NSX-R Seats

[simonprelude]

Looking at the link I provided it's listed as.............

The racing shell for newcomers to motor sports with FIA homologation. The RECARO Pole Position - pure sportiness. The distinct shell shape and a choice of colours makes your car into an ultimate "racing vehicle".

Material is listed seperately.

Hi Simon,

Thanks for the link. I called them and they said to order the seats as just a shell with cushions, would be a special order item, and would cost more than than ordering a normal set and just taking the fabric off which I thought was strange?? he also said the model to order is the "Pole Position ABE" which is for road cars and allows the use of the normal seat belts. Hes sending me an email with details and the dimensions of the seat.

Got the email,

Heres a copy of the dimensions. Anyone know the dimensions of the NSX-R seats?

Sudesh,

PP's will be the closest to OEM but are not available in the CF/kevlar however youcould always get them wrapped if you want the OEM look.

I believe you can buy the OEM covers for the both the R and S variants (S having the leather outer). I cant find the link but dro a pm to Frank on Prime for more info unless you have a decent trim shop nearby.

As for the OEM moulds, Detlef did approach Honda but they chose to receover them from Recaro and take them back to Japan. Whether they still exist and will be re-used is unclear.

Let me know how you get on with the covers please.

regards, Paul

So... if you went for the black in the pic would it just be £313 a seat + £30 for rails?

Sounds like a bargain!

Sudesh,

Can/have you enquired whether Recaro will sell replacement seat covers as per the OEM Type S and R. I beleive they will fit reasonably well to the PP's

regards, Paul

I think I'd like the red velour ones, any idea whether the rails would be plug and play into the existing fitting holes?

Are you going to get some?

Paul I havent asked that question yet, whos the best to contact Recaro or the Guy on Prime you mentioned? I would say the OEM NSX-R/S seat covers will be alot more expensive that the Pole Position seats themelves!

Luke , the rails I was thinking about would have been the SOS rails as recaro dont list any rails for the NSX, I was also thinking of tinkering with the OEM rails and seeing if a mod could be done to keep them and the electrics.

If I change mine I'm going to go with the black seats, the red will be more difficult to keep I think.
