awesome stuff dude.

[GabeS14]

very nice..
the last 8 pics or so are double posted by the way.

[FRpilot]

one of every seat recaro made from 1979-2000!?

did you collect recaro seats and store the in a warehouse?

[a2coupe2a]

lol i have sort of been hoarding these things for a while, it started out as a hobby i guess you could say and spun out of control.

If the commercial side of things is a problem i can pull our upholstery pics off of here. I can also post pictures of my house to show these recaros are here and not at a shop haha.

Just to give you a rough idea.. this isnt even 1/2 of them..

[novita1021]

Hey I've got some recaros idk what model they look like the gen 4 ls-b..question I always loves the mesh head rest can I just swap the head rest and call it good if so do you have the mesh head rest's for sale..doesn't matter condition I need to re do my seats anyway hehe thanks..

And that's a prety sick collection

[a2coupe2a]

the mesh headrest are directly interchangeable as well as the ortho headrest and the ortho speaker headrest. I have a few sets but none i would want to sell atm. I would suggest checking ebay.

[Mcpot132]

Bump for a VERY artistic dude, I will mos def be keeping in touch

[Jturbo]

[speedgod^s13]

How much would a set of srd's refinished in gradation run? Do you have any non reclining seats?

[J.Muilenb]

[Om1kron]

They're recaro sportster cs seats they're roughly 1500 a seat for base fabric, and 2000-2200 for leather or a custom option like I quoted.

not sure where I saw them before, but I love those seats too, quite possibly the hottest seats ever.

[a2coupe2a]

Thanks guys, here is another pic right before we did the final fitment on them

and you still have the set for sale? price?

[a2coupe2a]

No those are not for sale, thats a set we did for a local guy. I just posted as an example of our work since we would obviously be recovering the recaros we have fs before we sold them if that makes sense.

[Bushido]

amazing work! top notch.

[Jtuned_andy]

what are the multicolored recaros originally out of? the ones with the gradation yellow-black, etc.

[a2coupe2a]

They were aftermarket and optional in some porsches. Also fun side note the similar grey material that has popped up on ebay and whatnot is all fake. So are the srds that are showing up with that insert.

The original orange spectrum material recaro used is also what bride and cobra ripped off for their older seats. Bride actually started off making the equivalent of recaro knock offs and still use recaro parts on their seats today but i believe the parts are now licensed.

Epic and very informative FS thread indeed. Hope your thread is not going to get locked.

Do you happen to have SR6 seats in your collection at all?

Trophies are ls-b's. Stock sets anywhere from 2-500. Recovered around 1200 +. Would need to check on rails

[pincheturbo]

you should turn those seats around and bam, got yourself a home made theatre. with recaro seats.

[a2coupe2a]

haha, those were just up there while i was building new shelves. If i had all of my seats up there they would have to be stacked up 3 seats deep

[a2coupe2a]

bump it up

[hummer96]

You wouldn't happen to have any of the 99' spec 300zx seats would you? I did spot a set of what looked at least similar to them but can't be sure from that far away. Amazing collection as well!

-Aaron

[a2coupe2a]

Can you shoot me a picture of them? If i dont have one i might know where you could find one.

[Kaizen.]

This is way cooler than animal hoarding.

I didnt know animal hoarding was cool but thank you.. i think haha

Did a little more research. They are Recaro SRs:

To my knowledge, I don't think they come with any production car as an option, only as aftermarket part. I also believe they're manufactured from Recaro Japan.

Those are SRD's.. with older recaros each seat back had a 2 digit code in that case SR and then there was a code for the base in that case D.

They made an A, B, C, and D base for the lx, ls,and sr's as seen here..

Yeah ROJ gets all sorts of cool stuff, they are pretty much their own company.

Is this style material still available for reupholstering, I love the pattern.

http://i423.photobucket.com/albums/pp317/jcfishel/cars%20misc/DSC_0018.jpg

[a2coupe2a]

I know it is not available from any of the usual sources but i would not at all be surprised if it is being reproduced and shipped over from asia its just a matter of finding out who has it.

I love the seats from this era. man if I found those Bride's......wish i had interior to go with the different shades of orange and brown on those Recaros.

[a2coupe2a]

safety wise those brides wouldnt be the smartest choice. Bride didnt really step up their quality until lately from what i understand.

Here is an example from 7-8 years ago.

Great example of knock offs right here. Be sure to read the full ads and look for the FIA tags..

From the ad
"LISTED PRICE IS FOR 2 SEATS (ONE PAIR).

Please note: These seats are the overseas version. They're Grey market products.

These seats no longer come with FIA tags."


Fancy way of saying these are knock offs..

Those start at 1500 with a solid headrest. Netted headrest would be an extra $300 unless you supplied them. Would have to check on the price of bases and sliders.

Also look somewhat like the ones that come as a factory option in Audi S3 and S5...

Seriously one of the best For Sale threads ever. Seat Pr0n.. ahahah! I so want.

I think I speak for some of the others (and some have already asked) when I ask this: when you say you're going to look into brackets and sliders, what does that mean? I understand that, at this point the seats you have for sale have options for recovering/head rests, etc -- but a total package of seat + options of upholstery/stitching + bracket & sliders would be tip top. Respect for your collection and skills btw. Thanks.

The seats are redone to whatever specs you like... reupholster, swap foam, custom stitching, you name it. I can get brackets for any car its just a matter of checking on prices.

All of these seats listed can be recovered any way you wish and i can get brackets for any car you need them for. Normally brackets run about 80 per side and another 100 for a pair of sliders. In some cases i can provide sliders with the seats.

[Wake]

Seriously sick work dude.

I will be contacting you about a couple custom sets, more than likely.

[speedgod^s13]

Curious as how much shipping to 96816 would be for a pair of seats? Just so I have a general idea, of how much everything would cost.

This might not seem recaro related but it actually is. This is the same grade of metal that i have found in many of the knock offs. It terrible quality and although this is a dramatic example its a good example why you should always steer clear of knock offs... its not just a sales pitch to get you to spend more money...
