I have an '01 S2000 and when I first got the car I loved the way the seats felt. Today I sat and drove Pappy's '02 S2000 and the seats were sooo much lower than mine. Actually it's the bucket part of the seat (or where your bum would be) that was a lot lower. It had that cockpit feel to it. It gave driving the car an entirely different feel. It was amazing the way his car felt compared to mine because of that. I don't know if my seats were just never like that...or somehow during the 30,000 miles I've driven my car, and a few minor accidents that the seats were maybe adjusted or were raised??? I'm not sure...but there is a BIG difference. Does anyone know if the '02 seats are positioned lower or are my seats just misaligned somehow? Either way I'm off to the dealer with Pappy sometime this week to find out.

is Pappy a heavier man than you? maybe his cushioning has worn down more in that area..

use the adjustment ...try three notches up and seat back all the way back , plus put a tee shirt or small towel in the back pocket of the seat cushion ....works wonders for the low back , just my two cents hope this helps , it did for me
