Bride \ Recaro "replica" Seats Carbon , Kevlar Etc


Recommended Posts

Well i dare say mine should stand out, as i dont think anyone ordered anything like mine.

I could possibly pick mine up this arvo if all is good. Just depends on whether i can steal my brothers van or not lol.

Yeah, I picked mine up on tuesday arvo and they are pretty damn good.

The only problem I found with mine is my hips dont quite fit in the seats, they squeeze that tight that it is uncomfortable :/

I will admit I am 6'4" and 100kg, and they are designed for little asian butts lol

So I may have a set for sale soon :(

Ill put some pics up when i get a chance.

Also the universal rails are not a straight bolt on, you need to fabricate brackets to suit your individual needs. Or buy genuine bride rails.

Yea my cuga's felt a little tight too although i'm only 6'1'" but have a wider back/broad shoulders from the gym etc.

On my r34 gt-t from the stock seat rails the mounting brackets were fixed to the rails with some weird type of screw - looked kind of like a wing nut but without a head to take it off - it was just flat. Wasn't too sure how to get them off without damaging them and the position its in makes it quite awkward so i wasn't able to get the old brackets off and onto the new seats.

Just decided to go for bride rails just waiting for them to arrive.

Have asked the supplier for some tips

"regarding the mounting, in fact, they only need to remove the original seat, and mount the double slider of racing seats onto the original seat rail and fix the racing seats"

Hope that help's everyone

Option1garage here in Brisbane sell custom ADR approved seat rails that will fit Bride and Recaro super low seats, cheaper than genuine bride rails too. Can't wait to get my a$$ in my seats Longz :P

how comfortable are they on long distance drives?

Comfortable, however even for me (being moderately skinny), it's almost a tight squeeze in the thigh area.

Otherwise I still prefer them over stockies

    • This piece is obscenely discontinued. I honestly hate the frameless window design because the rubber gets stressed and the guides as well every time you open and close the door.
    • I wouldn't be concerned at all, other than to suggest having them flow tested when you receive them to confirm they are reasonably similar, and then put the highest to lowest flowing ones in cylinder 6,1,5,2,4,3
    • I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...
