Hi all,

I desperately need some help.

I have a problem with my drivers seat, the seat is quite loose and I believe the seat rails have either broken away from the car or the seat itself.

I am trying to track down a solution to this problem . I have located a replacement drivers seat however the seat is a cloth sided one while mine is leather sided. Soo...

If this is my only option could I swap the rails over from the new seat to my old one?

If the first doesn't work are the coupe / sedan seats and rails interchangeable ?

Any advice would be appreciated.

BTW I have a V35 350GT8 sedan premium edition

And live in NSW just north of Sydney .

Thanks

^^ I had contemplated this however my mechanic is pretty sure from looking at it in the car it is a problem with the rails , however advised me to source a new seat or rails first because he feels if we take it out of the car we could well and truly stuff the rails and I will not have a car to drive then.

on my coupe the height adgustment rod snapped, i just got it welded. the seat comes out real easy, just 4 bolts, and a few clip plugs, you can get it out in 5 mins, take it out and have a look for a break.

This sounds like this may be the case as my seat rocks back and forth , all the electrics still work but whatever position you put the seat in it rocks

if your going to take the seat out make sure you disconnect the battery as i recall there being an issue with the airbag light coming on and staying on once the wires are unplugged.

should be some forum topics on G35 driver about it.

I found this thread today while looking for solutions to my "electric seat switches on passenger side do not work anymore", and when I did a google search I found a video that was uploaded literally 10 minutes ago and it's exactly what you were looking for, just 10 years late, hope it helps!

    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
