I was wondering if anyone out there has bucket seats on their R34 GTT.

I think the main question i should be asking is has anyone been defected?

Has anyone ever been question by the police about them?

Has anyone ever had a issue with bucket seats in a R34 GTT?

My importer told me that buckets seat in a R34 GTT are defects and you can get into alot of trouble from the police. Just want to know what people think that is all. :D:):banana::banana::bunny::bunny::bunny:

the seat must be ADR approved and the rails must be engineered

in vic (other states are different) if you install a fixed back, you need to remove the back seats and seatbelts, as well as take the car to vicroads to have them inspect it to check you have done so as well as re-register it as a 2 seater

however, most people just do what they want... it's a seat FFS

all bucket seats are detectable unless the come out from the factory or you get them mod plated.

Thanks guys for the reply. I kind of understand what to do now. If I was going to install it I need to get an engineer certificate. Also how would I get a mod plate by any chance. I live in Sydney if anyone could be of any help? Oh and here is a photo of the bucket seats I am going to install.

You may not need a mod plate as your in sydney, so im unsure but i know in QLD you need a mod plate.

Are they Bride Brix II? Im looking at getting a set for my R34, where did you get your from and how much?

Not to sure what exact model bride seats they are but, my importer got them for me, from japan for about $2000 second hand. I would give you his contact but, you live in QLD. But if still want to try just PM me. :)

    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
