YO are much lower than MO.

imo MO and RO sit too high for anything other than a Gias / Stradia or something fixed back.

YO should be able to fit most seats, as there is plenty of room to dill addition holes.

how much is much lower through.. i just bought new seats... again.. ARK Design Sparco's... they bolt straight up to bride but he only had MO rails so I just grabbed one..

If YO sits noticeably lower, then ill be selling the MO's.

and the drift seats? biggest waste of money in my life, all the bolsters tore within a week, seats too high, and the sides started digging in... should get a pic of the sparco's they are awesome..

Really, I suppose that is what happens when they continue to bring the price down. What are they now? $200.

They were $450 or something 2 years ago. Quality was great. Running one of those old ones in the S15 daily and it's going good. They do sit high and you need a YO rail though, RO was like booster seat.

It was the same with a Bride Cuga as well though.

They both say 30mm iirc.

All I know is that RO + Cuga = higher than stock S15 seats.

I'm on old solid mount + old blade atm. Need one of the new soil mounts (same as in the skyline) or a YO/RX. But CBF atm.

Enter the damn SnS for Track Battle. SAU represent. Plus cheap tickets.

yeh i got the bride book with me, they all say they sit 30mm lower than stock but they ALL say it.. id doesnt actually measure the height difference from the floor....might just leave it, the seat sits pretty low now anyway.. ill get a YO for the passenger and if there is a major difference in height, then ill get it for the driver side later on.. Thanks John appreciate it.

and i want to join, i have to see what happens with the tune on saturday first

on another note, Bank just sent me a free upgrade to Platinum...I hope thats not a sign that im spending too much money on the car... haha

Free travel insurance if tickets purchased with credit card though!

and something called concierge service?? anyone know/used it before?

    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
