they wouldnt give me a price that nice, same value 1300 a year no at fault accidents and over 25.

I said I wouldn't, you're free to do what yo want with your own money.

However those fakes aren't really cheap either. If yo shop around you can find genuine seats for great prices...

Just a quick search

^^Those yellow in your car would look cool as f**k imo :P

Single seats in great condition show up in the 300-500 range too if you're willing to wait to put together a pair.

Edit: Even compared to Genine brand new seats those fakes really aren't that much cheaper. Things like the Zeta III are even almost the same cost as a real one.

the 2nd hand recaros, though tempting, would require work to restore, i'm no mohsen, so restorations, aren't my thing. But a set of SR3s wouldnt be too bad.

Though, any thoughts on the holford motors homebrand recliners? They look pretty okay.

I agree you are free to do what you want with your own cash, but don't be bullshitting people saying they are ADR approved. There is now a lot of people that beloved this and think they are buying safe stuff, which is just straight up f**king unacceptable. Then again anything that removes a few drifters from the gene pool can't be all bad I spose....

Also they are heaps cheaper dude... I know you can get genuine shit cheap If you are patient or know people (hell I got the bride in my 33 secondhand exjapan for $300 with rails)

But you can NOT get genuine seats that are or even look brand new for $500 odd for a PAIR

There's a set of confetti SR3's on eBay in what looks to be great condition - so tempted, so expensive :(

On that note, anyone selling or know of any 32/33 GT-R seats for sale?

Fair point! Depends what seats you want though

What he said

I'm not actively looking at seats

But these seats are looking joocy

Bride Low max, but with a CF/kevlar back

nengun-1990-02-bride-gias_sport_-_low_ma

Bride Stradia II Venus in Alcantara

318599_10150322164017455_137573528_n.jpg

These are $3,500 a set via Nengun LOL

they look tits but are soooooooooooooooo thin

I tried to get into athid's s15 and there was no way I could do it

Might be the brain not working near Christmas

But what do you mean you couldn't get into the s15 because of the seat? Please elborate

my passenger seat is a second hand Sparco i got for $250. faded and squashed cushions, so got it reupholstered. didnt know interior/fabric paint existed or else I would have just sprayed it. oh well.

so faded is easily repaired. tears are tricky though.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
