ok, my Recaro Sports seat is still on the market. Been sitting under plastic in the garage for months now waiting for an offer.

I was going to get a new car to fit it into but that's not going to happen now with four children.

New selling price - $1200.

Not bad for a seat that was about $2000 new (and still is "as new") to get installed my my ex-R33 GTS-T.

Pix are on my original post but if you can't find them let me know.

Seat has to go! Once you have sat in this seat you will definately not look back.

PM me for reasonable offers.

Hi,

Any idea on how much 'lower' you are in the seat when compared to the normal GTS-t seat ?  

Does it come with rails ?

From recollection your bum sits at the same height but the front of the seat below your legs was tilted higher due to the base frame size and bolt on location.

The seat has electric adjustable height which pivots from the front of the seat.

Rails are built into the base frame below the motorised hight adjustable mechanism.

The seat interface for the GTS-T was done by Roman Autotek in Rhodes, Sydney.

Will require power connection under the base of the seat.

Very snug seat when you slide into it. Never tried it on a track but I can imagine how secure you would feel in a tight fast corner. Also good for four point harness with the holes in the back. This seat was the last of the Recaro Sports that had the harness holes in the back. Apparently can't get them any more.

Guys, read the rules!!

Talej - a post of yorus was edited, yet you still come in and post crap in a thread where your not interested in purchasing the item.

Daz - Im sure just_grouse doesnt really care if you would buy it, becuase as you say , you dont have the money...

Breber - same, dont post if your not interested.

In case you guys have trouble seeing, there is an Announcement at the top of every classifieds forums saying "NEW RULES FOR POSTING!! ALL FORUM MEMBERS PLEASE READ"..

If i can pay it over over time i'd be interested. i can afford them, just not the 1200 in one go. if it were say 200 - 300 a fortnight it would be doable.

If this isnt out of the question let me know... i can do a downpayment and stuff if u want.

Sorry for the delay on responding. Not sure why the auto emails from the forum are not notifying me any more.

The sensible thing to do is apply for a 2 year interest free loan through GE Finance or the like. That way the money is there up front for any purchase and the monthly payments are low.

I'd be a fruit case to let anyone pay me over a period of time as there are no assurances you would keep up the payments whereas finance companies have their butts covered big time.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
