Gtr33 Vs R34 Seats

[MasTeR_P]

Hi,

Ive tried searching but had no luck in finding an answer.

Which seats are more comfortable? R33 or 34 GTR seats?

Which ones are lower? (this is because im 185cm tall.. 6"2, and like to have the head space ) and ive read somewhere in this forum that your knee could be hitting the steering wheel. in one of these seats.

The seat would be going in a 33gtst aswell..ive read that both seats go in perfectly. But the thing is, im unsure about the rails. Would i need to buy the GTR rails? or would i just need the seats and the gtst rails would be fine?

what about the seat belt and the buckle/socket(not too sure whats it called) ?

would the belt be ok with the seats aswell?

Suggestions or advice would be great.

Any info would be much appriciated

Thanks in advance

Peter

GTR seats go straight in a GTST no probs,,,,i like both styles, its down to personal taste in the end.

I have an r33 GTR with factory seats. I am 196cm tall, so as you can tell the GTR seats for an 33 are very low.

34 ones r nicer ... 33 ones look more like suede stuff .. 34 ones are awesome

Great! thanks for the info.

just one more question..

If i replace the stock GTST seats with the GTR seats, would i have any problems with the authority? as in, if they ask me questions like,

are these seats stock or do i have any certificates for these seats being in the car?

i dont know wat questions they'll ask me, IF any.. but should i expect anything? how should i reply?

Thanks

from memory, if theres a performance edition of your car you are allowed to have any of its mods, wheels seats hoods etc..

Was thinking about putting new seats into my GTST but have been told that putting Recaros etc in were illegal. But this way is legal to do isnt it? What are these seats worth a a pair GTR V SPEC Seats GTR M SPEC Seats

[DECIM8]

someone was flogging a set for $1600 id say 1st hand you would be looking $2500ish but for $1600 its a bargin, id buy straight away..

Id say its legal as they are in the model above yours.. if they look stock you'll be fine ..

[MasTeR_P]

These are the 2 types of seats being questioned that i am interested in..

Both seats are good and look great..10x better then the stock gtst seats

R34 gtr..not sure wat spec though..but wen i searched the forum for gtr seats..a few for sale ones came up..

- saw these going for around $1.5k to $2.5k

R33 GTR - i saw these going for about $600 to $1k

Im hoping they are legal and wont have any trouble with police..coz i read tat some things done to the car need a mod plate and some seats need to be ADR approved..

so im hoping, just because im changing the seats from one model to the other doesnt get me or anyone for that matter, into any trouble.

the first 2 you posted up are eastbear seats if im correct... not gtr ones.. gtr ones came in suede with blue stitching, red for the series 3 gtr R33s.

[MasTeR_P]

Ive seen the first seats somewhere in the FS section from a R34, said to be stock R34 seats..

They look good, but im not too fond about the rubber look..

Just the thought of sitting it in with shorts and wanting to move, and ur legs rub the rubber..just doesnt feel too good.

i guess it would be too "sticky/grippy" for me

Eastbear seats are the first ones i uploaded? or the ones DECIM8 uploaded?

wait hold on champ. ur talking about the pics in post 12 right? arent they suede? they're definitely not rubber...

[Adz2332]

Do R32 GTR seats fit straight into a R33 gtst?

[Beer Baron]

the pics in post 12 are east bear copies. they are not the same as the genuine R34 GTR seats and I wouldn't pay too much for them.

these are genuine R34 GTR seats (in my R32 GTR).

looks great mate! how much did you pay for them? if you dont mind me asking

[DECIM8]

how did u mount them in the 32? dont you need custom rails or some crap?

And yeah they are it .. The 34 V spec is the more uncomfortable edition and the M spec is the Leather trimmed fully sick ones.. Either way they are both similar... obviously different in material and a few other ways.

I doubt you will be in trouble for fittin them.. Only 34's and 33's are a straight fit for them from memory.. I could be wrong.. If they are GTR seats and the cop asks just say they are stock seats for the GTR and he'll be like oh .. well then dunno what that is but ok
