Two bolts (one each side) at the bottom of the rear seat. Undo them, pull the seat (bottom half) up and it will dislodge from two tight plugs (may require a big jolt to pull them out). Pull that out of the way.

Two or three bolts holding the top half of the seat down the bottom where you have removed the other part of the seat. Undo them and pull it up out. Parcel shelf you carefully pull out (dont forget to unplug speakers). I dont think there is any bolts from memory just plugs that pop out.

Its very simple but just make sure you have un-done all bolts before trying to pop the plugs.

the first two bolts,

are they accessed from the boot or "under" the seat in the back

the only reason i ask is i dont have the car here and i want to suss this out so on the w/e when i get it i know exactly what to do

hey mate,these pics shud pritty much explain it all for you. the 2nd picture with the 2 half circles is about where the other 2 bolts are that hold the rear part of the seat in.the bolts are easy to get out but the clips on the bottom half of the seat will probly get you! i find it alot easier to use a very long screw driver as a lever inbetween the seat and the floor.

    • I don't how much the car makes a difference or whether it is just a question of gearbox and clutch. On mine it's fine. Pull type Nismo coppermix twin (standard, not competition) on the 5 speed in my Stagea. OEM slave cylinder. Bite point is a few cm off the very bottom of the pedal. Clutch pedal all the way down to put in gear, and when heading off at the lights, there's a tiny bit of nothing and then it starts biting. And fully engaged before the pedal is all the way released. There's a bit of play at the top where the pedal does nothing anymore. Are you in Australia @ck_chino? If you are set on using a Nismo slave cylinder I have one new-in-box at home. Ordered it together with the clutch but didn't get it fitted. We can work something out if you want it
    • I am using a pull nismo coppermix twin in an r34 getrag box, had both the standard slave and  then the nismo one. Adjusted pedal to get bite point how I wanted , it is on the higher side, but would fully disengage past half way down.  I also read that the nismo slave won't work but I had no issues with the stroke, might become one later as clutch wears but 2+ years of happy motoring so far.  Take the above as one input only, specially as my setup is a bit unique in that I am using an S15 clutch master , cefiro clutch pedal, custom braided clutch line. Lots of variables at play. 
    • Oh for sure, I'm just recounting my thoughts 😎 I'm not what you've got there to fuzt with.... likely my first idea was on the money -- rebuild or replace connectors. You can get a lot of connector stuff here  -> https://www.rapidcables.com.au/ Didn't look in the boot of mine, because I replaced these when I renewed the pump (plastic of connectors had gone brittle) edit: what I used... https://www.efihardware.com/products/2120/Deutsch-DTM-Connector-Kit-6-Pin ...cheaper... https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364900039138
    • In no way was i suggesting it’s your fault mate. The trailer cable has a plug that I removed. I will have a closer look, but I did remove the trailer wiring cable with the tow ball as I don’t need it on my silo. i have replaced the fuel pump already there’s no need to remove the cradle again I can see the wire colours from it in.
