I was just curious if anyone has installed r32 seats in their 180/sil?

I have installed the passanger seat and found that the back of the rails line up well but the front is slightly off, I had to make up an extention bracket for the side closest to the door and cut 5mm off the front of the bracket near the centre console.

The drivers side is a differant kettle of fish, the rails seem shorter by roughly 30 mm. I have to modify the rear of the rails to fix the seat in.

If any one has done this a differant way, or could suggest an easier way, that would be greatly appreciated :D
I will post pics up as soon as I put sone batterys in my camera.

i've got R32 gtr seats, and all the brackets line up except the outside rear mount, but i just put a huge washer on the original bolt to hold down that mount....i know that's illegal, but does the job for the time being

not too bad, the passanger seat was easier than the drivers side. The mount closest to the door was off, so made up a bracket to fit and the mount furthest from the door, the hole was modifyed to suit.

the driver side bracket were only too short, would have fit otherwise, so the front was bolted in with no modification but the back I am yet to make steel bracket for. this should fix my seat problem but I must say that the Skyline seats are 100% better than the std 180 seats...

Thanks a million for them Sambo !!!
