OBX are great seats, these are awesome value, i have two black monaco seats in my 4dr 32 and they are great for all day driving and track use, and best of all they are on the standard r32 rails and are comfortable for the everyday driving. Good luck with the group buy.

Hey VIP32 did you have to modify your standard rails at all???

Cheers B

$500 for 410mm wide seat

duncster can you tell me what the difference is with these seats

cxan obviously sere a visually difference in the seat padding. but what exactly?

also when can i come and grab your forza seat so i can test try it on my 4door. bloody rollcage makes things particularly tight in that car.

sure mate, the Forza have padding instead of material on the corners on the seat where the wear happens (the black parts in the pic)

It also has a cusion in the base of the seat which the daytona doesn't have.

I picked the forza myself I think it is a better deal considering the similar price.

My car is dead atm so I can grab the passenger seat next time Im near it....ill give you a call

I'm just on the 2metre tall mark and want to make the seat lower in my r33 (I believe the sunroof makes matters worse for the head room) is there another (cheaper easier) option other than replacing the seat and rail?

nope! you can't lower the standard seat substantially without changing the rails - the floor is really unflat (I just invented a word) and the standard rails are pretty high. But even with low style aftermarket rails you'll only get a few cm back.

sorry mate I've never run a tape measure over them - and it depends on what rails you get.

I've just swapped to bride super low rails with these seats in my race car to get a little more room.

They are better than standard that's for sure

I would like some seats, such a great price for the pair. I would like the Carrera style as I think they look pretty hot. I also need some rails, looking to get more headroom with the helmet, any suggestions - I have a R33 GTST.

Cheers

Chris. also pm sent with same message...

sorry for the delay, pm replied!

regarding rails, you can either grab a set of bolt in skyline rails like bride (about $250 a side), or use generic rails and get a workshop to fabricate the proper mounts. I use the bride low mount rails because I have the same issue with not enough helmet room, they are about the lowest sliding rails I've seen.

Of course if you don't need the seats to move you can go 2cm lower by re-inforcing, and then bolting them to the floor. only if the car is a 2 seater of course.

Inline with GB rules about having a start & end date - this is now closed.

SAU is clamping down on these GB's that never occur, never end, and so on.

PM me if you have a problem. However, before you PM me think about this.

A group buy, is a group of people buying the product together to lower the price.

Buying single units here and there is not what constitutes a GROUP BUY

Thanks

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
