So I'm shopping around for some new front seats. I don't want to spend a whole lot of money, so EVO seats aren't really an option. I'd say my max budget is like $400 for the pair, but I'd love to keep it around $200 for a pair. I was thinking about some cloth 2g DSM seats, or some S14 240SX seats, possibly Hyundai Tiburon seats? What have you guys used in your CSM's? Newer cars come with too much crap like airbags and electronics that make the seats super heavy, so I'd like to avoid that. Anybody have anything for sale?

Yeah, the only reason I was gonna go with S14 seats is a friend of mine has a really mint set he will sell me, but he's lagging on pulling them out of the car (his daily driver). They don't have much bolstering, and I didn't even think they were particularly comfy from the passenger seat, but they're cheap.

If your looking for cheap,side bolstering and a stockish look here are some junkyard options:
Image These are amazingly comfortable in 1000+ mile journeys, they come in a 2005 reno,2004/2005 forenza. They also come in black.
I believe the first/2nd gen USDM wrx's came with a seat upgrade that had no srs airbags. I would look for a 2nd gen wrx sti that doesn't have the stitching.
ImageFrom what I remember Hyundai scoupe seats fit in pretty easily and provide lots of bolstering. but they are short(perfect size for me) so they will make you look like your in a clown car(not that it doesn't look like that already :lol: ).

Thanks for the tips, guys. I'll have to start scanning the junkyards down here.
