ITs REALLY amazing what a SEAT will do for you car...
Yea would have to agree. Only draw back is if you do run a aftermarket seat which is not equipped with the airbag/srs harness, I believe the airbags won't deploy.
But unless you have a harness that is mounted corectly and you wear your harness everywhere, which is a pain. Would then the aftermatket seat would be "safe" enough on the street.
Yes rescuers seat are sexy!

When I swapped my old RS seats with Hatteroo's old bugeye WRX seats. The difference in the way it hugged was pretty good, even for a USDM seat. Although, that ugly *** blue pattern on the seats matches with nothing in my car. LOL.

I sat in my buddies Evo IX, and I decided then that I HAD TO HAVE his seats....well not his specifically, but I was tempted lol.
They are a great seat. Firm, they sit lower, they actually hold you, better leg and side bolstering, yet they are not so aggressive that they put your legs to sleep.

To the people saying that replacing the seats is not safe is BS. I'm 6'6.5 and with the stock seats at the lowest setting, I have about an INCH TOPS of head room, so a rollover = broken neck. Now the seats are lower and hold me in place like a true racing seat, I'm not going to be flung around like I would with the stock seats.
If you dont belive me, you can drive my STi and feel for yourself.

If you want GC and not picky you can usually check with J-hot Imports. They're on ebay and have 2 warehouses with 1 in TX and the other GA I think. I've ordered from them a few times and they're very helpful and sometimes have the gc seats. I had the red/black tiger print and they were awesome and CHEAAAAAAP too
