I've often wondered about STi seats myself.

That is until I found out how uncomfortable they are. I guess for daily driving and occasional spirited driving they're okay, but as far as racing seats go, they're not. Although they have big side bolsters (sp?) they are pretty squishy and don't have a lot of back support either. I have a friend (serious autocrosser) who has an STi. He got some actual racing seats from STi. I don't know what they're called exactly, but they look pretty similar. When you sit in them though, it becomes apparent they're really supportive, they even have metal in the bolsters.

As for me, I just want something to hold me in a bit better. I would really like some grey leather seats with thicker bolsters, like you would find in a porsche or vette or something. Keep us posted!
