Yes it is true, they do fit!

If you are tall, this could be the perfect mod for you, they sit approximately 90mm (yes 90mm!) lower than the factory S1 seats. If you are any shorter than say 5'10" then you probably won't see enough bonnet so this is really only a good idea if you need the extra head room. And once you have seats with some support the suspension upgrades move way up the list, rather than sliding from side to side in the seat you can really feel the body roll!

They look good in the car too, IMO anyway, pictures now added.

Cheers

Luke

do you need to change the rails to GTR ones, or do you just use the stagea ones?

The factory rails on either Stagea or GTR are not removable, they are part of the seat base.

You use the complete GTR seat and bolt it straight in, but they sit alot lower as noted above

All R32, R33 and R34 GTR are interchangable. R34 GTT RWD are not as they have a different floor pan.

There maybe a remote chance a RWD Stagea floor pan could be different like the r34 GTT RWD is. This would have to be confirmed. Also most people are not aware the RWD Stagea has different front strut towers than a 4WD Stagea, this is due to the different front suspension setup.

So, does this mean the seats aren't height adjustable the way the Stagea seats are?

If not, then I might stick with the stockies, but the the GTR seats sure do look the biz.

You could add these GTR material matching rear seat and door trims like these I have spare :happy:

Nice! look a little grubby... got any better shots? Is that the auction photo or yours?

Nice work Luke GTR seats are tough, i nearly bought some about a month ago but the guy sold the drivers side on me so there was no point me buying just a passenger.

Would you mind pming me where you got them and a price etc...

Cheers Simon

Ps. I'll prolly be heading down your way on monday or something, when ive made up my mind ill pm you anyway.

Gtr seats definately fit because I have a set of recaros for a gtr in my stagea.

I know the recaros are for a Stagea as when the car came into the uk the standard seats were in the recaro boxes with skyline written on them

thread Resurrection! I can add that gtr seats fit a rwd stagea no worries.

    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
