Started watching subispeed, Dustin, TJ and Throtl back in 2014 and I just want to say seeing where they are now I’m excited to see you grow to that level cause I know you’ll have no issues with it!! Loving the content brother 👌🏼
Thanks for the support! I'm going to keep on pushing out as much quality content as I am able!
❤❤
Looks insane. Was skeptical at first about the red on red but it goes! Sick upgrade
Honestly I was a bit worried myself, but damn once I saw them I had no regrets!
@@KevinVo where did you source these seats from? What site?
Makes me really wish that we had a red interior option here in the states like they do in Japan. It would even be cool on the base trims to be able to get red cloth seats. Cause God knows that the almost completely black GR86 interior needs some color.
I want the door cards! They carpet might be a bit too much though haha
Dam that's a shame. I ordered the red interior for mine here in Australia. Must be a right hand drive thing, they only made the red carpets for RHD or something. Seems wierd they couldn't do the same for LHD given the size of the market for those is much bigger.
They look good! In my mind red seats in a red car is a bit too much but it looks like it works well, especially in a dark interior.
I think because the interior is black with red stitching it's just the right amount of contrast.
Thatdudeinred
Glad they’re making ya grin ear to ear! Awesome upgrade!
Yes they are!!
Those seats look WILD. Congrats
God, those look incredible with the red exterior. They remind me of the old Type R seats.
Really enjoyed the video! Do you have a guestimate at the kind weight savings between the OEM seats vs the Brides?
Happy to see you smiling again brotha!! Keep it up!
Thank you!!!
always wanted to own bucket seats but I've been afraid it would be uncomfortable. I'm 6'0" with long legs. One of these days, I'll have to visit a store to try them out. They look comfortable!
I'm 6' 165lbs and I fit in these perfectly!
Is the Bride brand really pronounced "Briide"? I always thought it was pronounced "Bride", as in "Bridesmaid." I guess I have been wrong all this time. Those are some sexy looking seats!!
That's how it's pronounced in Japan so that's what I go off of. I've heard it pronounced Brido as well.
👏 Excellent choice, I also chose the red Bride over the other option 👍
Fresh JDM red 🥰 👍
Oh, the Bride seat is also adjustable, nice I also drive my car with my seat recline back, too 😆
They're the perfect mesh of function and form!
I've been looking at purchasing a set of these for a while but I can't seem to find where to buy them. Where did you get yours?
I had a personal contact from Japan. Hmmm maybe I should start sourcing these for people.
@@KevinVo I feel many people would be interested
Do you recommend this for bigger guys? (bigger hips) Love the videos man, Keep it up!
Most JDM seats unless otherwise noted are made for smaller Asian bodies. They do have dimensions you can check out on their website, but I'm not sure I'd recommend this for a larger person as the bolstering would probably become uncomfortable.
This seats scream "quality". I don't understand why would someone pick Recaro over Bride. Even for ergonomic reasons, this just seem so much more comfortable.
As always a perfect presentation. Aside from the seats looking absolutely fantastic, your installation video is superb, flawless.
Seats are on my wishlist, but I heard the wait time is crazy ..
Yes, I waited about 6 months for these. I ordered them through a personal contact I have in Japan. I've asked if I can share their info and I'm waiting to hear back.
Bride seats are so beautiful and extremely stylish, but I am 193cm tall at 110kg. I don't fit. If Bride wants to be a major global player, they should come up with bigger sizes and receive a range of certificates from TUV to FIA. Please, please do.

Those seats are beautiful and look like they were made for the car. Unexpected and awesome upgrade!
We agree!
Content never fails!!
GREAT CHOICE KEVIN! Bride all the way (might or mightve not been biased after seeing how red Bride seats look in Maaya Orido's GR86 🤭)
Dope seats! But we need a driving comfort review sir!
I am obsessed with Bride's sister company name 'Edirb'. I want know which executive or marketing director just told the team "just spell it backwards and that will be the new name!" 😂
clever as hell! haha
Did you ever get the passenger seat harness situation sorted or na?
Wondering the same
Bride seats are so damn good! The red is the way to go, beautiful seats. I have been wanting to order the new BRIDE KING ZETA IV FRP KEIICHI TSUCHIYA SPECIAL EDITION MODEL IN RED that recently came out and this solidifies it.
Not my choice, but with the color together is pretty noize.
Those seats are super nice! I always dreamed of owning a pair of the black bride gias III’s with the bride logo on them. But I think im going to look those pairs up in the future. Now what I think would complement those seats well is a set of oem vertex steering wheel on the car 👌🏼
The seats look awesome. They match the car very well. Looking like Max Orido’s.
they look awesome! i wonder if the back seats are now more usable, they definitely free some space for more legroom but can you fit your shoes underneath them?
There is a bit more space, but I don't think I'd want to stuff an adult back there still.
Looks so good! Time to get red seatbelts. Check out Safety Restore they can swap your belts and reskin the OEM ones!
Did these provide additional headroom?
They look amazing.
No better feeling when car parts show up at the door.
dont tempt me to buy a gr86. it looks so sick how your project is coming out so far.
Been loving all your content my man, recent subscriber/supporter. You're doing great and can wait to see more 86 content. Love all the mods you've done so far, I would absolutely love to see some MPG increasing mods if possible!
Great vid bro keep moving forward!!!
Looks soooo damn clean man! Was thinking maybe a red shifter boot or knob just to give it that last accent of red in the inside? Nothing too crazy or tacky but either way, absolute fire as usual
Beautiful looking seats, love the adjustability. As others have mentioned would be great to know weight difference. 👍
yeah
I forgot to weight them, but I will once I take them out to fix the sensors.
@@KevinVo Thankyou
eyyy nice to see the boy kev v, hey have you seen the gr86's that been popping up from out of Tokyo auto salon? theres this channel 39G japan that has a some videos on some of them and i think they look great other than that, seats look great
Made a video going over the cars at TAS!
I've actually always had an eye on a set of these since I was just getting into the car scene. I think they look amazing, definitely compliment the red on red with the carbon fiber accents; extremely tasteful!
The seats look great! Did you happen to weigh them vs stock?
Forgot to, but I will when I take them out to fix the sensors!
Yo anyone know where to get those SEATS? They are 🔥🔥🔥
I may need to start selling them.
@@KevinVo where? Haha
lmao I need a second one and cant even find one in stock anywhere...(canada) Have to wait until spring.. fml
The wait was truly dreadful for these.
These reds were my vote! And I was not disappointed at all. They look great! Well done!
Hey Kevin! I’ve been curious what your thoughts are on these seats after having them for awhile now? And how the bolstering compares to stock, even though it’s a more mild side bolstering than other seats do you still feel pretty planted? Ty! Great videos!
Gosh its so cool opening the garage and seeing the GR86 and FRS. Great video as always, seats looks absolutely stunning!
I wish Toyota offered the Recaro 86 GR seats as a factory option in the US. Keeps the side airbag and won't risk invalidating the warranty.
Are the bolsters wider in the Bride seats? The stock seats bolsters cut into my chonky sides.
Eh, these might be tighter if anything.
Keeps getting better and better, keep it up brother!
Did you order straight from Japan? How much was it?
I wish i knew to put the large bolt through where the buckle goes... BEFORE i put the seat on the rails... >:(
"Mooooom, the weird guy with the silly red cars is filming himself outside again"
Jokes aside, the seats look really good! Planning to do this myself at some point
Waiting to hit 100k subs
Is the back thinner than the stock seat? Does it give you more leg room for the rear?
Bride > everything! That occupancy sensor will be great info for my 2020 STI build
Seats are fire!!!! I’m sure there some weight savings there as well… how heavy are the stock seats vs the Brides??
waiting for the solution of the occupancy sensor, that is the only thing hold me back getting bucket seats.
So these are reclinable? If they sell them in black then I might get one for my 2013 GT86 too 😬 Whats the name of this seat?
I just hope these dont sit too high up since im 6'2 and I only have about a finger width of head space away from hitting the roof
Yes, these are reclinable. They're Bride Stradia III seats. The actually sit lower than the stock seats so they'll give you a bit more clearance.
@@KevinVo Thank you for that information, on the wishlist they go
open new parts is all the time soooooo niceeeeee!
do you sit lower in the car with these seats?
Cant wait to see more great content, should be taking delivery of my 23 BRZ at the end of the month
So clean.. can't wait get a set for my fa5.
I been eyeing seats all this time... got any recommendations for replacing the heated seats from the BRZ? Are there even heated bucket seats?
You'd likely have to install aftermarket heating elements to get heated bucket seats.
@@KevinVo Thank you. Will keep that in mind for the future!
found your channel when you lost your job, stuck around like many many others. LOVE them seats man that rides looking great!:)
Welcome aboard! Appreciate your support!
@Kevin Vo Been loving all your content my man, recent subscriber/supporter. You're doing great and can wait to see more 86 content. Love all the mods you've done so far, I would absolutely love to see some MPG increasing mods if possible!
Looks great! First comment as a new subscriber!
Awesome! Thank you for the support!
Can u help to put link for that chair? Where to buy i mean? Thank you
I bought them from a contact I have in Japan. You can find them on at Vivid Racing or Evasive.

@@KevinVo Thank u for ur info Kevin
Have you installed a 6 point harness in it yet or know anyone that has and documented it by chance? Got the new race seat in the widebody easy enough but not sure the right way to mount the new 6 point harness :/
Excellent video! I am looking at a Bride seats recently for my car which I drive mostly on track. Would this suffice you think? I am thinking between this, the GIAS III or even a fixed bucket seats. Any good suggestions here? :)
Kev, does the black stripes bother you?
Not at all!
Red on red looks dope!!!
Hi Kevin, I have a couple of questions please.
I heard that I can install the heating system in the original seats for around 400€ if I dont have the premium model. Do you think that would be possible to do it on that Bride Seats ? I want to buy them.
The second question is maybe not for you. I live in Europe and I know that many modification on the car must be Homologated / validated by the technical inspection. Someone knows if the swap of the seats must be also homologated ?
Thanks for your videos, I bough this car thanks to you and I will install many parts after I saw which ones you installed on.
I found today the answer to the second question. If the seats comes with an homologation sheet from manufacturing then is not needed to pay for a validation. Just save this document with the car and thats all.
Kevin why are you not posting sponsored links ? Would be nice if you link exactly the part you bought in case that someone is interested on it... even if it is not sponsored... For example I was trying to find the same seats you bought and I found this brand on many places but not this exactly model of seat I think. I found it for the GT86 that I dont know if is the same. ( maybe I am newbee and it doesn´t matter I dont know...)
These are the Bride Stradia III seats. You could probably install an aftermarket heating element if you really wanted to. I'm not sure on the validation process in Europe. I didn't include a link as I purchased these through a personal contact I have in Japan. I've asked if I can share their info and I'm waiting to hear back.
@@KevinVo I forgot to tell you something more, Would be nice if you create for example sponsored links of everything you have. There are many things you are installing in your cars, and maybe someone more like me, wants to buy the same item, and you could get an small amount of extra money from this sponsored links at not cost for Us and would be much easier for Us to find exactly the same part that you bought.
Anyway Thanks again for everything, you are an inspiration.
Where did you get the carbon door sill from?
Axis Parts of Japan
Is there a way to make the 2023 gr86 seats electric adjustable?
I know the keep them manual adjust due to weight…..but I don’t want the car for performance. Lol.
I want it for looks and nice Sunday drives.
I also only want an automatic. I know I know.
whats the difference between the rc and the rz anyway?
I'm assuming you're referring to the Japanese trims? Honestly I don't know!
Big up star gotta hav tha red guts in tha whip fam ur killin tha game fr my g
Keep up the good work, you will never look back being your own boss, looking forward to another video containing on these seats
So will this setup work exactly the same for a 1st gen FRS?
Hey sorry I have a question I have also just installed bride seat in my driver and now my air bag light is on (srs). I have the stock seat belt installed. What do you think is the problem? And if you know how do I solve it?
What is the purpose of occupancy sensors? I don't care if the passenger air bag goes off, without a passenger. Am I missing the point? If that is the point of this sensor, is there a way to just flag it always occupied and ignore the harness?
That red Bride looked really good as a solo seat, too. Might be fun to have one red seat for the driver and a black seat for the passenger. Looks great, either way.
bride seats or from japan i like japan seats lights suspension wheels tyres harnness steering wheel drift and cars
How many you paid, what is the price?
Couple grand depending on which model and version you choose.
Do you know of ANY aftermarket seats for GR86 that would remain heated seats?
They look great on your car and for someone who wants a fixed back seat I'm sure it'll be nice.
I'm guessing those are the GIASIII. Would love to see those paired with some 4 point harnesses for the ultimate "you ain't going nowhere" feeling. I put some red OMP harnesses that really pop in mine, and doubled up the lap brackets with the oem belts. Did the trick with the ignition on and connecting the oem buckle a bunch of times to disable the seat belt warning. Used the child seat anchors above the rear seats with lock nuts and 1/2'"x3/4" carriage bolts for the square shoulder to match the anchor bracket. Was super tight working back there but got it all done. I'll find out in two weeks when I go for autocross tech inspection if someone else thinks I did a good job.
These are the Stradia III. I believe the Gias III has a bit more aggressive bolstering which I didn't want to deal with in a daily driver.
Nice video! btw what is the difference in weight? Thx from Germany
Looks amazing, Kevin. Great choice for your car.
I like the seats; however, I do have the premium seats and won't be switching them out anytime soon.
Next setup your own shop and watch everyone come to you instead of ...... you know who.
I like that you let us know what you can't show us and will show us afterwards. Great communication.
Kevin, are you able to tell how much lower you sit? My helmet hits the roof with the stock seats so I need to drop down a bit. Also, what about seat airbags? Where I live it's a bit of a legal problem to replace airbag seats with non-airbag.
Any idea if there's any way to modify the stock seat to sit a bit lower similar to in the old miatas?
I don't know exactly how much lower but it does have a slightly lower seating position. The airbag is just a personal choice.
New seats look amazing, have you found a website for seats or is it just ebay, or maybe Amazon, love that you traveled to Japan, fun q and a videos, the break trunk bar is cool, hope companies make bar lights , better ones, I love my trunk button, lol so yeah one that make us all really excited for, thanks for the videos
You can get JDM seats through Vivid Racing or Evasive.
Looks awesome and functional. Your new videos are even more inspirational.
I wish they made aftermarket seats with airbags for the streets that you could easily disable for track driving, though these are already $2500 each.
They do, but they're very very expensive.
do the oem seats have airbags? and do i have to disconnect the battery i don’t wanna blow up 😭
How much weight did you save?
I forgot to weight them, but from picking them up I want to say maybe 5-10lbs per seat. They're not going to save a bunch of weight because they're reclining seats. Bucket seats would save a lot more weight.
I can’t find these seats anywhere can you please point me in that direction!!
Did you check the weight difference with the stock seat ?
Seat is such a huge part of a car`s interior and these seats really are eye catching 😍
Wow, this is actualy amazing. They look awesome. Luckily, i can save a lot of money not bying these cause im super bad at this and i would fail to install the wiring 😀
You can do it!
