Hate Factory seats, Love airbags
�
�
I recently purchased a 06 WRX TR and LOVE it, however the seats do not accomadate my narrow frame (34 chest, 26 waist). I slide all over the place if i even attempt to drive aggressively, think autocrossing:devil:, and even short trips can become painful for my back. Normally I would ditch the things, and replace them with some recaros as I have done in every other car I have ever owned, EXCEPT i want to maintain some level of side impact safty as thats what seperated me from my old car and resulted in several months of not walking. Sides, that little red airbag light that comes on when I have the seats unplugged would drive me nuts. I am also unsure of its effect on the rest of the SRS system. Obviously I need a sportier seat as I race the car, but also one that can accomadate scrawny little me and provides either a side impact airbag OR something of similar value safty wise. If anyone can think of a seat that would fit some or all of those requirements I'd appreciate the input. THANKS!:confused:

'02-'03 seats. They are so comfortable and are pre-fat American. I have STi seats in my WRX and they weren't much of an improvement at all. My brother's '02 seats hold me very tight and are very comfortable. Some may suggest getting JDM seats but I'm not sure which come with or without airbags and also, they will be right hand drive which means you will no longer be able to adjust seat height on the driver's seat.

Will the 02-03 seats support a racing harness or is the bolstering adequet enough to hold someone like me in place w/ the factory belts? Also where can I can I get the things in decent or new condition....I will prolly fit them with seat covers anyway so the fabric really isnt an issue.
| surfer.tech | 12-21-2006 01:37 AM |
the 02-03 seats are bolstered very well and hold u in tight. of course im not that small. have u ever thought of rebolstering your seats?
| waypastfast | 12-21-2006 01:56 AM |
my buddy has a sparco torino? in his 2.5 rs, and just the drivers seat as well......amazing seat and holds you in place like nobody's business!
| elsanto | 12-21-2006 10:24 AM |
you can take the covers off and add bolstering to the seats as well..

I've had that CG Lock on my car since I saw that stoopid Tuner Transformation episode. The reason I got it was 'cause I would slide around in my '04 LEATHER seats. I position my ass where I want it and pull - it holds me fine. I'm 5'11 and 160lbs with a white man's ass.

STi custom stuffed seat. I have STi interior in my TR and it is awesome, but they could use being stuffed better for my skinny ass.
26 waist? I thought I was skinny at 30....

I thought those seats didn't have the side airbags? I know mine do.. and Katzkin even had the "airbag" tag sewn into the side of the seat cover.
The CG Lock definately works if your ass slides around - if it's your upper body I'd suggest you do more crunches.

They aren't plug and play. You have to swap out the passenger detection sensor and the driver side needs that driver seat position detector. Plug n play as in bolt in and out, but electronically things have changed a bit

I took the cover off the STi seats I swapped into my 03 and added some really hard foam rubber where I needed it. Shaping it took some time and but with some attention to detail you can make the seats whatever you want them to be. And as long as you don't go TO crazy with the amount of padding added the cover will slide right back on and look just fine. It will just feel a whole lot better.

I always thought I would like some more support under my thighs. A little more bucket in the bucket seats. I don't slide from side to side too badly (32 waist) but I always feel like I'm sliding forward. I'm most comfortable when my tail bone is right where the upper and lower parts come together.
Keeping my foot on the dead pedal helps but who wants to drive around like that all the time when not racing?
I like to sit in a more or less a upright position as that is where I can make the steering wheel, my pedals, and and the tach fit and be seen the best.

I really think the bugeye seats dont hold you much at all. I have a 34" waist and it sucks for sporty driving. I would not recommend them but if you have to have the air bag then what ever works for you..
| sperry7 | 12-22-2006 12:08 AM |
TR seats are awful, that was my deciding factor in choosing the std/ltd over the TR. Among other things of course.
There isn't much you can do (*to keep side airbags) except get a different stock seat. 02-03's are quite a bit better but it won't blow you away. I say get some Bride's, harness bar and some Takata's! If you got a few G's lying around after christmas! :p

All useful information....including the cheeseburger diet which i tried and lost weight on...... dont ask how... but as long as the seats are strong enough to take some serious abuse I dont need the airbags, however, I never had much faith in a fiberglass seat when it came to crushing strength. I also would like to avoid any kind of serious roll bars, since we all own imprezas here, Im sure Im not the only one who can say bad things about the rear visibility. And to answear the one persons question, im 5'11, so I'm kind of out of proportion for most seats. Also does anyone know what would happen to the SRS system if i pop out the factory seats. What effect will removing the weight senors especially have on the front bag system?
| srfrdude21 | 12-22-2006 12:50 AM |

What? Try adjusting it. My 02 seats hold me great, all around, and are comfortable as can be. I've never heard anybody say they don't like the 02 seats !

Ok well read my prior posts again because I am not talking about the seats, I'm talking about the use of the seat belt to KEEP you in the seat.
Let me simplify this....Think of a TR seat as a huge wall and the seat belt with a CG lock as tape...:lol:

Except that the tape isn't sticky and is only attached to the wall 6" away your right and left. CG-locks suck. Just buy a decent seat or add extra bolstering to your stock seats and then buy a Schroth Harness.. A CG lock can't compare.

You'd definitely benefit from the CG Lock - that's why I bougth one - my ass would slide around on the leather and I'd constantly need to push it back into the seat. After a while you get sick of bracing yourself with the dead pedal and your right knee.
I'm not understanding this hate everyone is spewing towards the CG Lock - it's the only reason I haven't invested in a performance seat. I pull that sucker damn tight, maybe that's why it works for me.

You will just get an SRS light, IIRC.
For a direct (and legal replacement in NC anyway), you cannot remove ANYTHING that is saftey related in the car. This would include seats. With that said, I have WRX seats in my RS, and I am prb going to do something with the STi seats soon as they have much suck.
Honestly, doing it legally is hard. All seat mfgs I have seen only give you 'sports' replacement. Until SOA starts putting the SRS stuff in the headboards, we are all SOL if we want to do it the 'legal' way. :(

Ive got an 06 TR and I just yesterday went and bought a pair of 02 wrx seats and the difference is HUGE. The 02 seats give you more leg room they are snug and very very very comfortable. THey hold me in place even when I drive like an idiot on back roads. Of course Im not the skinniest guy in the world Im 6'5 and have a 38 inch waist but if your a chunky/tall guy bugeye seats are hands down the best with side air bags.

[QUOTE=dowroa;16415222]You will just get an SRS light, IIRC.
For a direct (and legal replacement in NC anyway), you cannot remove ANYTHING that is saftey related in the car. This would include seats. With that said, I have WRX seats in my RS, and I am prb going to do something with the STi seats soon as they have much suck.
Honestly, doing it legally is hard. All seat mfgs I have seen only give you 'sports' replacement. Until SOA starts putting the SRS stuff in the headboards, we are all SOL if we want to do it the 'legal' way. :(

sounds like your most legal, and arguably best, solution would be to add padding to the seats. that would be the most time-consuming, of course, too.

[quote=02wrbrex;16410290]I really think the bugeye seats dont hold you much at all. I have a 34" waist and it sucks for sporty driving. I would not recommend them but if you have to have the air bag then what ever works for you..[/quote]
the other usdm stock seats are even worse.

Definetely try out some 02-03 WRX seats. I'm tiny myself (5'7", 130 lbs., 28 in. waiste) and I am always comfortable in my 02 WRX seats.

I'm not going to get into the argument of wether or not a CG lock would help the OP as I have no experience with the TR seats, or an ass that small.
But I will say that a CG lock is a waste of money. I thought about buying one untill I learned how to lock the belt myself. Its very easy to pull out some belt, give it a jerk to lock it, and buckle. It takes some trial and error to get to the right point at which to lock the belt, too much belt and you lose the lock, too little and you can't buckle it. But once you get the hang of it its quite simple, and free. Also for a while I was using one of the metal clips that came with my daughters baby seat, it worked very good, but since figuring out the self lockage I've rarely used it.
