Jason, what part of your back hurts? I had the same suggestion as Bass above (I have a little pillow that my wife bought me at WalMart)... But, of course, that's only for lower back.

 

I'd have to guess the top of my lower back. Or, the lowest part of my middle-back. Haha.



I think I need to get replacement seats anyways, I don't like the fact my head sticks up so high on the car. I loved driving it around this weekend, but I need to do something about those seats!!

 

uhm...5'4 150lbs....12 hour ride, 10 hour break and then 12 hours back home..1500miles..was comfy the whole time....

You're a tall guy, Jason. Oh, BTW, there is a mod to lower the seats. That might help you.

Lower middle back -- not lumbar I think

 

That's funny. The S2000 seats are Recaro's.

 

The only thing that hurts is my lower back from the lack of lumbar support.. I'm probably gonna get some type of lumbar support pillow.. Other than that it's pretty comfortable

 

The pillow really helps, Spike!!!

 

I drove from L.A. to Las Vegas and back to L.A. which is about 6 to 7 hours total, and
never had a back pain.
I think s2000 seats are great. I had Civic, Accord, Legend, 3.2TL Type-S, but seats in
those cars weren't that great as the one in S2000. I mean those are good enough but
not sporty enough...
By the way, im 155 pounds, 5'10''.

 

Hm.. perhaps Rick should make a leather lumbar support pillow.!

 

I added a lumber support underneth the leather and it really make things much more comfortable for me. All you need to do is get one of those dense foam mats they sell for aerobic exercise or the rolls that go under your sleeping bag. I found both at sports authority.

Cut a piece or two that is the width of the center of the seatback and maybe 2-3 inches high (roughly 10"x3") I did a trial fit before I stuffed the seat to see the best place for the support. After you locate where it feels best, gently pull the center section of the seat out and feed your strip of foam under the leather cushion while reaching around to grap it from the other side. Be careful the center section does not want to be pulled too far out! If you have trouble getting large hands under the seat cushion, get a helper with smaller hands.

When you're done, you should have much more lower (or where ever you put it) support. If you need more, double up the foam.
