modz 148 Report post Posted June 18, 2020 Look out for Mitsi GSR (evo 4 shape) recaro's. You can see what they look like in my build thread. Pickup reasonably cheap, nicer pattern on them than most, newer than fishnets and because they're in sedan's the flip forward mechanisms almost always work flawlessly because they're not needed. I have a spare rear seat if you need additional material also. HIGHLY recommend using the recaro to e30 adaptors rather than sliders and floor mounts from Scarles or similar as you don't have to cert or trans tunnel mount the seatbelt. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bga 96 Report post Posted June 21, 2020 cool thanks, yea, just seen your build thread, those Recaros are pretty much what I'm after, can live without fishnets I guess if these come up, will keep my eye on Mitsi threads to see if any come up, theres some on FB marketplace but are too pricey as they need work, cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Southerner 146 Report post Posted July 8, 2020 Maybe you could message this guy? Look to be in very good condition so well worth the price! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3AN 4016 Report post Posted July 9, 2020 That's ^ almost too good to be true. I'd jump on it. If you do go down the SR4 (Evo IV) route, not sure about fit for others, I have these original inserts in M Rain pattern, new. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bga 96 Report post Posted July 10, 2020 Thanks guys, I picked these up last weekend from the same guy listed above, seems he knows wreckers and sells on Recaros that come up, doesn’t ask the earth for them either, got these for $500 no rips or bolster wear 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghost Chip 188 Report post Posted October 23, 2021 (edited) @bga Bit of a thread resurrection but any chance you could flick a message to this guy for me? I’ve messaged him already but he may not see it depending on his fb settings. I’d be interested if he has any lying around. Cheers! I’d be keen if anyone else have some lying around, recaros / sports seat. Edited October 23, 2021 by Ghost Chip Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghost Chip 188 Report post Posted October 26, 2021 Yeah, have messaged him but no reply. It’s probably in his others folder that may as well be the abyss. Could you do me a solid and ask him if he could try find my message so I can directly contact him? Cheers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sammo 2544 Report post Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) @Ghost Chip Kind of loud pattern, but probably the cleanest pair of fishnets I've seen for a while? In AKL too Edited October 29, 2021 by Sammo 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
