Yes CarID.com also sells the planted brackets which come with the sliders.

UPDATE:

I am changing it up and replacing these seats with the new Braum Elite-R seats with Red Piping and Red Braum 5-Point harnesses as part of my winter project list for my Nismo.

As a heads up, I am going to be posting my Braum Elite-X seats w/ red stitching as seen in this thread for sale in 1-2 weeks. Should be additional savings on a like new set of seats for anyone who is on the fence. I drove the car ~3500 miles this summer and these have held up great, with no visible signs of wear and tear.

I was looking at those but just couldn't get past the piping. If it was just red stitching.would of went for these. Mine came last week, waiting for the seat brackets. Good luck with sale!!!!

Thanks for linking me to your post. It's good to hear these seats are well made and a decent price point. (also good call on the seat sensor, i was not about to screw around with that sh!t on the passenger side.)

I'm probably going to order a black leather set soon so I can reduce the effort of getting in and out of the car just to run around town.

Thread Update!

One of my Black Friday purchases finally arrived today. I was disappointed when I placed the order to find out they were on back order but it was worth the wait, these things look awesome. Braum Alpha X seats replacing Braum Elite X seats, I was very happy with the Elite X seats while I used them but when I saw these I had to have them.

Questions: Related to stock Nismo Seats
 
My questions about these seats are as follows:

Size wise: How do they compare to the stock Nismo seats they have replaced? Are they similar width?, wider than stock? or narrower across the seat pan and back?

Height: Are these seats lower than the stock seats once they are fully installed?

I have attached a picture with the Braum Alpha-X dimensions as well as a side by side comparison of the stock Nismo seat versus the Braum Elite-X seat when the original install took place. Not sure what Braum seat model you are interested in but there is typically a dimension photo on CarId.com when viewing a particular model. In summary/comparison, I didn't notice a substantial size difference in the seats. I'm 5'6" 170lbs so it was probably less of a concern than it might be for others who are taller/larger. In general I prefer the feel/comfort of the Braum seats vs. the Stock Nismo seats.

Thanks for all the specs and info.!

Where did you purchase the Braums on Black Friday? :tiphat:

May be in the cards later this year.

I bought my first set, Elite X on CarID, but the Alpha Xs direct from Braum’s site on Black Friday for 25% off.
