Prelude seats in a fox body?

pavich91 · Mar 17, 2008

Has anyone ever put lude seats in a fox body before. Would it just be the matter of switching seat brackets.

Why? Chances are you would have to fabricate some sort of bracket of your own. Im not being a smart ass but
Im willing to bet half of us here have never been in a prelude before.

Haha, I like the odds of you winning that bet.

Why.. cause prelude seats are wicked. They are pretty comfortable and hug you like a racing seat. Just because you haven't been in a lude doesn't mean that every mustang owner out there hasn't been in one.lol.
I was planning on using my seat brackets from my stang seats and swapping them onto the lude seats.
All I want to know is if anyone hear has tried it...I bet there is a few people that have.

Not the nicest welcome. Sheesh.

I for one have not tried it, but if someone else has, I'd love to hear about it. I'd really like to find a cheaper alternative to new Corbeaus.

It can be done. I have seen Neon seats in one...

I plan to have seats in mine from a "different" car. I wont say what until it's done, but it should be easy to do. Make up some brackets, and although will be a good bit harder to do it and make them adjustable that too can be done.

I have been in a Prelude a LOT of times. Gril friend of mine in HS had one, LOTS of shop classes spent "in" that Prelude!

Never tried lude seats. 300zx seats bolt in no fab needed.

I had a Prelude before and the seats were very nice compared to the fox body seats. I think it would be worth it .

sell the prelude seats to the local honda kids and buy some used corbeau's or some flofits.

i mean hell, these are $380 shipped.

I've seen newer F-body seats bolt directly into a notch.

Prelude Seat Bolt On = 10HP each seat

pavich91 · Mar 17, 2008

Thanks to the guys with the helpful posts.
And I agree, prelude seats would be a nice improvement than stock tweeds. Very comfy and supportive. i'll have to look into the 300zx seats if there is no fab to do. Easier the better but I dont mind putting a bit of work into them.

bloopbloob · Mar 17, 2008

my first car was a prelude. how's that bet going so far....?
and they do have very nice seats, especially when compared to the fox seats.

Darkwriter77 · Mar 17, 2008

FWIW, Accord seats are pretty comfy, as well, and should be the same or very similar to those of a Prelude. Might be easier to come up with a pair of those, as opposed to Prelude seats...

My GF drives a '92 Prelude and the seats are great. Honda has a great balance between bolstering and soft support. My friend bought a new Ion Redline last year with factory Recaros and after an hour in the car your legs and sides are killing you, they're great in autocross but on any long drive you're wishing you had something else. My previous DD was a stock '91 Civic Si and it had what I consider the best seats of anything i've owned. They're a little thicker in the mid-section than the Prelude if that's what you're looking for. I personally love a seat that has great support and tons of comfort. GL with your swap!

what is the weight difference?

Prime Lord · Mar 17, 2008

Honda must have different planning that goes into different cars. My parents have a Civic Hybrid and it has the most UNCOMFORTABLE seats ever designed by man.

Besides, what is wrong w/ the stock GT seats? they're f'n badass!
