Alright,

Next week im planning to trade in my '06 2.4 and get an LNF but was wondering how do I tell if the car is equipped with the G85 package since it wouldn't have Recaros?

thanks!

 

look under the carpet mat in the trunk

 

Make a quick burnout and have someone check if both tires r spining lol

 

On the build sheet it will say G85 on it. I think there is something in the trunk that has the build codes as well. Another option is to decode the VIN.

Third option is the take a corner and mash the gas.If it lights up a tire bad..it doesn't have G85 lol

 

Haha under the trunk mat on the laft of the spare. Just ask the dealer to take a look before u even waste ur time going to look at it

 

I was considering a small burnout to test haha

Im really hoping the seats in the LNF are more comfortable than the ones in my LE5 cuz the ones I have now suck....

 

If they are not comfy ill trade u seats

 

i love the seats in my LNF, a snug fit, it took some time for me to get use to because i came from a 04 monte carlo ss and im a bigger guy lol

 

lol nice

Im a little bigger guy also and test drove a 2013 Civic Si and I was way too big for that car.... Seat was too small at the shoulders and my right foot kept getting stuck under the brake cuz the pedals were so close together

 

post VIN, I will post entire build sheet

 

Damn dude get a truck lol lol jk

 

VIN
1G1AP18X297288351

Thanks!

 

I don't know if it helps.... but at 6'3" 215 lbs I'm quite comfy in mine. I love the seats. Plus the drivers seat has height and lumbar adjustments.

 

I can't get it to copy and paste very well
but it equipped with g85 100%

let me see if I can get all this in here for you.

Stock Recaro seats = G85?

 

G85 was an option in 09 but standard for the 10's
In Canada at least, I know it was different in the U.S.

the seats have absolutely nothing to do with G85, that would be silly

Once 2008 came along so did the LNF.....same seats for all SS's

 

I'm pretty sure SS/TC seats are different than SS/SC

SC:



TC:

 

yah this is what I said, or tried to say, once 2008 came along, all the seats were the same.....like the second pic

 

Recaros in the supercharged ss meant g85. With the exception of 05 i think. The lnf's all havethe same seats just came in 3 different color options

 

For what most people use thier cars for on here they don't require G85

 

So true. There are so few track-guys on here.

 

I need it.

 

I optioned it on mine when I oredered it,
simple decision thou, it was only $680 or something and to add it after is much more money spent.
I didn't spend much time at the track, but I was heavy on the pedal almost every day, and oh yeah it was cheap.

 

This is awesome, thanks for the info!!!

 

You guys are talking LNF, I see I accidently clicked on the wrong forum.

As far as the LNF then yes the seats are no part of that package,
but on the LSJ Cobalts the Recaro seats come with the G85 package.
If not, some one should edit the cobalt wikipedia.org artical.
