Get Rsx or s2000 seats on Ebay or from another PO member and custom make some brackets.

RSX seats are a bit high for my taste, and S2000 are a bit low. I think custom bracket might fix that, but I'm not sure. I'm about 5'11", and when I put a helmet on, it brushes the ceiling and is kind of annoying before a run. I have a thread up in members' rides with my interior pics, let me know if you want my RSX seats.

the RSX & S2K have the adjustable lumbar support, and the bolster is f*cking awesome.

I liked my leather 5th gen seats. WAY more comfy than the cloth and made the car feel 100000000x newer.

I miss my Audi seats, the 5g seating position has to much gangsta lean for me.

Fifth gen seats blow. I had Sparcos and sold them, but had to get something else after putting the stockers in. I am 6'1" and just put in some S2k seats about a week ago (got them for $360, Lord knows I won't sell them for that little ), and I love them. My head doesn't hit the ceiling anymore

most comfortable adjustable seats I've ever tried have been the Cobra Daytonas. Kinda similar to the Recaro Speed but better built and more comfortable IMO (for the same price as the Recaros too). I'm surprised that Cobra seats aren't more popular in the U.S.

btw, they run ~$600 each not including brackets but are well worth the $$. You could spend $600 on one pair from Ebay and they might be ok for a year or so but it's worth investing in "real" seats if you plan on keeping the car for awhile (Cobra, Recaro, Bride).
