Hey guys, Its been just over a month of owning my NSX, and boy do I love it. I bought it with a few things already done to it but they Were not my taste so they were Quickly removed and new pieces where ordered...

I just ordered a GT lip, and some new lug nuts. and the exterior is where I want it for the time being

Future: I currently have 2 sets of wheels I need to sell. when that happens I will start with the interior.
Sparco Ring wheel
nsx-r shift boot w/ machined round shift knob
s2000 push button start
new center console (DD cut out, with no ashtray) if anyone knows where I can get one please let me know.
black headliner and rewrapped door cards and armrest.
And deciding on POLE POSITIONS or SPORTSTERS C2s

or

Are these similar to Recaro CS's? I looked into them last year, but they are a bit TOO tall for the NSX so went with Pole Positions instead.

Yup they are the Recaro CSs, thanks for the heads up on the height.

Do you know how much too tall they are? I think dill_pickle has a NSX coupe, vs Synth19's NSX-T (which has less headroom). Not sure if it'll make a difference, but something to look into.

I'd vote for the CSs if they'd fit.

 

[dill_pickel]

CS's are 915 mm = 36 inches
PP's are 885 mm = 34.8 inches

How much head room do you lose in the targa?

 

[Hapa88]

I'm not sure. The only info I can find on the NSX is for all years and they measure the headroom at 36.3".

I had a 1991 coupe and now have a 1995 NSX-T. I've noticed that the headroom has decreased a bit. There's a number of discussions on it, just search for Headroom. I'm 6'0". It's really bad in the 1995 if you have a helmet on.

Then again, if you remove the Targa the headroom becomes infinity!!

I have CS Recaros, they are a little too tall......I had Pole positions too. Here is my honest opinion. Pole positions are not comfortable and you better be skinny to fit in the waist, I am 33-34, and they were not comfortable at all and they do not recline, so the only adjustment you have is to recline on the seat mounts which isnt much. The CS seats are really nice looking , and pretty comfortable. The CS seats rub the top of either targa or coupe unless you are 5feet tall with seat moved forward. Neither seat fits or is as comfortable as the stock seats, dont waste your time and money, I already have. If your stocks seats look ragged, or you just want a change, buy new covers..........

P.S. the recaros have very little padding compared to the stock seats, they both are much lighter than stock if thats important to you.:smile:

Just to throw off the OP again, I personally am very comfortable in my leather pole positions. I'm a 33 waist.

Im a 33-34 waist and about 5-8 at 185. Has been slowly going down lol. I sit with about 5 inches of space behind the seat. I have been in pole positions before and they were a little uncomfortable. I was also alot bigger. I would love cs seats but if they still rub on coupe its out of the question. Im trying to update the interior to make it feel like a modern car.

Is head room measured from the seat cushion or the floor.

 

[synth19]

If you really want the CS's (and are concerned about the height), I would investigate available hardware. There are some rails/sliders which can be set close to the floor.

 

[Texas91Brent]

I have custom rails made the lowest you can go and still slide. They touch or rub the top. I may have cover removed and modify/cutoff a small portion of the top of seat. Modify leather too, it's just a simple cover. We are all so busy changing the stock NSX, somethings are not worth changing, the seats may be one of those. I should know, only thing stock on my car is the front windows, doors and trunklid I think.
