Nissan 370Z Forum  

Lets see your aftermarket seats!

I went down to a local hardware store and got the strongest stuff they had in different lengths...I found the ones I needed but forget the size :P

i would use the strongest bolts available. the stock bolts that bolt your seat to the car are metric, grade 10.9. most bolts sold at autozone or kragen...etc will be grade 8.8 which can break. with that said, i was able to find grade 10.9 bolts at orchard supply hardware for a reasonable price. used them for everything

The Autozone near me actually has a decent selection of 10.9 grade bolts, which is what I'm using right now. However, the heads are every so SLIGHTLY too large and run into the bottom of the seat at its lowest setting (which is what I need it to be at in order to fit with helmet.) So I'm on the hunt for 10.9 grade bolts that are a bit lower profile.

Recaro CS Sporster seats?
Any details on fitment (width & height), lower than stock or higher, comfort versus snug.

Same height as stock... maybe a little higher..

Width is fine just deeper with the side bolsters.

Comfort... Blows stock seats out of the water...

I am 6'2 and my wife is 5'2 and both of us love the seats...

Yup seat sits a tad lower to the ground but your seating height is a tad taller than stock. Seats hug all around. Padding is a bit stiffer than stock but it could just be because there new.

Just ordered the EVO II US with the Buddy Club mount. Can anyone advise me on the wiring for the air bag light and also if anyone has used the Sparco side mounts with the Buddy Club system(like the look of the Sparco rails). It looks like I will have to either notch the Sparco side rail to accommodate the tab on the BC for the seat belt or remove the tab completely and have something fabricated. I haven't ordered the side rails yet, so if it's not possible to incorporate the two please let me know so I can avoid the restocking fee. Thanks
