Yonaka Racing Seats - Interest in group buy/sale?

CHECK OUT THE SEATS HERE



Alright guys & gals...
Would there be anyone interested in a group buy on the Yonaka racing seats?
Cloth, synthetic leather, or leather in their many stitch color options.

Let me know who would be interested and ready to by here within the next 2-4 weeks.
We'd need to have a minimum of 5-10 to make the prices pretty good.

So who's in?

The black leather Ronin's are ****** dope.

But at $999 a pop.....no way i'll have money for that kinda stuff....ever, lol. Getting ready to do a nitrous build over the summer, so that'll consumer all my spare $$$.

Either way, I don't have a G to drop on seats, lol. My stock heated leathers will suffice for now. If they were haggard and ripped up or something, i'd vouch to get some fancy new seats.

Nitrous and an SS/TC front lip is at the top of my priorities list right now

But good luck on a group buy for these! They're sick, and i'd love to see some Cobalt owners sporting these in the near future!

they do look sexy, but keep in mind you can easily find Recaros off of a G85 or a RL for $400 easily. And that's for both the front seats.

Keep in mind everyone.... that the GP/Sale prices would be around 1/2 of what the MSRP is at.

Anyone interested at sale the pricing near $300 for synthetic or cloth, and near $475 or so for leather?

And yes... the pricing is PER PAIR.

Leather - BLACK seat color (stitch option of red or black)
Synth. Leather seat color - BLACK (stitch option of red, black, blue, or white)
Cloth - BLACK, RED, or BLUE seat color (stitch is same color as seat)

Shipping would be in this neighborhood - $85-90 to the US ($80-85 to Canada)

These would not bolt right in... fabricating the mounts/using the stock setup would be required. Here is a write up a previous customer did with a Cavalier install. Granted this is one person's attempt... there would be similar ways to go about it.

I know I ran a sale here about 2 years ago on the Yonaka seats. I was running a sale at the same time on the j-body.org forums... Had 20-30 sets go out during that sale. I know most were from the .org but don't recall how many or who bought from css.net.

Dealer list for Yonaka - http://www.yonaka.com/find_dealer.asp

They are fairly wide seats... They're not your skinny old dude seat I believe the Samurai seat is the wider of the 2 types.

If/when we get this running... it will go for 3-4 weeks probably. Yonaka has a new replenishing shipment arriving in January.

I'd be interested in after market seats but I wouldn't want to have to mess around with all the brackets and sliders. I just want a full setup ready to bolt in. Guess I'll be sticking with my red and black SS interior for a while. Not to mention I'd have to figure out seom way to bypass the air bag sensor so the stupid light wouldn't be on all the time. Nice seats though and definitely a good group buy price.

Might be interested in a set of Red Synthetic Suade seats for my Integra build. If you can do two for $300 plus shipping I could be in.

I might be looking for seats for a cross country drive. The suede one's are very tempting considering I was just looking at seats, how are these thing for longer trips? They look pretty comfortable compared to most, but I'm looking for an opinion. Keep in mind I'm 6' and only 160lbs (I play soccer, give me a break).
