evo 9's. I seriously doubt you will find a set of used ones, because they are so nice no one will sell them. On top of that dealer will want more than they are worth. Good luck finding a set if you do let me know.

Check the EVO forums and watch for those guys who are ballin (lots of money or lack there of just to floss) and upgrade to other seats, but be warned they will still cost $$$. Your best chance to find these for cheap are, being lucky, or finding a wrecked one somewhere in the junkyard. But those go hand in hand.

But if your willing to shell out the cash, you can get it no problem.

good luck.

Put it this way, I just saw an add for JUST THE REAR SEATS, asking for $300 + shipping.

Yikes!

Yes you can have some brackets fabricated to bolt the seats up to make them work. I have seen a member here or at dsmtalk with them and a evo steering wheel (very nice). But for the amount of coin your going to spend to get them you could probely just buy a lower end sparco set and brackets for about the same amount.

considering insurance on those seats alone are about 5 grand (seriously, not kidding its sick), good luck finding a set for under a 1000.

You know what are pretty badass seats, the stock 99 only black leather gsx power driver seat! Those are more rare than EVO seats.

If money didnt matter then my favorite seat of choice would be the sparco milano prestige http://www.sparcousa.com/pseats_street.asp?id=196 although they are $1700 a piece

The leather Recaro seats from the Evolution are not only available in the Evolution IX. They are part of the "Sun, Sound, and Leather" package and are also available on any Evolution VIII that had that package. Unless you're talking about the black/grey sport fabric Recaros that are standard on the Evolution IX.

As far as pricing goes, I have seen the black/blue sport fabric Recaros from the Evolution VIII go for ~$600. I have seen the Evolution IX SE (black/grey sport fabric with red stitching) seats for sale at ~$1400. I can only guess that if you found any of the leather Recaros from either the VIII or the IX, that they would cost you over $1400.
