I know alot of people wanting R34 seats from the GTR, obviously they are not easy to come across. I know Just Jap sold a pair on ebay for $2000. How much are people willing to pay for these?

I actually have a pair in my 33gts-t and dont want to post in the for sale section as i know it is not ebay.

But i would like to know how much people are willing to pay if i were to sell them.

the least amount of money of course >_<

but seriously, i would never pay 2grand for seats. even if they were R34 GTR seats. i would probably pay $1200 which would be the most. just because im a tightarse! you can buy a pair of sparco,bride, whatever seats for the same amount, maybe even cheaper.

Yeah, I agree with the earlier comments. You can get some of the nicest seats for $1000 each, be it Momo, Sparco, Recaro, Bride, etc. Why would you spend over $1000 per seat for stock seats?

Then again, a fool and his money are soon parted...

I've had a set of GTR33 seats apart to discover minimalistic welds and poor structural design around stress locations resulting in cracks in the tubing in the heat affected zone. So ultimately they are a good manufacturer seat, better than most but in back to back testing they have nowhere near the support, quality of manufacture and rigidity of something like a Recaro. The aftermarket seat wins hands down for my comfort and quality choice.

That is my professional engineers judgement.

That being said they are designed to fit a Skyline so such niceties as having the passenger seat roll forward on seat tilt may be what people want so they may wish to pay for that convenience.

Ultimately it is individual choice and folks will pay what they feel comfortable with.

recaro's look so stupid in a street car. see all the people driving with 200ke cars packed with recaros, roll cages and harnesses... idiots

What if you take your car to the odd track day??

Might look stupid in an Excel but look at home in a skyline.

Do you prefer 20 inch chromies and airbrushed bonnets??

for a second hand seat, they are horridly overpriced.

consider the recaro or similar option in the pricing and it blows the 34GTR seat outta the water

Better build quality, brand new, warranty etc etc etc and for less than the cost of 2nd had seats.

But then, as stated, people will pay what they think. Right person right day you'll get around 2.5-3k

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
