Default got rid of my GT3 Seats - what a difference!

I just took out my GT3 seats and relaced them with 993 OEM seats. WOW what a difference in ride comfort - the GT3's were great and kept you in place, but too hard on my back.

993 seats feel awesome much more comfortable for me. I'm gonna miss that snag feel!

I installed a set of the RSA sport seats in my 91 and WOW, what a wonderful difference from the stockers. Hold me in exceptionally well, and offer the plush comfort of the factory seat. Heavy though....

I agree the GT3 seats are great for track cars but too harsh for street driving. I replaced my seats in my turbo with Recaro Sportster CS's Best of both worlds support and comfort all in one.

These are pictures from the website. The issue I had with them was that the leather color is more charcoal than black so I dyed them to match which worked out fine. You also have to remove the inside adjuster **** and lower cover. It is not detectable at all.

These are the best pictures i have of the interior.

They look great...they seem like a good cross between OEM and race seats...
