Hey guys, would anyone if the low max seats sit lower than factory gtt seats? as I have clearance issues with a helmet on.

Darren, I have bride rails that are a direct fit for my car and I would like to know if the low max seats or any other Bride seats fit these rails. Or do you need to get different rails for different seats? Also are the carbon kevlar lighter than the standard priced seats? Or is just for show?

The seats do sit lower, a fair bit actually. And also maybe I got lower rails too.

I know for a fact that genuine Recaro SR3 rails will fit the Gias, as I have one in my car with the Recaro rails.

Yeah I've got a Recaro reclinable at the moment and my head rubs in my S14a without a helmet, I'm 6'1". The LF rails are $300 but I guess it's worth it for around $550 total if I can fit properly.

Im about the same height, though I think there is more room in my skyline.

So final decision is the Vios fixed back then?

Hi Charles, its Dimi here. I bough the car mats of you action-smiley-069.gif

I remember sitting in your seat and thats what I want. Nice and low!

    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
