hopefully any of these question help

do want the recaros for the name or for the comfort? cuz ive sat in NRG ITR seat and theyre pretty comfy for the price (comfort is a high priority in a DD, i hope to upgrade soon)

do u miss the turbo and the extra hp? (save for the swap)

i know u can get the si wheel cheap from the dealer wit ur discount, but $350-400 at junkyard aint bad especially if it come wit the tires (i would recommend getting them used and if for some reason the si arent for ur car u can resell and most likely itll sell for the price u bought or if u do really really like it on ur car then again sell the used pair and buy shiny new ones)

Si seats are not that much of an upgrade from the lower trim lines seats..so I wouldn't do that. I definitly don't like mine. I also think you car looks better as is at it would on si wheels. Also your car is plently low for me. So I will propose a third option.

Keep your wheels/Get recaro seats/Save for swap
:werd:

Save for Recaros (or some other nicer seat, a better improvement over what you have stock)... save for swap. Might take a little longer, but the outcome will be much nicer imo.

I personally think recaros just thrown in an interior, look exactly that.. I think you should focus on certain parts of the car and do that all at once instead of piecing it together for 2 years.. IE get your suspension completed, get the exterior completed, get the engine completed, get the interior completed. I don't know what you've really done with any of those things.. but thats what i suggest you do.. Pick one of those things and stick with it.

I didnt like them because the pad along the side got in the way of the seatbelt (due to poor design).

Fine, recaros / swap it is. I hate you guys. :lol:

You have plenty of suspension/chassis work to be able to handle a higher power engine and put all that power to the ground and keep it on the ground.

Get the swap. Whichever choice it was included in lol. No need for more bling. You're already ballin'.

They don't look horrible, but there are much better options out there imo for relatively the same price.

Oh, I mean there are other stock wheels that look better imo. The Si wheels are just a little too chunky for my tastes.
