gtrGhosTDoGG11 Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 I'll be in for 2 + shipping to Adelaide, just as long the price of installing them isnt going to be a fortune.

GKTECH Posted May 15, 2005 Author Share Posted May 15, 2005 Hi mate, ive been quoted $80 per rail over here in Melbourne. Its not too expensive. With bigger cars (eg. skylines, commodores etc. etc) you have a bit of room to play with the rails so it is quite easy. Shipping to Adelaide can hopefully be left under $100 or there abouts. let me know if you're interested and i'll organise it for you. P.S Here's a picture of these seats installed in my Exa. (obviously they were retrimmed) Cheers Greg Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/71754-group-buy-recaro-style-seats-only-550-a-pair-or-300-singles-vic/page/2/#findComment-1352396 Share on other sites More sharing options...

U need to get second hand recaro or bride rails for an R33 and then modify the bolt holes on those rails to match these seats.

GKTECH Posted May 16, 2005 Author Share Posted May 16, 2005 i've got a pair of red ones in my 33 if anyone want pics let me no! Id really appreciate if you could add pics. My installation was $80 per seat in my little Nissan Exa so I wouldnt imagine cost would be too much more than that (this was done at a seat retrimmers and wasnt hard at all by the look of it) Greg Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/71754-group-buy-recaro-style-seats-only-550-a-pair-or-300-singles-vic/page/2/#findComment-1355042 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My next car I will do it myself. It really isnt that hard.

Back on topic i don't think it's does these seats "should" well mine is are made from microfibre so no "fluff balls" their great seats, but should use seats covers as the side of the seats tend to wear out from alll the goin in and out of the seats..

MYSTR33 Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 it';s quite comfortable to say the least, sits a bit higher than factory seats(pending on rails i presume), but supports alot better in corners etc.. no problems with it getting engineered and looks hot everyone asks me about my seats, i got'em for a BARGAIN.. so yeah was thinkin about embroidding RECARO on them. lol but nah dun wanna be a poser lol PS still need some1 wo can upload pics with their phone to show u guys the finished result Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/71754-group-buy-recaro-style-seats-only-550-a-pair-or-300-singles-vic/page/2/#findComment-1356814 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtrGhosTDoGG11 Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 I rang up willshires today, they said $250 to install per seat. They modify the seats rails to fit the stock ones. Trying to find out other cheaper places. If you can do it for $80, can you get them done so that they fit in the R33?

INASNT Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 The stock seats rails bolt to the floor at different evevation points and the stock seats go in at an angle into the stock seat rails. The generic seat rails are for a flat floor plan (which the r33 isent). Easiest way to get these seats to fit ur R33 is to get secondhand recaro or sparco rails suited for the r33 and then modify them, otherwise you will never get the seats to sit at the right level or straight. These are the seats in my car Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/71754-group-buy-recaro-style-seats-only-550-a-pair-or-300-singles-vic/page/2/#findComment-1358399 Share on other sites More sharing options...
