Hi all

So, I went to just jap today, thinking I could just willy nilly and pick up their Bride replica seat, go and get a bride rail and pop it into my car.

No. The dude informs me that you cant use a genuine bride rail with this seat. :unsure:

And he says the universal rail will sit higher and you need to make some custom tabs, due to it being a half side mount rail.

So Im stumped now.

Who here have a Bride replica seat with what rail and how do you sit in your car? Can you also say where you got it from.

I have searched and found 1 thread from 2 years ago haha.

If you come in here and say replica is shit get genuine. Then you sir can EAD, I will buy a replica because Im a tight ass.

Cheers all

It's when u order over a certain amount of pairs...... If u wanna do one at a time then it's around 250 a pair....

Quite a few of the auto joy style stores get there stock from there.

Thinking of getting r32 carbon air intakes from there.

Check www.alibaba.com can order bride replicas for as low as $40 good for group buys and most come with rails.

They sell loads of reps. I was going to get these Recaro ones until they gave me shipping cost of $400+ due to size and weight via air freight. Sea freight would be cheaper, but once it lands, it would cost more to get it cleared at seaports.

With a bit of search on eBay, I came across JTM Auto.

http://www.jtm-auto.com.au

There landed reps from China I would say. Some of them are even ADR approved. Based in Auburn.

What's the bet they get the stock from alibaba or similar?

Mate im going to be blunt here, i dont care for alibaba. Yes you get a discount for ordering bulk, and i have seen some that come from there, the quality varies greatly. This seat will still come out cheaper than alibaba with the expensive shipping and if you could get a seat for 40 bux.

Stop whoring with alibaba because last time i did math 350 is less than 440

Kinda got the point that u r blunt and not sharp......

Your research skills are good young padeone.

But no one seems to want to comment on how their seats are in the car

Perhaps visit the place? They seem to be a warehouse open to public (because they list their address publicly). I'm going to grab some maybe in a few weeks. If you haven't got it by then, will let you know how I go.

Going to get some off eBay... Search seller blue33gtst he is in Brisbane and has some decent copies bit pricier but look the part. A mate got some for his s13 and they are actually quite decent stitching/material

I got one of of those, they look the goods.

Had to sell it though, the girlfriend's hips couldnt get comfortable.

So I bought some Recaro SR3's

Ah true yeah they actually look not too bad, looking at these... not bad for 750 a pair I guess, my mate got some other bride copy ones and they were pretty good, hoping they are all like that & he didnt just get a good pair!

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
