Hey guy'z

I want to get new seats in my r34 but don't know much about racing seats for on road use

I was thinking about somthing like this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BN-JTM-PAIR-WHITE-RACING-SPORT-SEATS-ADR-APPROVAL-/260812629658?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3cb9a4e69a#ht_5788wt_911

... would them seats be street legal in a 2door 34 ? ..

Any info would be good

thanks

Just keep in mind that there is absolutely zero chance of those rails fitting your car. So you will need to buy some Bride or Recaro rails as well, which are $500+ a set unless you can find them second-hand.

and those seats are utterly fugly, not that I would trust them as far as safety goes either...

if you want adr approved get some 34gtr seats or be prepared to pay for quality, the eghey seats you linked are not quality...

Lol, not everyone can afford a GTR or willing to spend their life savings on a GTR lol.

Back on the topic, I'm pretty sure that any of the aftermarket seats that you buy will need rails.

Rails can be expensive, but if you are lucky, you can pick them up 2nd hand for $100-150 ea.

As for seats, I've got a Bride style one in my car, pretty comfy and huggy, no complaints, bought it for $300 brand new lol and got given rails by a mate.

Might be worth spilling where you got said Bride style seat for $300 from ;)

the drift blade seats are ADR approved and you can get rails for them. they are a copy of the r34 gtr seats.

using seats from other cars, (ie gtr seats into a gtt) is not adr approved. as they are not from that car, so you can be defected for it, along with if you have to modify the standard rails on them, unless ofc you get an engineers cert for them.

    • Hi. This is just my curiosity because iam sure the tuner figure something out...but either way i want to ask. The "problem" is that the Nistune ECU (Stagea FW and RB25DET NEO from Stagea) sees many times the speed than the speedo does(he says the speedo show 120 km/h - correct speed and the ECU shows like 510km/h ) I told him that this car/tranny getting speed from rear diff. If iam not mistaken the RB25DET NEO "need" to see tranny speed sensor? (my tranny has the plug for it). So couple of "question" If he connects/wire the speed sensor to the tranny...are the signals gonna intervene and if...what if he disconnects the rear diff one and the speedo stops working? Or the "new" sensor from the tranny "take over" and will not going need the one from diff? As i said i know he figure/get that done...iam just curious to know what are the solutions 🙂 
    • Your IACV is set to idle too low. You need to adjust it via the screw Duncan mentioned. From memory it should be 650rpm with the valve electrics unplugged. What is it trying to idle at with the IACV plugged in?
    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
