Hey Guys,

I got referred to this site which seems to have some pretty awesome seats at a decent price. Lots of styles & price variety too.

http://www.cipherauto.com

Here's the specific seats I'm looking at:
http://www.cipherauto.com/BRacing-Seatsb/Cipher-Auto-Racing-Seats/CPA2002-Viper-Series/Cipher-Viper-Racing-Seats-Black-Cloth-W-Black-Carbon-Fiber-PVC-Pair-Sliders-Included

I really like them since they have some serious bolstering, lap belt holes on the side, and actually recline. They have sliders included and they offer custom fit mounting brackets (many of our home fab jobs are probably less safe than stock!)

The package I priced out had seats, sliders, vehicle specific mounts, harness bar, & 4 point harness for $1150. Just swapping in 08+ STi seats had me at $800-$1000 w/ fab work.

So let me know what ya think about these in the TransForester or if you have a better suggestion. They offer bulk discounts and forum sponsorships too, so hit me up or the admins and maybe we could get these even cheaper.

Thanks for looking,

Adam

I'd be very careful when considering seats... especially knockoffs. Seats are a safety feature, and should be approved by certain organizations. Cipher are "ADR" approved... which is something I've never heard of. I'd look deeper before you spend the money. Let us know.

Yeah, I did a little digging into ADR. Apparently it's the Australian safety organization. And I'm not looking for fiery rollover on a race track safe. As long as they're as safe as stock I'm good with it.

I get what you're saying... I'd just be worried if they weren't as safe as your stock seats. With anything you purchase, just do your research... and then research some more. Keep us updated on your findings.

Will do. I know it's always a gamble going with the "unknown" brand, but I appreciate everybody just taking the time to look and comment. If I get a set and they turn out not to be safe I'll have an amazing pair of office chairs (just need the wheels).

I'll have to do some fairly in-depth surgery to swap my seat heat over and take a look at the airbag. So IF that happens I'll do a thorough comparison with the stock set.

I installed heated seats when I was working at Big Sky Accessories, feel free to pm me if you have questions or anything.
