If I bought either of these seats would it be possible to just get the centre part re trimmed in a different colour material or would they have to redo the whole seat?

& just out of interest, if you've had something similar done how much did it cost?

It will most likely depend on the material whether it can be restitched once the old piece of material has been removed.

Best bet would be to call up your local trim shop to see if they can do it.

Provided the centre part can be unstitched from the other sections then yeah, should be able to re-trim separetely. If you're lucky, with many sport seats that section is a removable cushion & stuck to the seat with velcro.

Will able to tell ya how much mine costs as I'll be getting the back & bottom cushions for my bucket seat re-trimmed latter this week. Also, have been quoted ~$350 for a complete re-trim of factory passenger seat in velour.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
