Hey,

I was looking for some new seats and found on www.justjap.com some JJR Circuit Type Racing Seats. They are only $200 each and come with a universal rail. I was just wondering if the universal rail needs to be modified or will it bolt straight up? I also found that the universal rails by them selfs are $175 each, so seems weird that the seat is so cheap...

Did a little search and found that not many people use the universal rails. Everyone said they needed to cut and weld pieces together. They also said it made the seat sit alot higher. Still tempted to get the seat and try my luck but not sure...

Does anyone know what needs to be cut and welded? If its only a few pieces of metal then that would be fine...

Also does anyone know about the seat sitting to high? Can that be changed?

Cheers! :)

bride rails all the way... solid, work good, straight bolt in of course, worth the money...

$200 for a full bucket seat, you'll get what you pay I guess, considering decent ones are $800 plus

but in saying that sumtimes bride and sparco seats get sold as cheap rip factory second rips offs aswell.... personally i wouldnt buy a seat till ive sat in one the same to see how rigid they are and wat sorta padding is in them.... my 2cents

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
