Hi guys! I have been driving my celica for almost 4 years now and i have noticed that after long trips my lower back starts to hurt... I know bucket seats + sports car combo isn't exactly meant to be comfortable for long journeys but i was wondering if you are experiencing anything similar. I love the "sitting in the car" as opposed to the "sitting on the car" feeling so I have adjusted the (stock) seat to the lowest possible setting. In addition, i have noticed that the lowest part of the back of the seat forms a small curve towards where it would normally meet the bottom part of the seat. Now that the bottom part is lower towards the floor that curve is pushing my back

njccmd is right.. the foam wears out after so many miles of sitting.
Personally, the seats get to me, I go on many frequent long trips and anywhere after 6 hours of continuous driving, the back pain sets in. After 8-10 hours, when i get out of the car, it takes me a good 10-15 minutes before i can stand up straight again. -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.
