Recaro Seat Install help...

[syline13]

Hi,

I bought a pair of evo recaro seats for my s13. Does anyone have idea what type of seat rails will work on it? I tried to get it from recaro but they are too expensive, so looking for some reasonable price. Please pass me your wise advise.

Thanks.

Drill out the floor hump. Beat the cat hump with a sledge or cut and weld in a flat floor.

Get universal bottom mount sliders.

are they bottom mount seats? if so, will the Bride MO rails not work for you? i know that they work for my Sparco seat. you might be able to pick up one for a decent price used.

i like this method, it's a PITA to get the seat to not sit up to high on bottom mount seats, even with my bride MO rail on my Corbeau.

The Evo has a really high roofline. The seats will be very close to hitting the roof in S car.

An Evo has about 40" of headroom even with the high seat height.

An S13 has 37" of headroom, and that's with a really flat seat base.

If you put an Evo Recaro into an s13 you will lose like 2-3" of headroom because the seat cushion is thicker and higher.

wow, i didnt know that. you better just stick with the cut, smash, and weld method then.
