Lowest Seat Rails Available...(Bride) - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

BlackZenkiS14 · 03-11-2008, 07:54 PM

I have a brand new Bride Zeta III on my way over from the motherland for me, and i need the lowest seat rails i can possibly get for it.

What are the lowest rails available that will fit my seat and car (s14)?

And what online retailer has the best price on them?

Thanks in advance.

*burnsauto* · 03-11-2008, 07:56 PM

brides rails sit pretty low. not sure if they're the lowest ones you can get. should be around 180-190 depending on where you go.

BlackZenkiS14 · 03-11-2008, 07:58 PM

Yea, i guess i was more wondering what specific rail? Like the FG? Or something else lower?

And im hoping that one of the sponsor's has a hot deal going on for brackets right now...

One thing i think would be nice is whats the lowest seat rail available, and how much lower does the seat sit than the OEM seats?

azndoc · 03-11-2008, 08:13 PM

I think the Nagisa Auto ones sit pretty low. Ask Logan.

SW20Racer · 03-11-2008, 08:16 PM

does your seat have to slide? if not i have some blueprints you might want.

also, do you need side mount or bottom mount? i dont know enough about bride seats to know right off the bat which seat takes which rails

the blueprints are for side mounts, but bottom mounts would be too easy. (2 stips of stainless bent to fit, and bolted in.)

and i should mention the blueprints i have are made to allow you to adjust the incline of the seat (effectively reclining it)

khilgers · 03-11-2008, 08:30 PM

assuming zeta III's are side mount, FRsport has a ton in stock, I got my Bride FG's shipped for $175.

SW20Racer · 03-11-2008, 08:32 PM

here it is. ive tried to put this link as my sig but i apparently dont have the blue key card or whatever so here: http://www.rorty-design.com/files/Ro...%20Pattern.pdf

seat mounts are @ the bottom of the page

*burnsauto* · 03-11-2008, 08:47 PM

i should be putting in a seat with a bride MO rail in my car next week...so i'll PM you and send you some pics

Pstl_pete · 03-11-2008, 09:19 PM

Has anyone tried the new buddy club seat rails? I hear they sit really low as well.

BlackZenkiS14 · 03-11-2008, 10:14 PM

Yes, the Zeta III is a side mount seat. Hoping for pics, personal experience, etc...

I need it to be able to fit someone 6'2" with a helmet.

LongGrain · 03-11-2008, 10:15 PM

i have the buddy club super low down race spec rail, sits plenty low enough for me, and i dont even have the seat at the lowest position.

g6civcx · 03-12-2008, 07:04 AM

Bride FG sidemount is the lowest possible. I can mount my Kirkey to the point where it rubs the floor bar.

THe only other option is to cut out the floorboard and mount the seat flat.

BlackZenkiS14 · 03-12-2008, 07:36 AM

What online retailers have the best prices on these brackets?

94cc0rd · 03-12-2008, 08:56 PM

dood... thenismoshop has them for 165 right now IN STOCK...

tgd89 · 03-12-2008, 10:15 PM

Yeah I'm 5'10 and I have my zeta II on the top position on the bride FG rail, and I fit fine with a helmet. I got mine from frsport for like 170-180ish.

BlackZenkiS14 · 03-12-2008, 11:14 PM

I just ordered my FG rail today from Justin at Nismo for 195 shipped.

bsilvias13 · 03-13-2008, 04:24 AM

i built my own seat brace when i built my cage it took 8 hours from start to finish and the aluminum race seat i have touches the floor. so ide say its pretty low.

alwaysnboost · 12-25-2017, 09:50 AM

Hate to revive an old thread, but equally don't want to start another so here it goes.

I want to purchase a set of reclinable racing seats. Most likely bride low max. Is the general consensus bride rails are the lowest? If so, what model bride do I purchase. Thanks!

dukiespice · 12-25-2017, 11:54 AM

I have a brix in my car and use the the MO rail. I got it from frsport. It sits low, I’m 6’0 and still have a lot of head room. I know the mo works with some other seat brands too, but double check. Hope this helps.

Great thank you!

*TheRealSy90* · 12-26-2017, 08:34 AM

Actually, general consensus is that the Nagisa/NAMS single lock side mount rails are the lowest you can get. However finding them will probably be difficult. I can touch the bottom of my seat to the floor pan, and that's with seat sliders.

Got it. Did some more thinking. I want to do a reclinable seat next. This bucket kills me on a street car. My thoughts are go with mo rails and get a Bride recline. Lowest bride reclinable would be Brix I assume?

SteeleBrothersDrifting_Mike · 12-26-2017, 11:00 AM

street faction rails sit lower than brides from what I've heard.. I had to hammer my floor down for the bucket seat to fit at the lowest setting. Also changes depending on where you seat mount holes are on the seat itself

I would check out the euro 2 ergo 2 and digo I don’t have any experience wth them but they have less bolsters and look like they sit a little bit lower than a brix IMO.
