Hi Guys

Need some help here, im 6,2-6,2 in height and not the smallest guy so my dream car was a 34 i currently have a V35 and want to get the 34. When i sit in the 34 my head is brushing the roof and my legs are touching the wheel and ebrake. Does anyone know if i am able to extend the seat rails and put a lower seat in so i can move it back further and drop a smaller wheel into the car to allow me to fit?

(If this is posted in worng spot my bad)

Buy some aftermarket super low rails, but not sure if they will fit your stock seat, you might need to change your seat too..

I would love to do this, has anyone done this? i dont want to buy the car fit the rails then not fit.

im 6-4 n weigh in at 128 kgs i got a 33 n fit in

it fine however my sister has a 33 but has a deep dish drift

steering wheel and gtr seat and it makes heaps of difference

there is heaps more room in hers than

mine and my knee clears her turbo timer which

is mounted down the bottom left under the dash which

it didnt before maybe u could look at something similar for the 34

i imagine gtr seats and a new steerin wheel would be a fair bit cheaper

than a tt kit for a v lol

Tall guys make imports look so small. My mate is 6 foot something, like a tree, he took my silvia for a spin and when he drove back in the driveway I swear my car looked like a go kart with him in it.

Cars where designed for petite little japanese peoples I guess

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
