If the 02/03 seats are so amazing why do people buy brides and recaros? Maybe they too lost out on life... I feel so inadequate now with my lowly STI seats.

1) Lower seating position
2) Better bolstering
3) Lumbar support
4) Preference of style or coloring
5) Something else to fit a race application or style application
6) Other
They '02-'03 seats actually are quite nice, but lack of lumbar support would definitely make me want to switch to a different seat at some point.
While they are probably one of the best Subaru OEM factory seats from the Impreza lineup they still don't sell for tons. I think the most I've seen is somewhere around $300 for the front set. Nowhere close to the $800 he thinks he can sell them for. If you are spending $800 just to get the Bugeye seats you are getting ripped off.

There are several reasons to switch seats.
1) Lower seating position
2) Better bolstering
3) Lumbar support
4) Preference of style or coloring
5) Something else to fit a race application or style application
6) Other

I am 90% sure this is the guy who blew up my phone for days straight trying to buy my Transmission and wiring harness. He wanted me to sell the transmission for 200 bucks just because "He only needed the center diff", and told me I was trying to rip him off asking for 600, LOL.
He also called me up at 6am (waking me) one day to tell me he was coming to buy my parts right then, I ran outside and stripped off the parts, but he called back 2 hours later and said he wasn't going to be coming or buying the parts.
This guy is hilarious, here's another of his threads: https://www.i-club.com/forums/interior-exterior-lighting-69/roll-cage-missed-drilling-holes-205861/

Not quite being inconsiderate about ripping others off, but the fact that he'd think someone would be retarded enough to pay that much for one in the first place. I'm surprised he hasn't seen this thread yet. He's probably going to come in here and start yelling at everyone if he did. That's what happens when keepin' it real goes wrong.
