Recaro Sportster CS seats question
 

So I'm thinking of getting a pair of Recaro Sportster CS (in the long run). Great thing about these seats is you can retain all the sensors plugs and whatever that comes with the stock seat (as well as heated seats). No warning light going off on the dash, good stuff. So my question is, has anyone had any experience with these seats or sat in Recaro Sportster CS seats. What is it like compared to the stocks.

- Do the Recaro's hold you in the seat like the stocks or better?
- How does fitment go for these seats in BRZ if anyone knows?
- Any disadvantages of these seats for long drives?

Please add anything that is also worth mentioning about these seats. Cheers.

I used the search but nothing came up on these seats....

Sportster Cs are very nice seats, but a bit wider than the stocks seats if i remember correctly.

Ah that's good. I have a broad shoulders so the stock seats are a bit "restrictive" in terms of that respect. If there's no sacrifice in body holding ability of the seat compared to stock then I will definitely consider these seats later on.

theya re better at body holding if you are a larger framed person.

Thanks, any drawbacks with them? Or fitment issues with brz?

no idea of fitment issues as i dont have them in a BRZ, they were in a renault megane RS250.

HKS Kansai has them in the 86 so I'm guessing it should fit fine in our LHD FRS/BRZ

The left seat might look decent in brz

Don't like the cross hatched stitching pattern. I'm going to be going for the simple approach of leather/suede option with cf backing:

Apparently they cost about 6k for the pair

If you could order it in this colorway with leather/suede and carbon fiber it would look AMAZING

I hate this thread. Now I really want the sportster. Thankfully they don't come with red stitching or else I would buy it right now :lol:

I sat in these at the SEMA show. Amazing.

Model above is Recaro Pole Position I believe
Read that Sportster CS is weighted at ~15kg, not sure in what configuration/material
