Most fixed back seats use side mounts, perhaps that is what he means.

With bolting side mounts onto a bottom mount rail you get the problem of jacking the seat up.

yes true if its side mounted seat you cant use this rail.

so assuming tight ass seats @ $700 + $500 for your rails = $1300 ..  

so cheap .. :)

rofl since when is 700 + 500 = 1300 :P

anyway, seats start at $460 a pair....

so basically r31 rails are the same as the r32/r33 seat rails then?

i'm interested ..just working on the budget

Thanks

The bride rails/frame has r31/r32/r33 written on them, but i dont think it will fit the aus delivered r31's someone said.

Sorry for the delay on these place making the jig has been flat out and i have been away for work also.

Getting first set made up this coming week so will have pricing on then and so my seats can finially go in.

This was me :D and is *confirmed* I tried to fit my spare r33 seats into my aussie R31.. don't fit and I tried lots of things.. different completely.

Import (HR31) is different... so if they say R31 they will be for import R31.. NOT local as above.

how much are the rails?

After finding out the distinct lack of seat rails available if you own a R31,R32,R33 and want to put in aftermarket seats in, I am offering a group buy for a set of copies which I will get a metal engineering shop to copy of the bride seat rails I am about to purchase for the recaros to go into my car. Recaro or no other company in Aus has any rails available either.

If you want to put in Recaro,Bride, Cobra, Sparco etc seat in ur line then you will need a set of these rails as the floor plan on the lines are at different elevations near the seat area and the drivers side seat belt holder is apart of the stock seat rails. You will not be able to adapt any other rails unless u custom cut and shut them, and then still the seat wont sit at the right elevation or angle and wont be as safe as these properly made ones I can get done.

If interested reply on here and then I can get a good price from the fabricator

.

Count me in INASNT, I just bought Troys Velo Esprit seat and if it can be fitted with these rails i'll get one drivers side for R32 please.

PM me with a price and available date as soon as you can.

Cheers mate.

Ok finially got the seats put into my car with the original bride rails.

Pics of how the seats sit in the car with the new seat frame/rails

The rails make the driver side seat sit up a bit more than the stock seat would with aftermarket seats which is better than the other rails around that make the seats sit alot lower than normal.

Only one set of rails were made, which wasnet a easy bloody job either.

New rails are made with SASS rollers and fabricated frame which is welded.

Will get pics of the rails soon.

Only 1 set has been made so i could put my seats in my car, but jig is all setup to make others.

Price looking at $250 per rail/frame which will bolt straight to the floor plan or a r33/r32 and import r31 but you might have to slightly modify the bolt locations to suit ur type of seat as recaro,sparco,cobra all have different hole centers on the base of their seats, which is not a hard job.

Please reply again if ur interested so i can take numbers down.

I am waiting for mitchxr6 and someonestolecc to confirm both, with those 2 i have 3 others wanting both also.

Only one has been made so far, and hopefully 2 more next week and then how many more people want.

    • That's a short. Find the short. It will be somewhere between that fuse and the headlight. Start by removing the plugs from the back of the headlight and dimmer switches, and measure resistance to earth. Supply side (power from the fuse) should have none. The other side should have resistance compatible with whatever globe(s) is there (which is relatively easy to say for a normal globe, perhaps not as easy to say for LEDs). Anyway, if you have very low resistance, you defo have a short. Then you just have to run the wiring like you're running the bowel of a dog (on the operating table) that has swallowed something it wasn't supposed to.
    • Hey guys, need help figuring out why my driver side (RH) fuse 15amp keeps blowing. The Driver Sides Headlamp is out, i replaced these a long time ago with LED ones that were working for 1-2 years. Now, the driver side light is out and i traced it back to a broken fuse. I replaced the 15 amp fuse in the engine bay and as soon as i flip the headlight on, it blows the new fuse. Any idea what's going on?
    • I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol
    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility
