Hey guys and girls,

Im planning to get leather retrim for my 34, just wanted to find out if anyone has experience with either Proseats or Ultimate Auto Trim, i want to go with one of these two but having read a couple of different threads, there are a few complaints about Proseats being hard to install with lots of zip ties, etc. On the other hand i havent heard much about UAT, so i dunno what they are like.

So basically what i want to do is get white door inserts, mojority black seats, with perforated grey leather in the middle, kind of like the stock sort of look but in leather. And then i wanted GT embroidered on the seats.

I know Proseat do the GT embroidery, but UAT dont give it as an example?

So basically i just wanted to find out if anyone has used either of the companies and what their opinions are? And how good the end product is, do the seats look factory like the companies claim? I know UAT have a 100% satisfaction guarantee, but i dont want the hassel if im not satisfied lol.

Cheers for any help

Seems there are a few of us wanting the same thing, perhaps a group buy is in order?

First i would really like to know who is best though. I emailed all 3 companies today, including JCTrimming, so hopefully i get my quotes back soon.

Has no one on the forum had any work done by any of these guys? And i mean like full retrims, seats and everything

this is the only pic i have atm untill i get home from up north, but they did the door infills, elbow pads, center console, gear shift boot and the seats and head rests, all Italian leather, all double stitched in silver, the ute is sold but remains in the club, i saw it at the Perth Performance Motorshow and its still in excellent condition and its still a daily driver for the new owner too, so i couldnt recomend them anymore, if anything, atleast go to their shop and check em out!!

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
