Front seats for my baby

I'm looking around at some seats for my 02 oz rally and I want to se what you guys have and like and dont like. I dont really want a racing style seat unless its super comfortable. Also if you have racing style seats and you dont use a harness, how well does the oem belt hold you in? Lemmi know.

Be very careful about buying discount racing seats like those! They are not crash tested like the big brand seats (sparco, recaro etc) and can actually cause you more bodily harm in a crash. Be prepared to spend big on seats that exceed stock comfort AND are safe. The evo seats are by far the best and safest upgrade.

Very Very True especially about the evo seats!

If you want support without a full on racing seat, see if you can find some used seats out of an 04-06 Ralliart. Their very comfy, have strong bolsters, but don't crush your hips like racing seats.

Those look nice. I may go with them. I wish I had a place I could go actually sit on the seat before I buy it. I wanna make sure I dont regret getting them.

Evo Recaros are by far the best. I went from 03 Lancer seats, to Ralliart seats to Evo seats and Evo seats are in a league of their own.
