uhhh what? are you saying the rail has no holes? and what is a "silvia" seat? Arent they all the same? But just says "180sx" on it or something.

worangejuice 08-07-2008 11:40 PM
there are 4 bolts, I'm guessing you don't have the brackets? pictures will help you

Fonix36 08-08-2008 07:12 AM
ill put picks of it all tonight

jskateborders 08-08-2008 11:06 AM
what kind of Silvia seat? s13, s14, s15? Or is it some seat that just says silvia on it?

Fonix36 08-12-2008 11:56 PM
okay updated

singlecamslam 08-13-2008 12:08 AM
you're missing brackets, go to a junkyard and pick some up.

eek 08-13-2008 03:26 AM
Or use the existing brackets off your old stock seats.

lol messagelength

ZIPTIED seats! DO IT.

EDacIouSX 08-13-2008 11:00 PM
just swap oem railes for oem rails. get some s13 rails and slap those on. all s13/14/15 actually i dont know if the rails will work since it bolts ot the seat...

Fonix36 08-15-2008 12:57 AM
the thing is i dont want it to sit high as fuck is there any other alternatives

SlideWell 08-15-2008 04:46 AM
zip ties? no. dont even think about it. when u think ur good, youre gonna hit something, or something will hit you, believe me. Safety FIRST!!! its not worth severe migraines from a bad accident.

TUnity2 08-15-2008 11:56 AM
no there are no other alternatives. get rid of the seats and go oem or somthing with side mounts and side mount rails.

Fonix36 08-16-2008 02:55 PM
this blows big time

ericcastro 08-16-2008 03:20 PM
So with OEM sliders, the seats are too tall??

Or you just wanna feel all sunk in??

cause being able to see over the hood and out the 1/4 glass is a good thing.

Soooo, do you wanna be a race car driver, or just look like one??

Im sure you can fab something up man.

tanks13 08-17-2008 09:21 PM
hahahahah fagget see why i got rid of it for those racing hart rims even that one rim is fucked i told you well figure something out hahahaha 20 bucks it was 25 and you still owe me 10

im 6'1'' and i already can see everything with stock seats so no the height is a big problem

do the rails even line up with the stock mounting points? if so you could just take the mounting tabs from a stock seat and weld them on to the aftermarket seat rails.

Talk to DALAZ_68, I think he had/has the same seat. Find out what he did to make it work.

downshift_sideways 08-20-2008 05:05 AM
fuck rails.

Weld that bitch to the floor.

I like your "silvia" seats. I heard they only came in the special edition s14.5 silvia's.

I bet you that seat will fuck up within 1 month of hard driving. better get a tire placed in back of that seat..you never know when your gonna need it :keke:.

and ill even add a tire pump in case i run flat

Well, as everyone has already said; U need brackets. Get some Bride or Sparco brackets, and U're golden. Seat swapping is straight forward process. However, if I may, get urself an S15 seat. U'll B happy. Straight bolt-on.
