Gtr Or Aftermarket Seats?

[frozenwaffles]

hey guys, i want to get some new seats for the skyline, mianly the drivers seat. i do some track time and the standard seat is no good!

so whats the best and easiest way to go, R33GTR seats or brides or Recaros or something like that???

also i want this to be compliant to road rules etc... if i go the GTR seats do i need an engineers cert?

i need to get a cert anyway but its just one more thing to add to the complications list....

gtr seats.. easy, cheap(er) bolt on, and look stock to mr law

Definately agree with that

not to mention they hold you in very well... the only real upgrade from these is a full blown bucket.

i run gtr seats and i'm stuck like glue. they hug you all the way unlike most of the lower end buckets

for track use you really need a proper fixed back carbon or fibreglass shell bucket seat. any recliner is always a compromise.

velo are quite good. very cheap, and made in aus.

i've also liked cobra, mid range price and used in V8SC etc.

I've used recaro fixed back too, very nice, but stupid expensive (like $2K for a basic seat).

racetech are awesome. made in NZ, not too bad on price until you get to top of the range.

i use 34 GTR seats for street, and currently cobra fixed back with head restraints for circuit. it's only a 10 min job to swap seats.
