Lets see your aftermarket seats!

Does anyone have issues w/ buddy club rails/brackets and Status? If I tighten the side mount bolts, the floor bolts don't line up. If I loosen the side mount bolts

Does anyone have issues w/ buddy club rails/brackets and Status? If I tighten the side mount bolts, the floor bolts don't line up. If I loosen the side mount bolts to line up the floor bolts, the side mounts don't line up. It's causing some binding so the slider isn't exactly smooth. And yes, I do have the correct sides on (driver, passenger). It looks like I need to bend the side mounts a little bit. It also ate a little into the side of my seats

edit: I have Status Ring GT-X

Guys just ordered Buddyclub base/rail combo and waiting to be delivered and mount it in my 370z together with the sparco pro 2000.
Any input on this combo? Will it fit and how low/high will seat compared to stock?
Also, why when i asked Buddyclub about their base/rail they told me they dont have them for 370z? Are they discontinued or something? I bought them from optionsauto.com btw.

Just put these in....got an awesome deal on them. I'm a smaller guy (5'6" 145lbs) and these are freakin' SNUG. I couldn't imagine a "normal" size person trying to squeeze in these lol.

I think its either because I haven't messed with the side height adjustments or its the Planted brackets....I'm leaning more toward the brackets being the reason. Bride FO type rails/brackets should cure the elevation problem. Its not the seats, its the brackets/adjustments

Is Wedge brackets good fit for Sparco seats?

Would it be also universal with any brand of race seats?

Thanks.

Here is my setup.
SparcoPro2000 + BuddyClub base/rails.

Installation is bolt on, absolutely no problems and i can say it sits little lower than stock.

Highly recommend buddyclub base/rail if you dont want install or hight problems.

When i contacted BuddyClub at email they told me that they arent making them for 370z which is very strange because there are websites on net selling them for 370z .
I bought them from Options Auto Salon - Sport Compact Car Performance Parts
