WOW!
I've been waiting for a group deal on Corbeaus!

Charles, do you know if the corbeau rails raise the seat height like sparco rails do? Or are they lower profile like Bride's? Key element for my purchase :)

Gentlemen,

Sorry for the typo in the original post. In the original post, the Bracket pricing states that it is for the "90-96 300zx". It should read for the Nissan 240sx

One seat bracket--------$70.00
2 seat brackets---------$140.00

Shipping on one seat or one seat and on bracket is $30.00.

Thanks.

does anyone know if these brackets/sliders can bolt up to any seat??

I have Recaro (look-a-like) seats that I haven't been able to mount because other brackets/sliders have up to a 6 week wait for shipping.

Thank you

the corbeau seat rails raise all but a few of the buckets up about an 1" (inch) to an 1 1/2" (inch and a half). I am still checking with them to see if bride rails will fit their seats.:cry:

Unfortunately the information that you received is inaccurate. Here is the correct information directly from Nate at Corbeau:

All the adjustable/reclining seats TRS-1, CR-1, etc(excluding the A4) will have a slightly higher profile aproximately 1/4 inch (.25 inches)

All other seats A4, Forza, Forza II, etc. will maintain stock height profile.

Please let me know if you have any further questions on a specific seat. Thanks.

Gentlemen,

We now have just about enough members paid in full to start the order to Corbeau.

We would like to get 2 more participants to place the order to Corbeau. We currently have 7 members paid in full. I will be placing the order on Monday July 7th. Deadline to remit payment to be included in the first round of the Group buy is Sunday July 6th.

To all who have already paid to participate in the GB, thank you for your patience and we will soon be moving forward with the Order.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

this is just copied and pasted from my email. Except for the quotes at the beginning and end and I took off my last name.
"That bracket & seat combination will definitely raise you 1 to 1.5
inches
over stock. There is a known height problem with the 240 SX. I would
not
recommend using the TRS seats in that car. We have had to many height
issues using that type of reclining seat. I'm sorry to bring you bad
news.

Please give me a call if you have any further questions. 801-255-3737

Hello,

It seems we had recieved some conflicting info. By no means was I suggesting that you were wrong, just that is seemed that you may have received some inacurrate info based on what Corbeau gave me in regards to hieght specs. The truth being is that we both did not receive all the information that we should have in regards to our particular car, the 240sx.

After speaking to both sales reps at Corbeau (Nate and Kevin) We were both given accurate info but I have just found out that it is possible to have the bottoms of the TRS seat shaved ($20 option per seat)and that will equate to a .25-.50 raised profile (no more than .50 or 1/2 inch raise from stock in a 240sx.) Obviously those who are looking for a lower than stock profile, this won't help them, but it may give more insight to those who don't mind a bit of a lift as there is a huge difference between .25-.50 inches and 1.0-1.5 inches.

Thank you for drawing my attention to this and hopefully this will clear up any confusion. :)

Hi, I called you about a week ago... I'm the guy from Hawaii who wanted to buy the A4's. You never got back to me on the shipping...so i purchased the seats elsewhere. However, I am still in need of brackets for my 95 240 and was wondering how much shipping will be for just the brackets to Hawaii - zipcode 96782. I would also like to know the total including the shipping of the brackets to hawaii. Thanks.

So a CR-1 or TRS-1 can not be bought as a single unit? You'd have to buy the pair?

Hello,

Yes, that is correct for the Group buy, only pairs will be sold in the reclineable seats. Corbeau does have a waiting list for those who want just one drivers seat but of course it wouldn't be at the Group Buy price and there is no guarentee how long the wait is.
