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 I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
