Hi Everyone, I did all the search i could before asking this.

How far back can I recline the front passengers recaros? My intention is to recline them all the way to the back so i can fit my surf board.

Help is needed thanks.

I dont want to get an sti.

 

No way this will work I can't see it happening. Roof rack or something off the back is your only option I'd guess.

 

I ride very short shortboards, I used to have a corolla and I would just recline the passenger´s seat back, and fit the surfboard just like a person would if they would sleep in the car with the seat reclined to the back. Is this possible in the recaros of the evo X and Evo IX?

 

like, how far back can it recline?

 

They recline back as much as any other car. If you say you use short surfboards then it shouldn't be a problem

 

throw it on the roof!

 

Thanks for the idea, but i dont like racks on a lancer, maybe the removable portable soft racks yes, but they kinda suck because they are hard on the doors rubber weatherstrips, also if it rains water comes in. plus i hate straping expensive boards i rather have them inside the car. So i was thinking like i used to do in my corolla just recline all the way back the passengers seat, or make the rear seats fold down so i can fit the board from the trunk ?

 

Back seats don't fold down in any Evos

 

yeah, what meant is to mod them to make em fold

 

U r fine! I do it all the time!! I drive a 14 gsr! just recline passenger seat all the way down and put towell on top of seat!!

 

Hi EdisonEYL. I drive an EVO x FQ360 and also ride a CI Weirdo Ripper that is 5' 6". If I am going to surf alone I slide the passenger seat back and recline it as well. It will recline all the way to touch the back passenger seat, but that is not needed with a short board. I place it at about a 45 degree angle and I then use the front passenger seatbelt to secure the board (just as you would a person) and I am good to go.

BTW I also did this exact thing in my 2006JDM Sti.

Hope this helps
