Seats : Nissan Skyline GT-R : R32 : R33 : R34


Tommykaira branded Recaro seats in an R32 GT-R
Seats. Where your ass goes.  R32, R33, and R34 GT-R all can use the same seats. That is the bolt pattern, for the four bolts that hold them in place are the same.  The seat belt clips are different.  They are non-power so pretty basic.

Skyline GT-R seats can also be used in S13, S14, or S15 with modifications to one of the seat bolts.

The OEM seats use a M10 x 1.25 bolt on 3 of the holes, and a nut on the other. It is fairly easy to strip a bolt as they generally are under tension. So if it feels like it is coming out, or going in weird, stop and check what is going on. M10x 1.25 is also an odd size bolt, and tap, or helicoil. So if you deal with these cars a bit, you should have one on hand.

Factory R32 GT-R seat on passenger side of a GTS-t. Notice the color on the seat. This is due to sun fade. The seats should be near black. However finding non-faded seats is very, very rare. 

This is the OEM color of the R32 GT-R seats. Notice the difference to the ones above.

Nissan Skyline GT-R Convertible


Nissan Skyline GT-R Convertible
We own this car. Saw it up for sale, and had to have it. We didn't build it, but it is a funny conversation piece.  One of our friends had it, and we ended up winning the bid on eBay.  It is a 240SX convertible, a S13. KA24DE powered with R32 GT-R look on the front and rear.  The car looks pretty funny parked next to our real R32 GT-R. We had some repair parts for it, as it looks good from far, but far from good, however the parts were destroyed in the fire we had last year. Front bumper, corner lights, and some interior bits. Plus some engine parts to put it back to near stock.

Some people have suggested RB swapping it, but where would be the fun in that? Its better to have this convertible LHD thing with the KA4LYF.
