Hi all, im new to this (as you probrably guessed)

Ive got an r32 gts-t 4 door and ive had for a bit over a year now. im curently doin up the inerior and i was wondering if any of you would know if the r32 gtr rear seats would simply bolt into the back of the 4 door or would it take a bit of modifying?

if anyone knows please let me know,

cheers

i would answer your question with another question. infact a series of questions.

what's wrong with your existing seats?

are they really bothering you that much?

have you got the kind of money that you can feel free to blow it on expensive seats that will probably not even fit up?

how often do you intend to sit in the rear seat of your car?

do you intend to sell your old seats? if so, do you know how hard it will be to find a buyer?

can you really be bothered changing the seats over only to have 4door seats lurking around in your garage for the next year or so?

i personally think leave it, if you must change, have you looked at cefiro seats? they are a bit heavy, but they are so comfortable, like, seriously, i sit in mine for about 5 mins and i'm asleep.

i suffer from narcolepsy, big whoop wanna fight about it? paddy.jpg

ok, i hear what your saying, but the thing is gtr seats are deeper than the standard seats so it will hold the passengers in better.

also i think they look nicer than the stock ones.

and they really arent that expensive, i know someone who will sell them for $150

anyways it doesnt really matter that much, it was just a thought, they would go nicely with the Bride Brix seats i have in the front. i was just wondering if it would be worth it or not. some time down the track i plan to have it all re-trimmed in leather anyway.

cheers

I installed a full set of R32 GTR seats into my A31 with no problems at all, the retaining clips for the bottom half, in the floor pan, are identical and the top half hooks and bolt holes line up. The R32 sedan is identical

The only problem was that the GTR seats were narrower (left to right) however only by about 10mm each side; once the seat belts are retracted you can't even tell.

    • But, do I have to? 😬
    • While doing my tailgate struts I found some rust. Also replaced my bonnet struts. Such a cool satisfaction with that job.
    • So I removed as much as I could from both sides. The shop vac did a great job of clearing 99% of it. I got it all as clean as I could and then absolutely drenched the whole lot in the rust converter. Tonight or tomorrow I'll hammer it again. The cavity must be close to 400mm in length and surprisingly I was able to get it right to the back.  I'll quickly reassemble and then pretend I never saw it. I'll post pics (for me to ignore later) soon.
    • Yea she is a hoot to drive 
    • I have always resisted the urge to go silly. 8" wide wheels and street friendly spring rates? Check. (Let's not talk about the steadily increasing spread of spherical joints across my suspension!!) Stock turbo, run at 12 psi? Check. Lasted for~?10 years before it died. Highflow put on rather than seizing the opportunity to go G45. You don't need 300 rwkW, let alone the more massive numbers that seem to be essential these days, to have a car that is already way too powerful and fast for a streeter. ~250rwkW is fine. I've never exceeded 200, although I will sneak up above it if and when I manage to get my finger out and do what needs to be done to use the highflow's capacity. You don't need $10k worth of CF bits glued onto the outside. You don't need razor sharp ankle cutting front splitters. You don't need the car to be 2" off the ground. You don't need flawless paint, mirror finished wheels, brand new indicator lenses, etc etc. All these things just make the car impractical and will cause you pain when they get damaged, which is inevitable for a street car. A few nice additions are good. Good seats are good. A nice stereo is good. A/C is good! (46° on the road yesterday and my A/C is degassed again. Was moderately traumatic driving home!) The main reason I stick with a mildly modified old Skyline is that I have had it for >25 years, the mods are the rolling result of 25 years of things dying and being upgraded opportunistically, coupled with a few "just 'coz" ones. And I hate almost all modern cars. If I was a young buck starting out now.... I wouldn't bother. Cars have a few years left where there is any possibility of interest or fun. Thereafter there will be no such thing allowed or possible. Any time, money and effort spent now on a project would just be a waste.
