Meh... I'm partial to Recaros personally. The Brides are nice, but it seems like you have to pay for the JDM goodness. If in fact they are actually real..

There are so many fakes out there it's hard to believe that someone would pay $3000+ for a set of REAL Brides.

I wanted something a little different. I have had recaros in every vehicle I've owned.

The ones I purchased are actually lightly used (off showroom).

Which Recaros? OEMs?

I think a Recaro SPG or something of the sort is going to be a little different than an OEM Honda or DSM seat. Still nice quality though...

I have always found the Bride seats to be tight and kinda uncomfortable for a DD. Maybe it's just me. I can tell you that Status seats are the most expensive and uncomfortable seats I've ever used.

$1500 per seat is a joke.

I have had oem dc2 jdm recaros (similar to srd's), and recaro seats in my evo.


To my knowledge status only makes a "bucket". non reclinables.

Oh yeah... Status doesn't make any reclineable seats. Their buckets are stupid tight.



In other news guys, project single side exhaust is underway!

It's going to be loud as hell, but something I've wanted to do. I'm going 3" 304 stainless tubing through a 12" muffler (under the car) then up to the left side out through a 3" race muffler. :-P

Need opinions on the 4.08 gearing.


I am going to be installing a quiafe lsd very soon, and was thinking about maybe putting a 4.08 gear in.

What are you guys opinions on this?

It's very cool, but i think it throws the syncro, speedO, and gas mileage off. Then again so does my 20" wheels and they don't make my Z any faster. Quite a few guys have done it, maybe give them a pm and see what they say.
