Hey guys,

I'm just doing a research bride seats for my R32 GTR, pretty pricey they are! I am a daily driver, not a pro racer or anything just looking for comfort and stability.

Anyway, could someone explain to me the different between Bride range such as CUGA, BRIX, ERGO ect..(such as drivers size, racing, daily drive ect..) I am currently looking at a pair of Brides Cuga, if anyone can give me oppinions on them and your oppinion whats the best one to go for.

thanks guys! very appreciated for your help.

The majority of the Bride range is renowned for being narrow and therefore not suitable for someone of a medium to bigger build, and for daily driving I would suggest getting yourself a recliner, not a fixed back.

Your best bet is to check our somewhere like Nengun, who has sizes listed against most of the different models - This will give you an idea of which models you will and will not fit.

Cheers.

For comfort and stability I find the standard R32 GT-R seats are awesome, it's what I run on the street in my R33 GTS-t :D

Before I got the GT-R seats I used to run around in a Sparco Sprint V. Awesome track day seat, absolutely terrible daily driving and road trip seat :)

JDM 32 GTR seats are pretty small - my shoulders are wider than the seat so you can imagine how uncomfortable that is... First stop for me is a trip down to JustJap - they sell Bride copys there, but at least you can sit in them to get an idea on fit (so i've heard).

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
