Hi,

Ive tried searching but had no luck in finding an answer.

Which seats are more comfortable? R33 or 34 GTR seats?

Which ones are lower? (this is because im 185cm tall.. 6"2, and like to have the head space :happy:) and ive read somewhere in this forum that your knee could be hitting the steering wheel. in one of these seats.

The seat would be going in a 33gtst aswell..ive read that both seats go in perfectly. But the thing is, im unsure about the rails. Would i need to buy the GTR rails? or would i just need the seats and the gtst rails would be fine?

what about the seat belt and the buckle/socket(not too sure whats it called) ?

would the belt be ok with the seats aswell?

Suggestions or advice would be great.

Any info would be much appriciated

Thanks in advance

Peter

Great! thanks for the info.

just one more question..

If i replace the stock GTST seats with the GTR seats, would i have any problems with the authority? as in, if they ask me questions like,

are these seats stock or do i have any certificates for these seats being in the car?

i dont know wat questions they'll ask me, IF any.. but should i expect anything? how should i reply?

Thanks

Was thinking about putting new seats into my GTST but have been told that putting Recaros etc in were illegal. But this way is legal to do isnt it? What are these seats worth a a pair GTR V SPEC Seats GTR M SPEC Seats

someone was flogging a set for $1600 id say 1st hand you would be looking $2500ish but for $1600 its a bargin, id buy straight away..

Id say its legal as they are in the model above yours.. if they look stock you'll be fine ..

These are the 2 types of seats being questioned that i am interested in..

Both seats are good and look great..10x better then the stock gtst seats

R34 gtr..not sure wat spec though..but wen i searched the forum for gtr seats..a few for sale ones came up..

- saw these going for around $1.5k to $2.5k

R33 GTR - i saw these going for about $600 to $1k

Im hoping they are legal and wont have any trouble with police..coz i read tat some things done to the car need a mod plate and some seats need to be ADR approved..

so im hoping, just because im changing the seats from one model to the other doesnt get me or anyone for that matter, into any trouble.

Ive seen the first seats somewhere in the FS section from a R34, said to be stock R34 seats..

They look good, but im not too fond about the rubber look..

Just the thought of sitting it in with shorts and wanting to move, and ur legs rub the rubber..just doesnt feel too good.

i guess it would be too "sticky/grippy" for me

the first 2 you posted up are eastbear seats if im correct... not gtr ones.. gtr ones came in suede with blue stitching, red for the series 3 gtr R33s.

Eastbear seats are the first ones i uploaded? or the ones DECIM8 uploaded?

Sorry i just noticed i double posted within 3 mintues..i couldnt find the delete post button..

the pics in post 12 are east bear copies. they are not the same as the genuine R34 GTR seats and I wouldn't pay too much for them.

these are genuine R34 GTR seats (in my R32 GTR).

looks great mate! how much did you pay for them? if you dont mind me asking

how did u mount them in the 32? dont you need custom rails or some crap?

And yeah they are it .. The 34 V spec is the more uncomfortable edition and the M spec is the Leather trimmed fully sick ones.. Either way they are both similar... obviously different in material and a few other ways.

I doubt you will be in trouble for fittin them.. Only 34's and 33's are a straight fit for them from memory.. I could be wrong.. If they are GTR seats and the cop asks just say they are stock seats for the GTR and he'll be like oh .. well then dunno what that is but ok

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
