Hey guys. I have these posted at NASIOC and RS25.com as well, but wanted to expand my market. 
I have a pair of front seats from a JDM GC WRX. To my knowledge they're out of a 1998 model, but I'm not 100% certain. Found them on eBay this past July, however due to financial constraints I need to sell them again.
These seats are identical to STi Ver.5/6 seats, except that the fabric is different. Mine are a black mesh fabric (with a slight blue hue to it), with yellow inserts at the hips and shoulders. I've put barely 3,000 miles on them while they've been in my car. I do not smoke. No food/drink stains. Excellent condition, except for a slight discoloration I believe on the driver's side, inside yellow insert. This was present when I purchased them, and appears easy to remove with a good cleaning agent.
There are, just like on the STi versions, lower cushion height adjustment ***** on the passenger's seat. (Formerly the driver's seat, as they're out of a RHD car of course.) You can take the seat base off a '98-'02 USDM Forester and swap it for the driver's WRX seat, and have the ***** on both sides.
Here are a few pics. Quality isn't good as it's a cheap little camera I got for free, but it's the best I can do:




These bolt in quickly and easily, using the stock four bolts. Best offer takes these! I prefer to sell somewhat locally (I'm in south-central PA), but will ship if necessary. Buyer pays shipping.
Regarding specific price, I'll take the highest acceptable offer. STi versions typically sell/sold for around the $1200 mark, give or take, and I've only seen 2-3 sets of non-STi sets, like these, sell for somewhere in the vicinity of $800/pair.
Thanks.

Sorry about the late response. 
I'm not really sure. They're installed in the car at this time, so I can't have them weighed anywhere to be able to tell, either. I know they were $250ish from Japan by boat...
...but that doesn't help much. I can ask around to see what the vendors charge for shipping say the STi versions. That might give an idea.

Yep, your car's identical to mine. The stock seats pop out by removing four bolts. These seats drop right in their place. Brackets/sliders are the same, and already installed.
They seem to sit slightly lower than the OE seats. Not by much, but enough to make the seating position more "in" than "on," which I like.

Not sure about the weight, but I'm asking some shipping questions of a vendor or two who normally deal with the STi versions. Maybe they can provide that info. I'd say they weigh about the same as the OE seats. Which is to say..... they're heavy. 
(Compared to some aftermarket cabon fiber jobbie, anyway!!)
My zip is 17019.
