    Hi Luke, haven't thought about it a lot, trying to get the car into the paint shop first. Did you want to make an offer? As stated above, I'm just looking for fair market price.

    I’ll have more of a look into Recaros over the weekend. It’s taken me 2 days to figure out which Bride seats suit my application haha.

    Had a look at RHD Japan, I used them a lot back in the day and never had any troubles with them. The EUROSTER II CRUZ Reclinable Seats without the arm rests seem like a good seat for the street and comfort. $4,300 delivered for driver and passenger with rails seems like a good deal. Wonder if I can dodge the geee s teee? haha

    I just got off the phone with Dean from Vosta in Brisbane. They are the ones that do the replica seats and they have a shop full of seats for my to try out. Lovely guy. I haven't decided whether to go genuine or replicas, I'm leaning towards Genuine at this point but who knows. Also thinking the STRADIAs are the way to go VS the GIAS since they have a lower hip edge and would be easier to get into. Don't really like the idea of arm rests on the models to the right of this diagram either, maybe they can be removed?

    6 foot 91kg. Thanks Brett, ill have a look into them! Whoa 197 haha, I'm about 182 but not that far behind you in weight. My back is probably a little wider than most people my size and weight so I would most certainly need the XL seat by the sounds of it. The car is insured to drive 1000km a year (might up that at some stage) but it would likely take me at least 5 years before I would ever get close to 15,000km. If I don't buy the real ones I kind of feel like I'm cheaping out though lol Spent all this money on good quality parts every where else just to cheap out on the seats? probably my OCD. I did find these guys who are more local to me and have copy seats in stock. https://vosta.com.au/collections/reclining-bucket-seats/products/japan-stadia-ii-gradation Or if I want to go genuine https://www.carmodsaustralia.com.au/brand/bride-racing/?srsltid=AfmBOooYKfh5btzB8-ezRTTokM0AqQ3GyWKcfutaMRWBzosRLNSFQhLt

    The more I think about it, the more I should probably go with a genuine Bride seat and rail set up. But damn the $$$ for a driver and passenger seat + rails!

    I wouldn't be using the seats a lot since it's on Historic rego and will not be driven a lot, however I also don't want to fork out 3k for something that won't last. Havent looked at BRZ seats, aiming for something of the same era I did speak to him on the phone once, and I do see your point haha. How many kms do you think you drove before they started wearing out? Just had a look at yours, certainly looking for a reclinable version. The Brides don't look too bad! I would still like to sit in one just to make sure it's what I'm after. Thanks for the replies fellas.

    As the title suggests, Looking for some comfortable replacement seats that will suit/fit an R32 GTR. Purely road use. Happy to travel to the Tweed, Gold Coast and Brisbane area. Possibly Sunshine Coast for the right seats. Show me what you got! Thanks in advance.

    Hi friends, I recently got myself back into an R32 GTR with factory seats. The seats themselves are in excellent condition but the drivers seat is a bit tight for my back and become uncomfortable after about 20min of driving. The passenger seat is a little better so I'm not sure what is going on there, almost as if the drivers seat is newer and has not been worn in. Anyway, I'm looking to replace them with something thats going to be comfortable for road use. I was looking at these replica seats from Crank Motorsport however there has been a number of reviews of the company that aren't great so i'm a little skeptical. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/185466689021?_skw=r32+GTR+front+seats&itmmeta=01JKS72VG115M2Y3KBGCBCWYDD&hash=item2b2ead15fd:g:cMAAAOSwhhZlsIpK&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKl6v17FmqPFPHrHp4kFm2I9VMAXrpZg5R8sUXH6QLUAkliQu34NiG%2F84PJ05lKf2iGboUiWpWbvHYPYKsT154rul3I%2FaGRskpG8VfgyrwC9%2BdRj7uoDAPGJH%2FVprfvd6pgAN2XmUz6buE9YHvOPCKhtJfsQXhEzwgmVTcIwEkkV0A1r%2FkyJYMmQK0OKLI%2FrM%2FQLzeAOkN9B6WLAPrNyFlml%2FkG%2BYzkTXGJ8LN%2B0NCSLfczQGSYeJqPfvMFMgDL2gOD%2BPWb3sX1D1A6PxY5jqyMGey7zin4sDqrUrA7CpqLLpA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABFBMmriLp55l I also live In the Northern Rivers and these seats are in Melbourne so I can't even try them out before purchase. Is there anywhere/anyone around the Gold Coast, Tweed or Brisbane area that would have a decent selection of seats I could test out before purchase. A lot of these places seem to be in Sydney and Brisbane. Maybe there's an individual who has an after market item such as Bride or Recaro I could quickly try? Thanks in advance!

    If you do make them, im sure you would have a number of buyers.. Every GTR I've been in have rattly door windows
  12. GTR_JOEY

  13. GTR_JOEY

  14. GTR_JOEY
    Bit of a long shot but if anyone has 4 of these laying around in new or near new condition. I will happily buy them off you. https://skylinespares.com.au/product/stabilizer-door-glass-inner-new-8032404u03/?srsltid=AfmBOop6L5EgUFaHPHiVXoAhv5k8aJYwc77nGmoApp-hY03OiOsNVaOv Thanks

    You have been hanging around, I thought you would have been gone by now for sure. Though sounds like it's working out for you Thank you sir. No doubt we will cross paths again at some point!
  16. GTR_JOEY

  17. GTR_JOEY
    Tbh, I have no idea who this is bahahaha. hint? I live in the real world now, certainly not swinging spanners anymore though
  18. GTR_JOEY
    Ty sir, Yea the car looks fantastic, I really just want the factory look not sure about fitting GTSts so probably not worth the risk.
  19. GTR_JOEY
    Ooops wrong section.. Mods please move to parts and accessories
  20. GTR_JOEY
    also bump, still got em

    Good afternoon all, Back from the dead and purchased another R32. I'm have started the process of returning the cars body back to factory. It currently has genuine N1 side skirts and rear pods (the grey things behind the back wheel, I think they're called pods, dunno). Anyway putting out an expression of interest. I can not guarantee when these will be taken off as the car is currently in a queue to be painted but my best guess will be into next year. Maybe at the end of this year all going well. I would like to sell them, I have an idea of what the skirts are worth based on what they are new.. of course Im not asking for brand new prices, but I am not giving them away. The rear pods I know are no longer made. If you're interested let me know and we can sort something out at a later date. Cheers Joey

    Hola, Havent been here for a while and forgot about this, happy to sell the RB29 plates for 1K. Slight price drop lol best to text me if interested Cheers fellas
  23. GTR_JOEY
    Good Morning all, Bit of an old thread bump here as plates are still for sale, happy to consider reasonable offers. Regards
  24. GTR_JOEY
    Hi all, Been a while since i posted in SAU since the sale of my GTR over 12 months ago. Ive decided i no longer need the plates as I sold the car to an interstate buyer. Plates are "RB29" as the engine had a 2.9 stroker in it and thought it would compliment it well. They are a Perspex PPQ plates I believe. I own them outright, so no ongoing fees. I realise they are a bit of a niche plate since there isnt alot of 2.9s kicking around QLD, that doesnt mean im going to give them away. Asking price is $4,000 ONO, reasonable offers will be considered. Low ballers will be ignored. PM or message me 0432528844 Located Enoggera, QLD
