Hey guys, just wondering what seats you are all using?

I've been looking around just out of interest and these Bride Ergo II's stand out, being affordable and still looking decent. Anyone got them or have experience with Bride seats or any other seats for that matter? I know stock seats do the job and i probably wouldnt change my seats but it's always nice to dream ;)

(I know it's ebay but its a good example)

Cheers all

Have an Bride Ergo 1.5,

Very comfy, very firm hold and looks great.

It is also for sale now in the For Sale section smile.gif

May i ask why you're selling? :(

The Ergo leather is real nice...

May i ask what car does it goes into?

If you're referring to me when you're asking what car it goes into the answer is none, yet :( I'm just asking around and trying to find out information. That's what a forum is for, yeah? :(

nah, stock gtst seats are not up to the job.... :(

im running 33 gtr seats in my gtst and that's the minimum i could use now :(

comfy enough for a daily, and hold me in well enough for minor track work

I have been running the Bride Ergo II's in our Project Car for about a year now and they are an awesome seat for a daily that sees some track time. The recline feature is good for getting into the back seat. I do have a bit of wear on the seat from jeans with metal clips but that is to be expected. If you are serious about racing I would probably advise against a reclinable because it provides a weak point when in a crash. And I can't recommend enough how important it is to stay away form knock-off's when it comes to safety.

that's very true about the safety side of things. what sorta price are you chasing for a pair of ergo II's? Perth delivery.

cheers

a question about full fixed back bucket seats.

i have an ergo atm but want to go to a fixed back bucket, will the fixed back effect my standard seatbelt holding me into the seat??? like will the seatbelt just hang over the seat coz the seat is "deep" and not support my body??? cheers

I'd image you'd have to get a harness setup if you were to get a full bucket seat because they are more racing orientated? Anyone confirm that?

I'm running a full bucket (sparco evo 2) and it is the most comfy seat I have ever used.

The standard seat belt isnt an issue, it works fine. I will upgrade to a harness when the cage goes in but for the moment I am more than happy.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
