GSR seats

[sickoffthe206]

I was wondering if anyone has put GSR seats in their car. I know only one bolt fits, but I was wondering if the rails were interchangable or not. Thanx!

i don't know about fitting seats that weren't designed for your car. while you may be able to get a seat that you desire to fit onto a bracket that will fit your car, you may end up testing the waters if you get into an accident. but i suppose that you are at the mercies of past honda engineers if you get into an accident.

your best bet is to look at the specs of the seat(s) you are inquiring about. you need to find the length and width of the seating surface,and compare it to the length and width of your current stock seat. if the seat is too wide, it won't fit properly in the car, regardless of the brackets on the bottom.

after that, you would need to take a look at how the brackets are positioned on the bottom of the seat..

then, you'll need to find out the length of the brackets on the desired seat. it's best if you can use the brackets that exist in the desired seat, so as not to rip out the brackets and put in your own, as it will decrease the integrity of the seat itself. it makes sense to find a bracket length as close as possible (if not exact) to that of the cb7, so that it will fit in the tracks.

synopsis: dimensions of desired seat compared to the stock seat, bracket positioning, bracket length of desired seat.

you could theoretically, if you didn't care about having a seat that slides forward and backward, bolt the seat directly into the floor. i've only seen it done in a 240sx, and it was a show car at that. the owner of the car was also a bit on the tall side (6'3") so it wasn't too much of an issue. if i remember correctly, you're not too tall, so it may not work for you. but it is a thought.

Honestly, with things like this, just pick up a set and go at it. There haven't been any seat swaps other than Prelude that I know of on the board, so let yourself be the first. Best of luck

GSR seats though are from an integra which use the same rails as the civics and other integras (ITR) doesnt matter if you want DX civic seats, Del Sol seats or ITR seats all use the same rails and havent yet been succesfully swapped into our beloved CB's.
