Yes it is true, they do fit!

If you are tall, this could be the perfect mod for you, they sit approximately 90mm (yes 90mm!) lower than the factory S1 seats. If you are any shorter than say 5'10" then you probably won't see enough bonnet so this is really only a good idea if you need the extra head room. And once you have seats with some support the suspension upgrades move way up the list, rather than sliding from side to side in the seat you can really feel the body roll!

They look good in the car too, IMO anyway, pictures now added.

Cheers

Luke

do you need to change the rails to GTR ones, or do you just use the stagea ones?

The factory rails on either Stagea or GTR are not removable, they are part of the seat base.

You use the complete GTR seat and bolt it straight in, but they sit alot lower as noted above

All R32, R33 and R34 GTR are interchangable. R34 GTT RWD are not as they have a different floor pan.

There maybe a remote chance a RWD Stagea floor pan could be different like the r34 GTT RWD is. This would have to be confirmed. Also most people are not aware the RWD Stagea has different front strut towers than a 4WD Stagea, this is due to the different front suspension setup.

So, does this mean the seats aren't height adjustable the way the Stagea seats are?

If not, then I might stick with the stockies, but the the GTR seats sure do look the biz.

You could add these GTR material matching rear seat and door trims like these I have spare :happy:

Nice! look a little grubby... got any better shots? Is that the auction photo or yours?

Nice work Luke GTR seats are tough, i nearly bought some about a month ago but the guy sold the drivers side on me so there was no point me buying just a passenger.

Would you mind pming me where you got them and a price etc...

Cheers Simon

Ps. I'll prolly be heading down your way on monday or something, when ive made up my mind ill pm you anyway.

Gtr seats definately fit because I have a set of recaros for a gtr in my stagea.

I know the recaros are for a Stagea as when the car came into the uk the standard seats were in the recaro boxes with skyline written on them

thread Resurrection! I can add that gtr seats fit a rwd stagea no worries.

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
