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

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
