ON HOLD PENDING PAYMENT.

I'm selling a complete genuine leather trimmed (not vinyl!) interior from my Nissan 180SX as I'm wanting to turn the car into a track car only. Therefore these seats are not suitable for my application otherwise they wouldn't be for sale. These seats are located in Brisbane.

These pics were taken when I had all of the seats in the car, just over a week ago, I have cleaned them since, and the mark on the rear drivers side seat does not exist anymore.

The front seats are Recaro SR3 items from a JDM Honda Integra Type R and are on genuine Recaro rail mounts, mounted on S13/180SX factory rails. These seats do not allow you to move about, but are also very comfortable at the same time, even for bigger guys. The front seats are not some shitty retrim of the stock front seats that can be found for sale either.

The rear seats are the standard 180SX items re-trimmed and include the full factory carpet attachment that covers the boot.

I also have the gearlever leather surround and door trims. (the door inserts are not detachable from the door trim for those with S13/180sx)

I don't want to stuff around with cheapass lowballers so the price is set low and is NOT negotiable. If these don't sell for this price, I'll be putting them into my S15. Sponsors sell these exact seats with tears and scuff marks, with these rails for $1650 pickup.

I'm selling the whole leather setup including the front rails mounted, for $1500 pickup.

Or you can buy the whole setup, but swap me your door trims (in perfect condition only) and non-type-x 180sx driver's seat for $1400 clean.

Or you can buy the whole setup, but swap me your door trims (in perfect condition only) and 180SX Type-X driver's seat with rail for $1300 clean.

Or you can buy just the front seats for $1300 if you want to install them alone, or for any other type of car.

I have the driver's seat still installed in the car, so that if you're wanting to test the height that's fine. To save you the hassle, here are some measurements;

The distance from where you sit (the pivot point between the seat of the chair, and the backrest), to the roof on a 180SX with sunroof is 94cm's (so that's 90.3cm's for non sunroof s13's).

The distance for the S13 rails from the floor to the pivot point is around 14cm's.

The distance from just the recaro side rail mount, to the S13 rail is 5cm's (this measurement is ideal for people who don't want to put this into an S13/14/15. I think R32/R33/R34 rails are only 1 bolt out but you can elongate that hole - But you should check that out yourself first.

Please measure these distances on your own car before wasting both of our time first.

PM me if you're interested as I may not check the thread - Don't reply to this thread if you are not wanting to buy them.

These seats will not be placed on hold, whoever pays me in complete first will own them.

NO TIMEWASTERS

Let me know if you want to sell your whole car. Love the look of it.

Am carless at the moment due to selling my skyline, and the car i had lined up fell through.

    • Oh, that's grim. Something bad has been happening there.
    • Put an endoscope down the hole and saw this. Not quite all around the bore but a good 60% at least. Chin to the chest and towards further disappointments I guess.
    • 2 does "sort of" applies, maybe......but looking at what parts would be needed for the swap to get engineered, registered, and insured, and basically that's everything under the car, the modifications the make it legal would be problematic and horrendously expensive, all for a street car that just cruises around and hits a few twisty roads on the weekends Also, from looking at the NSW rules and Regs, with all modifications that is required just to make the car safe and not twist itself to pieces, and then actually get registered for street use, may still be impossible nowadays As for 1, when you add in a fresh engine, fresh transmission, rear cradle and diff, tailshaft, suspension, brakes, cooling, and all the other fabrication required, your probably looking at up to $100k to do it right, all for a 20 year old MX5 that is over engineered and you would never be able to actually use the power it has on the street, much like your beastie, which I love, but you actually track that thing and can use all of its powers in anger, in a safe environment  Hell, the old Bogan Cruise Ship had more power than I could use on the street, and in hindsight, I went a bit silly on that thing, it didn't really need the 500hp it had for what I actually used the car for, it was fun, but basically unusable on the street if you value your licence  As for cams, yeah, I'll probably book it in for them to get installed and tuned soonish, like next month after MX5 Mania are back at work....... and yes, I've already sent a email to bin the turbo quote and quote instead to install cams and a new Fluidampr balancer that will suit the 2.5 better than the OEM 2.0 balancer that is swapped over for the 2.5 install, as the balancer needs to get pulled to time the cams it's a while your in there sort of thing I did think a bit about flex fuel for a laugh, but being na, and no where really around locally anymore to get E85, I've binned that idea, so no sweet sweet corn smells are set for the car I wish E85 was more of a standard fuel, it's better for the environment, better for tuning, plus that sweet sweet smell we all love As for fitting in the family, that's not needed, as everyone in the family already owns a car that can seat 5 humans comfortably enough, the MX5 is "my toy" As for buying a car that is already built, nah, I would rather pick and choose my parts, I enjoy the process, and in the big picture, the additional cost is well worth the enjoyment, and the occasional frustration, I get out of doing it, albeit with other people spinning the spanners, and me, just paying the invoice 🤣
    • Excuse me, but 2) does apply 1) Would also apply if you consider how much is spent in the alternatives. Also there's the option of 3), buy one pre-built that you can put your family in (it's me, it's my car)   That said, I went on a ~500km drive the other day. I didn't use anything more adventurous than 3rd/4th gear at about ~3000RPM and 50% throttle and I was going as fast as anyone has any sense doing on a public road, with enough grip to the point where I didn't want to go any faster. I was obviously under the limit of the current car etc etc. MX5 with 2.5 N/A to achieve the same speed would be more fun for any road scenario. Maybe consider cams. I wouldn't boost it. The use case is just not there and it won't actually make the car more enjoyable unless you really do plan on wringing gears from 1st to 3rd (at least) at 100% WOT on a public road to 150+kmh.
    • Great if: 1. You had all of the money for everything else that is required  2. Lived in a country where you could actually do this and drive it legally on the road Sadly, neither applies to me As for the turbo, I am having second thoughts, mainly for engineering/registration legality reasons and insurance  Not saying I've finished doing stupid things that I probably should do to the MX5, but boost, and V8 engine swaps isn't on the cards Strange, but true
