Gts-t Vs Gtr Seats

[lordsnipe]

Hey guys,

Thinking of getting some R32/R33 GTR seats. Are they much better than R33 series 2 GTS-t seats? Or should I go for aftermarket? Just looking at pictures compared to my GTS-t seats, they don't look much more supportive.

Went for a ride in a few mate's WRX's and the Recaros in them are a dream. Not having sat in a GTR before, I'm not too sure if the GTR seats are like the WRX Recaros.

Can anyone shed any light?

Cheers

my girlf has has 99 wrx and the seats are only comfy for a little while, after about halfa the bottom starts to get tough. i prefer the gtst seats actually any adjustable skyline seats could sit in those all day

I got my pair for 600 in new condtion, they are worth every cent.

There were also a fair bit lighter than the stock gtst ones.

the 33 gtr seats are a dream. Theyre not rock hard, but still offer plenty of support.

Much better than the stock recaro's in type R's, which i think are a touch too hard for my liking

yep wont be changing my gtr seats for nothing

[lordsnipe]

Is there any difference between R32 and R33 GTR seats?

They look the same, they bolt up the same, the only thing apart from age (and therefore condition) is that the R33 seats have stitching across the middle section.

$600 for a set of R33 GTR seats .. I would pay that in a second. Nobody has any, R32 sets are going for 800+ atm.

WRXs don't have recaros...

A GTS-t seat compared to a GTR seat is like sitting on a 10yo wooden park bench.

Their is no comparison....

my R34 GTR seats are the best i wouldnt change em for anything

[aussie_tul]

GT-R Seat is better.

GTR seats by far. OK driven R33 GTST seats sucks no side support too high good position though.... my old GTiR had better support and harder sides.. GTR seats has more side support.. but it needs it being able to rip through corners at such speeds..

pay the $600 and the get the R33 GTR seats..

if i had a spare $2k when these came up, i would not have hesitated!

they literally sold within a few minutes of the thread being made

[lordsnipe]

yeah i saw those leather seats too.

pfft .. R32 GTR seats are 800+ now dude :-) Trying to source a set of good condition ones. Most have holes etc.

[markimak]

haha my mate is gettin R32 GTR seats for his R33 GTST hes only payin $300..

luckially my seats r clean and new looking fetch me some nice $$$ when i need the dosh.

lordsnipe, speak to slidewize imports...i could have got a set of 33 GTR seats from japan with them, landed in melb for about $800ish and they were in good nick

[lordsnipe]

yeah I've made a few bids on the Yahoo Auctions with Zac from slidewize. Have been pipped right at the end of the auction twice.

$300 for 32 GTR seats ... where from? pair or just drivers side?

GTR seats > GTS-t seats....

there is no comparison, look for some R33/R34 ones, as alot of R32 ones are torn on the side bolster.....

I hunted for some, but couldnt find any so ended up with some 2nd Hnd Recaro SR3 seats for my GTS-t. SOOO much better than stock too....

I've just installed a set of R33 GTR seats. Rears are not much different but I got them to match the fronts.

The fronts are absolute awesome! Well worth the cash spent!
