take care of the leather, honda leather does not last as long as lexus leather does,
I don't think I could handle seats setting any higher than stock, my head almost touched the headliner with stock seats. On the other side my Recaros were so low I could hardly see over the hood, I added a 1" spacer to set them perfect.

i cut the stock bracket clean off the stock sc rail and welded it on, maybe if you went with a low seat slider made for the supra it fit nicely, its not much taller, the brackets under the seat sit higher in the rsx

Luckily I'm only 5'10" but I think I have an idea of how to mount them. Even if my head doesn't touch the ceiling, sitting up higher is gonna drive me insanely (no pun intended). I really wish Grant (JDMmuscle) would chime in since he just did the rsx seats recently.

In the second pic the height of the seat bottoms look almost identical.
