Hey guys...

LoLz...one of my m8s has decided to (and actually purchased) a GTR from japan. It looks clean from the outside......but its seats look like the R32 Four Doors! Pretty ugly! He sent me these pics.

I'm guessing something went wrong and the owner fitted in GTST seats, OR it was some sort of whacked factory option????

WTH????

definetly a gtr, probably had aftermarket seats and the owner has kept them, rather than buying gtr seats to put back in he has gone for the cheaper option.

There is no way you would go to the trouble of changing a gts4, guards, spoilers, motor etc then be a tight arse and not change the seats

Yeah i think its a seat downgrade if anything.

I mean the dash looks the same as well! It's even got the 3 battery voltage, oil temp and boost tachos in the middle!!

Probably sold the car with cheaper seats. By the way those aren't normal GTST seats, those are the 4 door seats (normal GTST seats are a sorty of browny colour, but the seat material isn't the similar to the 180/Silvia as is the case here)........i think they're EVEN cheaper than standard GTST seats. So unless the car was initially a four door, then transformed into a coupe, its a GTR.......i think?

the rear guards seem to jut out a lil just like a real GTR. I can see some shiny metal which resembles an intercooler. Also there's R34 pedals on the car if no one noticed :D Also the door trim is velour, wheras the seats are poverty model. The back seat has the contour in the middle of a GTR seat (and no headrests like in a regular GTS/GTSt/GTS4/GTE/GXi).

My conclusion... the previous owner had bucket seats in the car, didn't wanna part with em, so he took em out and put the cheapest seats he could find that bolted directly in. Some guys get their bucket seats custom made to the contour of their backs, so they don't like getting rid of em that easily.

    • Ended up spending a WHOLE day yesterday cleaning and rearranging my shed.  Due to the aforementioned disorder, my shed is as cluttered and confused as my brain. Again, because of said disorder,  at any one time there are 5 projects on the go at once and because they're still on the go I don't put everything away so I can "get straight back to it" which rarely happens.. So anyway,  I bought a couple of cheap 2mx2m all steel "pallet racks" to put in my back shed.  The idea is to then take pretty much everything out of the main shed that isn't car related. Most of the garden and building stuff is now booted out to the back shed and onto to the shelves where they belong! There's still more rearranging and reallocating to do and it's still a bit busy in there but it's a massive improvement on how it was previously. I've discovered floor space I forgot I had...  For those that have fully dismantled a car before will understand just how much space it takes up!  Particularly panels, bumpers, engine/trans, etc.  I've got stuff hanging on every available wall to get it up off the floor!  This is not exciting content for a blog but has certainly made the shed feel like a more work ready space now!
    • Updating results from our ATR43SS-1 turbo in T3 .63, OEM bolt dump pattern. Not a big number but pretty sweet for a stock Rb20det. Car's managed to pull 220rwkws at 20psi, perfect boost control internally gated with EBC and excellent mid top end power band as they usually skydive after 5.5K. Usual bolt on supporting mods and inlet plenum and factory location exhaust manifold. Pump 98 fuel was used (Ron 93).
