GTR...hammered seats?

[IOWNU]

Hey guys...

LoLz...one of my m8s has decided to (and actually purchased) a GTR from japan. It looks clean from the outside......but its seats look like the R32 Four Doors! Pretty ugly! He sent me these pics.

I'm guessing something went wrong and the owner fitted in GTST seats, OR it was some sort of whacked factory option????

WTH????

GTS-4 with RB26 conversion ... or GTR with seat downgrade :S check the VIN number and all will be revealed doubt it would have been a factory option for GTS-t seats...

[Sarumatix]

yup almost certainly a GTS4 with RB26dett. But check the chassis number!!! Is it HNR or BNR etc etc.

[Nozila]

looks very suspicious. Cant seem to see a factory front mount on there.

Definately a gtr with gts seats. it's got everything a gtr should except the seats.

[slow13dude]

Does it have the GTR rear seats (I can't tell), the blue/grey ones?

[sav1]

definetly a gtr, probably had aftermarket seats and the owner has kept them, rather than buying gtr seats to put back in he has gone for the cheaper option.

There is no way you would go to the trouble of changing a gts4, guards, spoilers, motor etc then be a tight arse and not change the seats

[racsov500]

yes i think its alot off effort to 'make' it a gtr. i think the old seats were secrewed or there were aftermarket ones and the owner just put old ones in it when he sold it, as sav1 said

[[[d a n n y]]]

hm..it's got the sunvisors..

dang i want 1

Yeah i think its a seat downgrade if anything.

I mean the dash looks the same as well! It's even got the 3 battery voltage, oil temp and boost tachos in the middle!!

Probably sold the car with cheaper seats. By the way those aren't normal GTST seats, those are the 4 door seats (normal GTST seats are a sorty of browny colour, but the seat material isn't the similar to the 180/Silvia as is the case here)........i think they're EVEN cheaper than standard GTST seats. So unless the car was initially a four door, then transformed into a coupe, its a GTR.......i think?

it's definitely a gtr

the old owner probably pulled the seats out and flogged them off separately and sold the car to your mate for a pittance.

the rear guards seem to jut out a lil just like a real GTR. I can see some shiny metal which resembles an intercooler. Also there's R34 pedals on the car if no one noticed Also the door trim is velour, wheras the seats are poverty model. The back seat has the contour in the middle of a GTR seat (and no headrests like in a regular GTS/GTSt/GTS4/GTE/GXi).

My conclusion... the previous owner had bucket seats in the car, didn't wanna part with em, so he took em out and put the cheapest seats he could find that bolted directly in. Some guys get their bucket seats custom made to the contour of their backs, so they don't like getting rid of em that easily.

Yeah it's a GTR every1.....BNR32.

Any1 know how much stock seats are going for??

[cowie165]

$800 a pair afaik. It depends on how long you watch the for sale section
