What Is Needed To Fit A Velo Gp90 Bucket Seat Into A R33 Gtst?

[Luke_GTS-T]

Hey there, I'm interested in getting myself a Velo GP90 bucket seat.

My question is, what exactly is needed to fit the GP90 into a r33 gtst? I rang up MMSport and they quoted me $1300 for the GP90, alloy side-mounts, custom brackets and sliders; this seems like a hefty price considering the seat itself costs $649.

I asked if the standard rails can be used in combination with the alloy side-mounts however they said that the seat would be way too high, could I just buy some low bride rails and whack on the alloy side-mounts or is it not that easy?

Any help will be much appreciated!

seat is too wide for the bride FG rails....

How did you fit it in your car?

[ssxRicho]

buy a drift base from autobarnz (do these bolt on now? or are they still a little dicky? S13 base also works) and some velo side mounts. $150 for the base and whatever you

want to pay for the side mounts....

You can get steel side mounts instead of alloy.

Think they're around $100 cheaper...

Only thing is they weigh a whole 1kg more which, unless you're involved in highly competitive motorsport, is sweet FA

Think i might just get a bride..

I have a bride superlow bottom mount rail atm.... can I put velo side mount rails onto it and then a GP90?

(car currently has a bride recliner, but i wanna go fixedback asap

Revolution race gear sell a base that will accomodate that seat no probs.

Depends how much headroom you've got left, it can end up a fair distance off the floor.

Hamish, I was thinking of doing exactly what you have mentioned.. my only concern is that it will end up too high..

how much height do the side mounts add?

i'm 6'5" and with the bride seat on superlows i currently have a good inch and a bit above my helmet
