Can't speak from experience, but I'm pretty sure Adam's blue PROS Galant has had Bride's fitted into them from looking at the photos.

Try hitting him up for info maybe ?

Recaros have a hard plastic back and are vented aswell,most recaros even have a mounting for an electric fan or even an active bass speaker but the seats are well fabricated with alot of venting areas

I came across this webpage the other page when going through search results in Google ;

Though it's from August 2005, I think they look good.

They look like Bride Gias seat....i should know, i have two of them, don't think the wife will let me put them in the Leggy though

I'm pretty sure there are Bride rails available so yes, they will fit. Personal preference I guess but I'll take Brides over Recaros any day of the week. I have 2 in my Silvia (a Zeta II and a Brix) and they are magnificent seats.

I think you'll find that most bottom mount Bride seats will be the same as Recaros. I have to take my Brix out of the Silvia at some stage so I'll see what I can find out for you if you want.

The Bride seats look mad, but are they fixed backs or reclinable? I was looking at brides but my car is a daily and they just look too extreme for a street car imo. Also they have massive high sides, i'm pretty tall so it looks like a challenge just to get in a car with Brides in it lol.
If I was serious about tracking a car the Brides look more suitable.

There's no such thing as a "Bride seat", just as there is no such things as a "Recaro seat". Each brand has several different models. If you want a reclinable Bride with low thigh bolsters, you'd be best to look at the:

XAX

Ergo

or Euro

I've already bought Recaros but those do look like comfy seats! Much the same style as the seats i've got coming, so I see what you mean.

The Gias are reclinable, used by Nomuken in in the Blitz R34, not that i'm onto drifting, but some people are.
I pickd reclinable as they keep the back seats legal. Fixed back can be legal as well, just need to updage the seat status of your car to 2
The Gias take a little bit more effort getting into but nothing like my bucket.

I have a Bride rail sitting in the cupboard waiting for me to stop being a Jew and buy a nice Recaro SR3/4 or Bride...

does anyone know whats involved to fit evo 9 recaros ?

 

[VR-04-TT]

Same as fitting 5-8

 

[Guest]

I just wish the stock Recaro's had a height adjustment or sat lower in the car as Pauls evo seats sit a lot lower than mine.

HHmm Simons Gias would look good in a Facelift with red/black interia. Want to swap haha

 

[Guest]

hey guys

Im looking at bride ergo purely because from what ive read they have a slightly wider seat pan on them and lets face it, im not a twiggy jap driver... need a little bit more for my western hips to fit in... ive sat in a bucket styled seat and it choked certain parts of my anatomy that id like to keep...

has anyone had experience with the ergo's that has some height and slight baby making hips????

the euro's actually look pretty comfy too come to think of it

 

[Guest]

Well if anyone wants to swap a set of Bridge's for stock recaro's+$ let me know.
