Hey all,
I went and did some work on my s13 recent and now that it runs well I'm doing some creature comfort stuff. I have a set of stock one piece se seats that I'd like to replace with another oem seat and I haven't been able to find a list of seats that will fit easily. I know skyline and z33 fronts are close enough to swap in but that's the extent of what I've found. Additionally, a friend will give me a pair of manual rx8 front seats for dirt so I'd like to know how hard it would be to make them work in the car.
Thanks yall

Best seats that bolt right in are the S14 seats. They can be had for $150 or so. Comfortable, look nice, and an all around upgrade from the s13 seats

Side bolsters are pretty comfortable, and hold you in place for light/medium spirited driving.

S14 seats have less bolster than single cam S13 seats. They're about the same as dual cam S13 seats. Z33 seats are probably the "newest" seat that can be easily swapped in.

If you're going for factory seats I'd opt for R chassis seats or s15 if you can swing it.
If you can't, s14 might be your best option.
Z33 seems to be a large waste of time based on the amount of work for the end result.
