My understanding is R34 GTT is the only r chassis where the seats don't interchange with other models. You need replacement R34 GTT seats, or aftermarket seats with rails to suit R34 GTT only

A mate bought some passenger seats stripped them of the good foam and material. Then fitted it all to drivers seat frame so was mint again. 

Pretty good solution as most passenger seats are in great condition.

The cloth is better on the passenger seat but the foam on the side is just as bad. I have good seat covers that hide it, they just feel worn out. I have started to look at recaro sr7.

 

I think you missed the point. The suggestion was to buy 2x good passenger seats (or maybe just 1x if you only want to rejuve the driver's side) and do the skin swap from the one(s) you bought.

That's a....somewhat expensive solution to your problem. Are you talking genuine or China-copy? The Crank Motorsport R34 GTR copies or Bride reps are decent. I bought CF alcantara (both fake!) Stardia copies from him. I probably should have bought the GTR copies, but I kinda liked the f**k-you aesthetics of the Brides.

Running Recaro SR3s, rails are Juran racing (some Japanese brand). I do not recommend for heavy track use as they don’t provide enough support. Look good though. I will likely be switching for Bride Zeta 4s in the coming year.

I was looking at fake Bride seats but do I do like the fake R34 Gtr seats more.

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
