Default My Leather "Nismo" Recaro Pole Positions INSTALLED

Hi gents,

I have finally got those seats installed in my car to replaced my SRIII Integra Type R seats... The integra type R seats sitting positions were HEAPS lower, so kinda feeling a bit weird to drive in the current position... and I really need to sit fairly clost up to the wheel now due to the sitting position of the recaro rails (so tall)....

Had them put in the nismo emblem since my whole car uses all nismo items.. and they turn out GREAT!!!

here are some pics for you guys...















cheers,

richie

thanks guys...

the seats are actually VERY comfortable... I went for a long drive back to work after the installation, then went got those seats certified by an engineer at a different suburb... no sign of my usual back pain at all (not with the recaro seats)... but getting in and out is a bit difficult though...

I got those leather done afterwards, they are around AUD 1K just for the leather job... supurb job!

cheers,

richie

hmm... here's an interesting observation.

Can you still open the glovebox? (the one behind passenger seat).

LOL

thanks mate... I am loving those seats..

I lowered the driver side by 55mm today, and it is a lot easier to get in and out, but they still feel pretty "hard" compare to those SR series seats... I will definitely need to sit a lot closer to the wheel than those SR seats due to the fix sitting positions...

as for the glovebox issue, you will just need to move the passenger side seat a bit forward, it is still possible to get things from that... but turning back around while you are sitting at the driver side is pretty tough!

cheers,

richie
