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.

  • 2 weeks later...
  • 3 weeks later...

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!

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
