^^^ I thought the same but googled and there were some spj's out there.

Are they side mount or bottom mount? Just pick up the proper style and I think the chances are good that they will bolt up. If not then I'm sure you can mod them to work.

they are bottom mount but yea i guess ill just order the rails and wing it. I was told that i should contact this company that makes rails by order but i dont know which would be better..buy premade rails or have custom rails made?

I used bride side mounts for my pole position. It looks like your set is side mount.

hmmm well i dont know what the difference is to be honest but the guy i bought them from says they are bottom mount...(s14kouki) so are you using bride rails on recaros? any fitment issues? seating position?

Don't order those rails. Wedge engineering rails sit way too high.

Use the Bride MO rail. It is designed to work with most bottom mount seats. To verify, just measure the distance between your mounting bolts and compare to this:

Bride MO rails are normally in stock in the U.S., so I really dont know why you're having such a hard time finding a perfect fit seat rail.

Yes, Fitment is perfect and seating is very low :) bride rails are very universal so the MO's would prob be your best choice.
