Picked up new batch today.

Only change is the outer hole slots have been extended to suit GTT. Note: for the GTT it wont sit flat on the floor like it does in other Skylines but is still solid.

Just got mine.

The new batch fits perfect, but due to size of my extinguisher, it was in the way of sliding the chair fully forward. I slightly modified it (I bashed it with a mallet) to make it sit lower and it cleared my seat without a problem.

Nice work Ricky ^ :thumbsup:

Note to other readers this mod to the bracket is not required on any other skylines or Silvias only on R34 GT and GTT because they have a different floor pan.

If there was say 10 x R34 GT or GTT owners who wanted brackets I could get a special batch done without that bend that Ricky flattened?

seat bolt holes are slotted so max 461mm min 421mm center to center, max bolt dia 12mm. inner bolt is approx 20mm higher than the outer.

Pics in this thread will give you a good idea how it goes together.

I'm very happy with how this went into my S15.

Thanks Joe.

Have you guys gone over or under your seat rails with it - does it matter either way?

Hi Tinto, looks like you have heaps of room there. pretty serious seat + 5 pt harness btw :woot:

whether it goes over or under depends on how the seat seat rails are formed at the bolt holes. They tend to have a formed lip either up or down. My car has them down so bracket goes on top but whatever works for your car is okay. main thing is that the seat bolts can still get plenty of thread engadged and you can get them nice and tight. minimum 3-4 full turns of thread should be okay. other wise you may need to get longer bolts. also bolts need flanged heads or use a washer.

Okay I may have left this to the last minute but I need on for sau nats.. are there any available? Or is there any where that I can buy one?

I'm out but Chris at racepace may still have one: (03) 9762-9421

I know some after market seats have levers etc at the front which may be an issue.

:( i'm running Bride Cuga's and my lovely bracket won't fit anymore due to the lever at the front of the seat controller front/back movement.

Not sure if this will be an issue for any Bride rail setup

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
