tenzo rally racing seats?

[echocluster]

there is a guy selling used tenzo r rally racing seats. he says that he has only used them i monthe in his 02 civic. he says he paid 1600 bucks and now wants $800. this seems high right? i looked on a website with them and it said $200 american each. that does not come close to 1600. do you think that they would fit in my 71 z? i am going to see them at 4 today. any ideas would be nice.

Jason,

You are correct about the U.S. pricing, unless of course this guy had them custom covered in leather?!!. I would be causious about the people selling the seats, based on the info they provided, and don't let your emotions control your decision. There are many good and reasonably priced seats that will fit the Z. The available seat width in the Z is fairly narrow and if you are a taller person you have to consider how much head to headliner clearance you can live with. Let us hear about what you encounter. Good luck

Yah, they look the same as the $200.00 units I viewed on the Tenzo website. Hay, you gotta give the guy credit for trying. Even at $800.00 he is way too high. You could buy 4 new ones for that!!! Have you looked at SPARCO or MOMO. They have entry level racing seats that start around $200.00 ea. Nicer quality than the Tenzo units IMO.

These the same things?

yes they are the same ones as on that web site. i asked him where did he get them and he said crown acura. i think he got robbed by the dealer. i dont think he knows any better.

If you end up getting a set, let us know how well they fit, and how much headroom you end up with.

Thanks,
