Post a pic of your car as it sits currently

Tanner - thats a little tough to come by at times. Awhile back I did find a set of seats that were tan leather racing seats to match stock interior. But they were far from cheap. So I didnt go for it. The sparco r100 comes in blue/black. black/black. Grey/black. And red/black. I would do red and black to match the exterior a bit.... but thats just my opinion. But im sure whatever you have in mind is good too. But I think red and black would look pretty good with your car. May look a little off with your interior. But I really dont get any dislikes with mine (tan interior, blue seats) everyone is just suprised and like that I put racing seats in an alero. People enjoy it despite the odd color. Plus, at 420 for the pair. I really couldnt say no.....


Aaron - im honestly suprised you are still running stock seats. Honestly I wouldnt do the colbolt ss seats (depending on year idk how much they have changed) but one alero owner has the colbolt recaro seats in his car and im honestly not a fan of them. They just look small and tacky. But I think his are the earlier year colbolt not the newer. They may have changed the style of seat within the years... I dont pay attention to them much. But the ones I saw I was not happy with. Thats just me. If anything aaron just get the r100's. Its 130 a seat and when I researched I was 95% sure they would fit.

Corbeau GTS II's look good and stock and can't be any bigger then R100s

[sleepyalero]

Did you compare measurements? You really need to get the suze dimensions of the seats and make sure they will fit. Cant just buy a seat and hope for the best.

[gudge]

Tanner they have the seats in gray but they are cloth, they look like it'd be an alright match.



Also here's measurements I found on the GTSII seats

[TDavis]

Meant to look for the measurements but I had to go to work, thanks.

I'm not dumb enough to just flat out buy seats

[sleepyalero]

Hey, I dont know that.


Those seats are okay. But im not a huge fan of the styling of them.

Spotted in the Monday drive in car shows.

[sleepyalero]

Yuck.

[99ga]

Chaos you need to lower that thing ASAP!

[[ChaosweaveR]]

With time. I basically need $700 for the setup I want (including the alignment, mind you.) I may just wait for next year's tax return.

[sleepyalero]

Hes going stretched tires and coilovers with hella camber.

Only got so much money to go around. There's a lot of things I'd like to do to my car that I've never had the time or money for... like revamping the entire sound system. But anyway...

I don't know where you are seeing 130 a seat for the R100's. Looks more like $330 a seat from what I'm seeing online. I don't really like the look of them though. The padding looks too thin IMO. I don't want to pay a ton for seats, but I don't want to cheap out either.

[TDavis]

Got my sway bars in.


Anybody remember exactly how much bigger these are over stock?






Also MAC came to visit . Just realized photobucket compressed the sht outta my pictures, they look much better on my phone

Realizing after all of us opened our hoods I'm glad my car doesn't have all the gay plastic sht that covers the engine in newer cars now a days.

VW GTI comes to mind, but obviously not many will turn up in a wrecking yard.

Ahhhh damn my bad. Yeah 330 each haha. I like em though. The worst thing about seats is if you order you cant test them to see how they feel. Lucky for me I found a guy local so I was able to measure thebseats. Sit in the seats and all that beforeni decided to purchase. Everything was great so I snatched em.

Just installed my Voltage Gauge. They do look blue in person and not purple.

[sleepyalero]

Ah you went with glowshift... best of luck to you. I had 3 of them. Volt and oil **** on me in a year. The only one that lasted was a vacuum gauge.

Well that sucks. I have had the clock in my car for a long time now so hopefully my voltage gauge will stay working too Thanks for the heads up though.

[sleepyalero]

Hey no problem man. Not trying to trash on what you bought. Just saying I had a bad experience.

[TDavis]

Maybe happening for me too. My Oil temp gauge after my car has been running for a while will go nuts and jump all over the place. Oil pressure does it sometimes but rarely, Volt gauge has been fine.
