Hi Guys,

I want a passenger seat the same as my drivers seat, the seat came in a car from Japan and was removed and sold to me on arrival. The thing is near new and it suits the R34 GTT like it was meant to come from factory with it, the colours and all are perfect... Now, i know there is 1000 Recaro SR3 and similar models out there but is there a particular car this seat was released in or a name or something i can use to hunt another one down??

The seat -

The millennium series have it written just below the RECARO logo on the readrest. And also those extra 'grips' I suppose on the shoulder bolsters, the millenium has them down near your thighs as well.

I believe this is a RECARO SR3 'Trail' series seat. I have one exactly the same except the pattern in the middle is slightly different. Unlucky cos I'll have it for sale soon too.

Edit: I'll be back in Newcastle soon.

I know it's a long shot but the inserts/inner pattern is only velcro'd in, personally I like to keep things genuine but if you don't mind just the inner part being re-trimmed you could buy mine and have a matching pair...

Let me know dude cos finding a matching one of them is going to be super hard. I've been looking for a matching one to mine here in Australia forever but it's basically impossible unless it came from Japan in a container for a massive price. They are on YahooJP but even then they're still pretty rare.

And here's a pic of what mine looks like. No rips or tears anywhere. I actually had a quick look on Yahoo JP and there's a set of the inner trims the same as mine on there which you could replace yours with but you probably don't like the look of my trim (I admit it's not the most attractive, my mate actually said it looks like a coach/bus trim haha) and it could be a bit of money by the time they arrive.

Obviously mines the one on the right.

Thanks Jimmy... Yeah your mate is right about the trim colour... Its epic fail :nyaanyaa:

As for the Grip parts, does yours have the plastic grip bits on them? Hard to tell from the pic...

The good thing at the moment is although the Recaro is really obvious in the cabin, at least it is the same colour as the standard seat (Close enough anyway)...

At the moment its not a priority but once i get the car completed in months to come i will want to clean the interior up and get a matching seat.

Jimmy - When you back?

      49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.

      Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf

      Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.

      Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.

      Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
