hey guys.any one made brackets for racing seats? i have a set of nrx seats and want to fit them
SEATS!
i havent done this, but i imagine modifying the original rails 2 fit the new seats would be the easiest
its a mission, I don't have a step by step guide, but I got something in my project D
Did mine a few months ago and it's a PITA!! have a pic in my Garage.
The seats usually end up too high. It's very hard to make brackets that get them low enough while still being able to slide froward and back.
To get the height right you practically need them on the floor.
Good luck!! You'll need it!!
go buy a big hammer! and a little welder!
thanx guys. have any one tried to modify std rails or is the pitch diff? any pics would be appreciated.
Problem is std rails are side mount. Most aftermarket seats are bottom mount.
Therfore STD rails won't work unless you have access to CAD programming and some laser cutting etc.
hmmm...
i know people who know people who have access to that stuff!!!
hmmm...
The only way to mount seats properly in an SX is to get the super low rails from Japan...and they are R2500 a piece!

Ill make you some, laser cut and CNC bent for R2000 a piece 😂 .
are you chinese by any chance???
just get proper racing seats, measure where the seat best fits your leg length in relation to the pedals, and then bolt it to the floor.
Already got a set Gary-saving up for those Sabelt seats now.
the ones I have are still fully adjustable also.
Ya, nismo200sx is basically right...most race seats end up touching the roof if you use standard rails...just make sure on your clearances before you weld up the original rail and relise its a bugger up.... super low seatrails are the answer, but cost a bit... nagisa auto make...for the sx..both sides are different so universals dont work...plus the floor bracing gets in the way....
Let us know when your ship comes in nismo...for them bad ass sabelts...
That ship will have to be big my broo!!!
thats expensive,i'm sure i can make my own cause i have acces to a cnc milling machine and cnc wire eroder.just need to have a look at them. i wana make a plan this weekend when i take out my sound.
my ones... Nagisa Auto double locking super low seat rails...

Damn those ones n1smo200sx pointed out looks damn to make... next time i'll manufacture some of those... never thought of relocating the rail more to the side of the car rather than locating near the gearbox sidewall...
Jap spec are those side mount rails you got there?
they sure look like it hey...
most of the decent seats are mounted on the side though, as far as i've seen.
