Juke Nismo RS Recaro Seats

Not a simple pnp due to differences in the brackets.

Putting the Juke seats into a Z came up in this thread. It appears 2011-nismo-91 has done this, and claims it's not overly difficult? Perhaps this gives you a place to start.

To my knowledge no one has done the reverse swap or at least posted any details. Impossible, it shouldnt be too hard. Seats might be a bit low. But you will need to deal with the passenger weight sensor. Either remove it from the juke seats and install it into the Z seats or get the bypass if there is one.

Juke RS seats are 3" taller than the 370Z seats. As such there is 20 hrs of fabrication work to make the RS Recaros fit into my Nismo 370z. Going in reverse while Im sure is possible, it's anything but a direct swap. Cutting and welding will be necessary for both swaps. Good luck!

In 2016 you said:
“For those interested in these seats. I just installed the brackets on mine. No cutting just unbolt the old bracket/sliders, and bolt on the new. I can only speak to the Wedge Engineering brackets and sliders, which cost $417.34 I told them the exact seats they were for. So best I can tell NO cutting or fabrication is needed when using Wedge brackets/sliders.”

Was this not the case? You ended up having to do 20 hrs of fabrication after all?

With the Wedge brackets it is a bolt in job.*

*It will just barely fit and you will sit much higher in the car.

If you want to sit lower you will need to cut and weld parts of the seat and/or brackets which will take time. I think the non sliding bracket is lower but you would have to call Wedge to confirm.

The passenger weight sensor from the Juke seats don't connect to the Z. So you would need to either swap the weight sensors or install a bypass ~$90 that fools it to thinking there is always someone in the seat and you would need to have the seat buckled because otherwise the fasten seat-belt light would always be on.

When you say it will barely fit and you will sit much higher with the Wedge Brackets. Are you using the Recaro seat subframes? Or the standard subframes that came on the Juke?

The Recaro subframes are extremely low profile, so I’m trying to imagine how tall the wedge adapter would have to be to create that issue.
