the main way to tell genuine or not is where the adjuster knob is, on replicas its straight and on genuine the knob is actually recessed a little into the seat.and the metal part isnt straight its bent to suit.

I have asked the supplier and they said they are their photo's and they have the engraved name on the side.

I also just went and checked out some Gias and Cuga replica's here in Brisbane. The Cuga had the engraved name, the Gias did not

Not sure which supplier they came from thuo.

The proof will be in the samples I have ordered. The ones I looked at today were VERY good.

I think the Cuga will be better for daily driving over the Gias.

Can order any backing, FRP, carbon or Kevlar or glitter

i am way keen,

send me a pm of the finer details

The samples arrived today via EMS freight ($600) and all I can say is the quality and finish is VERY VERY good. Gias 2 is complete with all logos and stickers, engraved name up side etc.

Cuga has engraved logo up the side. All stiching is perfect and straight etc. I can not fault them.

I will post detailed photo's tomorrow night with NEW CHEAPER pricing, mainly the freight cost. May start a new thread as I can not edit the first post. Stay tuned.

did u get it in carbon or FB?

could be tempted to sell my r34 gtr seats and buy a set of these

Also, can these seats be used with the stock seat belts, or do they need a harness? If they need a harness do the rear seats need to be removed and is a mod plate necessary?

You can use the standard seatbelt.

yeah you can but its not as nice as using a harness and you have to do a good mounting position, take care to avoid the seat belt guide as best as possible if your in a series 2, and reaching for the buckle can be annoying, if its not an everyday car then its fine...

I realise it's not as nice, but I want to retain the back seats. I don't have the car yet, but I'm going for an R34. By series 2 do you mean R33? Is there a way to have a harness and keep the back seats?

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
