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.

    • OK. But what about parts of the block that, when assembled, were twisted into a position that pushed into the void space, which, when disassembled, then released that force and opened back up, thus putting the grout into tension? Would effectively just pull the cast iron off the grout at the interface, leaving a tiny void and benefitting not much at all. Swings, and roundabouts. It's like putting something tiny into the fleshlight and finding out you needed a smaller one, to perhaps follow your area of expertise.
    • Nah. You buy a kit that has shorter tubes.
    • I didnt present too many conclusions because I wanted your opinions and feedback based on your own experiences. I don't know the exact material, but it is similar to concrete and therfor only has valuable strength in compression. The forces on the set material once the head is removed would mostly be in compression since the grout wants to retain its shape and the block wants to return to its relaxed state since it's still within the elastic region. The grout would theoretically make the block more rigid. The exact amount would take a better setup on my end. Thought experiment: Instead of aliens, twist your favorite fleshlite. Now fill it with grout and allow it to sit for a week. Now try to twist it again. Observe what you see. Now get your other one and blow into it. Observe what you see. Now put it into a can and fill the space between your fleshlite and the can. After it sets blow into it. Less movement in torsion and less expansion i hope.
