''drift Seat' Rails

[mike91]

I wanna buy drift brand seats but they don't come with rails, I was wondering has anyone used factory 33 rails with these seats and what is required to do it?

Drift said bride seat rails fit with only drilling required on the tabs , i'll let you know mine should be in two weeks or less

Funny enough i found a drift seat ad that says they come with rails no expiry date from last year same time i bought my seats !! But they said no rails

I looked at doing mine but the factory rails are flimsy at best so you have to beef them up then run some flatstock or square tube and use grade 8 bolts to fasten , not a huge job but welding the factory metal even with lots of experience will be a pain and fiddly and most likely not able to be engineered to ADR in the end anyhow ? bride rails go 30-35mm lower on 34's so my head wont hit the roof so often on the lovely roads in adelaide

Got mine fitted and it took a fair bit of modification to mount on the bride rails and its still not right

They sit higher then factory ? But the rails say 25-30mm lower and the drift seats are pretty close to the same size as GTR seats

Im further back now but its not a good seating position because my head is jammed into the roof just like before , grrrr damn car rules , I would love to just bolt them thru the floor directly and not use the factory mounting points

They would be great for a 5'8 skinny ass driver

they do absorb the road shocks better of pot hole central adelaide , and look a butt load better then gtt seats being all black

So bewarned the cheap seats get expensive quick if you mount them with bride rails ( under 200 ea ) but took the mechanic all day to mod

and fix the compliancing monkey stripped bolts on the passenger side

to fit and buy your over a grand at least
