Does anyone know how to find the JDM Red Recaro Kevlar racing seats found on the J-spec RZ FDs?? Looked everywhere and have found a lot of rare stuff but not these. Thanks

Just ask Jason at JT-IMPORTS (link above). He can get them but be prepared to pay huge $$$$ for even used ones

Oh god, don't get me wrong.... I don't have the money for those seats, more important mods need to come first. I had just heard that they are ultra rare in the rotary community, I haven't seen them before, can't find them on any site, and had heard that they are $$$$$$$$$$$$$. Kinda like the holy grail of seats so to speak. Just wanted to know if anyone had any info.

1999 RZ Red Recaro Seats

$7400 (Pair)

$3700 (For one)

Dont shoot the messenger on this!

This is a dicounted price, if I were to go to mazda through normal channels and shipped it to you for free the price would be $8250



straight from jesse laus website. you can get them cheaper used but its about $3600-$5000 plus shipping from whatever place you find them at,also they are pretty hard to find. jspecacer7 who is located in japan couldnt even find a set for his car.

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD THAT IS REDICULOUS!!!! If I had money flowing out of my *** I couldn't say I wouldn't buy them though. That is by far the highest price gauging of any single aftermarket part I have ever heard of!! Unless of course they are limited production, hand made, or made to order. And they are Kevlar... BUT STILL!!!!!! Ha, even when I hear of what some people call "Overpriced aftermarket parts", I usually still consider them for future purchases.... But this..... I gotta let this one go..... WAY beyond the reach of mere mortals!!! Oh well, Mazdaspeed, or RE Amemiya it is

I see them quite regularly well the red ones that is, and all the prices are WAY OUT THERE.



I just sent some black ones overseas but==============dont ask these puppies are VERY VERY VERY VERY hard to find in good condition.
