Hey team, Got some recaro seats in the gtr and the object that the seatbelt buckles into sits way to far down next to the seat. Does anyone know of a way of overcoming this? I was thinking a possible extension to the seat belt clip-in object? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, Michael

You should be able to get the frame modified and move the mounting hole for the buckle to where you need it. It shouldn't take long for someone to modify if they know what they're doing.. and I'd want them to if they're playing around with your seatbelt. Try contacting Idealseat as they are the Aus distributors for Recaro. Idealseat are in Melbourne but they will no doubt have a distributor up there or know of someone to try.

Are the objects the seat belt buckles into generic? e.g. going down to a wrecker and finding one that is longer than the standard gtr ones?

nope not generic, the eye part that clips in has a different shape, and will only clip into specific belt holders

ur other option is to the change the seat belts as a set, I may be going down this route unless I find a compatible seat belt holder from another nissan

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
