Hey guys, just wondering, Where's the best place (as in, largest range) in SA to find a NEW racing seats?

I'd like to be able to sit in them b4 I buy them and I don't want no 2nd hand shit.

I wouldn't of worried about it but my car's got a sunroof and my head already touches the roof, if I put a helmet on I reckon i'll have to tilt my head. (Probably not the most comfortable position to be in whilst fanging around lala.)

Also, where's the best place to buy a helmet? (largest range)

Cheers! (I hope) :P

Just get GTR seats, they're great, a lot lower than normal skyline seats and the best thing is they are legal and they dont stand out to the boys in blue :P

Yeah?? How low we talking? That's not a bad idea!

Now Does anyone have a 32 with gtr seats and a sunroof???

Thanks every1, especially for the links!

Flick put a set of sparco sprint seats in the 32. They are adr/fia approved but you would have to re-register the car as a 2 seater if you're keeping it on the road. The seats are really comfortable but like most "race" seat they are difficult to get into. I'm thinking of getting 32 gtr seats so I don't have to worry as much but it's very tempting to leave these in as strip out the rear and make it a 2 seater.

That's why I've never had more than 1 passenger in 32 at a time. In the case of an accident, anyone in the back would basically be screwed.

so would this apply to the r33 four door sedans or are they exempt from this because there's more room in the back.?

no, they have access to the rear seats via the rear doors. So as long as they are ADR approved fixed back, they should be legal in a four door. as far as i know anyway.

well that makes me feel better so i can go and get some approved adr fixed back seats and still have the back for passengers jeez that will suck at the drive in's lol.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
