Not sure if this has been covered in this thread but do you have to purchase in pairs?

EDIT* found it in the fine print :) all good

Edited by the_wolf

anyone have pics of actual seats they recieved?

would love to see the quality and hear first hand impressions...

Only 32_Dave has received his 2 pairs.

The photos in the first post of the Cuga and Gias II are the actually seats I bought for samples

I can not fault them.

No ADR approval....even genuine Bride are not ADR approved.

Excuse my ignorance here... But because they aren't ADR approved... Would this would mean you can't even get 'em engineered for road worthy? Whats the go? Surley you guys arn't putting these in track cars? :blink:

^^^ Don't kid yourself - ANY modification you make to a car is technically against ADRs, as it hasn't had crash testing and ADR approval .... even engineers certificates are not worth the toner they are printed with here in SA - cops will defect you anyway, as they have no way of verifying if exactly what is engineered is what they are actually looking at.

^^^ Don't kid yourself

Ahem... I said excuse the ignorance.

So... They can't be certified period? You just wait to get pulled over, then have to put stockies back in to roll it over the pits, then take them back out and repeat?

Seriously, I want to upgrade my seats... And these are awsome. But I aint going through all that.

Again, whats the go? Regardless of how stupid it all is... Can they be made legal?

Edit: sorry, just read your post again and missed you saying even if you got certs they still ping ya... And im in NSW so... worse yea?

They will get past a normal pink slip I'm sure, and I doubt police will give them too much attention but if you have to go for a blue slip/engineer cert. they will never pass them. I wanted to buy these seats for a HR31 myself and these look awesome but I need to get a blue slip and I don't have the stock rails or seats so it leaves me with a shit quality adr copies. If you want a legal upgrade your going to have to find ADR approved copies or genuine DC2R/DC5R integra recaros which is what I'll be doing.

As far as legality goes, same as any other mod you would do.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
