My understanding is R34 GTT is the only r chassis where the seats don't interchange with other models. You need replacement R34 GTT seats, or aftermarket seats with rails to suit R34 GTT only

A mate bought some passenger seats stripped them of the good foam and material. Then fitted it all to drivers seat frame so was mint again. 

Pretty good solution as most passenger seats are in great condition.

The cloth is better on the passenger seat but the foam on the side is just as bad. I have good seat covers that hide it, they just feel worn out. I have started to look at recaro sr7.

 

I think you missed the point. The suggestion was to buy 2x good passenger seats (or maybe just 1x if you only want to rejuve the driver's side) and do the skin swap from the one(s) you bought.

That's a....somewhat expensive solution to your problem. Are you talking genuine or China-copy? The Crank Motorsport R34 GTR copies or Bride reps are decent. I bought CF alcantara (both fake!) Stardia copies from him. I probably should have bought the GTR copies, but I kinda liked the f**k-you aesthetics of the Brides.

Running Recaro SR3s, rails are Juran racing (some Japanese brand). I do not recommend for heavy track use as they don’t provide enough support. Look good though. I will likely be switching for Bride Zeta 4s in the coming year.

I was looking at fake Bride seats but do I do like the fake R34 Gtr seats more.

    • I have an Elite 2500, honestly most of this has been a lot of smaller tasks chasing little details and a whole lot of life getting in the way of bigger projects. I don't mind too much looking at a spectrograph vs having audio knock ears. 
    • Nah nah nah nah. Don't do it. It's not all about the full throttle power delivery. The main "street fun" and drivability gains from smaller rear (in this case) is how you will have boost available from a low rpm when yo just roll onto the throttle. Think jinking in and out of traffic, coming out of roundabouts, etc etc, where you just want to roll onto the throttle a little and have the spooly noise from ~2000rpm and a swell of torque. More of what you've already achieved by going to 2.5. And then, towards the tail end of 2025 you can pull the turbo 4 out and put in a V8 like we originally suggested. :P
    • Cheers for the info mate, I'm old too, 60 years old next May, so a more linear delivery of the 0.86 would be better as baking tyres and snapping heads isn't on the cards for me or the car I assume a more linear power delivery would be better for engine and drivetrain reliability as well, IRT the torque load at lower RPM???, as well as lower EGT's???, if my understanding of that is correct, have I got that right??? I've only got a really basic understanding of turbo sizing and all there characteristics  Cheers for the useful information 
    • What kind of power delivery are you after? If it's nice and linear, the 0.86 would be better. If you're after bake tyres and head snaps on boost the 0.64 would be fun. I'm boring and old, so linear power is preferred. Lately I've been watching videos on Z06 Corvettes and super charged Mustangs....
