g35 seat info S13 hatch

[tapdeznutz]

anyone have any input for this. i would like as much info as possible before i start hacking up rails etc. and yes i did search and search, some info but not much. all i can say now is yes they are much heavier but then again some/most people run subs/amp/boxes that weight down the car as well so seats being a bit heavy i think is irrelevent. anyway i just picked up a front drivers and will do the best i can with write up/mods being done etc if anyone cares. thanks for looking and you input in advance.

i have 350z seats in my 13 coupe , fit fine about an inch higher , i dont see g35 being any different , there is a write up on the z seats, otherwise good luck

agreed, i dont see fitment being really a big issue i was really referring to the power seat hook ups. i have read that i stay away from the yellow harness which is for side airbag there is another connector and want to utilize the power functionality of these. thanks for the input.

yeah idk mine arent power seats , sorry

ok so i took a bunch of pictures of the wire harness from the bottom and removed all the electrical tape etc...i believe i have narrowed down the power and ground wires that should power motors etc. i know im right or not destroy something but only way to find out is to do it. a bit tough to tell from the picture but its a picture of the harness connect, looks like solid red on the right and solid black on the left are the 2 wires i will be energizing this weekend to verify operations. did not come with headrest and i am finding out now that the release latch to fold the seat forward is not working properly. but i am sure that is fixable too...everything takes time. http://i1174.photobucket.com/albums/r608/tapdeznutz/100_3631.jpghttp://i1174.photobucket.com/albums/r608/tapdeznutz/100_3627.jpghttp://i1174.photobucket.com/albums/r608/tapdeznutz/100_3636.jpg

Alright just spent a bit more time on this thing as far as figuring out the mounting/rails. Here is what i figured out:
Outside Rail(LHS): Front=cut the side supports on the rails so you can bent/angle the bracket/hole. Rear=Drill out both studs and relocate the bracket 2 holes positions back, which is approximately 1.25-1.5" since G35 rails are much longer then s13 stock seat rails as you can see in the pictures.
Inside Rails(RHS): Front=Do the exact same thing you did on the other G35 rail, cut the side supports so you can angle/bend the bracket/hole. Rear=Drill out both G35 and S13 mount brackets. We will need to use the s13 bracket on the g35 rear position since the bracket/mount is on the side on floor. And again we need to position it back 1.25-1.5" to achieve the correct approximate position. i just wanted to get this down on "paper" and out of my head so i can get some sleep lol.

If these don't have the memory positions in them and don't slide back when you turn off the car I find this very useless. Added weight and you get to move your seat slower. To each their own I guess

memory=i would say no since i do not have the proper wiring etc. i have not gotten to wiring it up yet but i am pretty sure hard wiring it would work find. Again we all add tons of weight to our cars all the time so another 15-20lbs aint shit. Sat in the seat much more comfortable then the R32 seat i have now. I am mainly doing this for myself and if it helps others so be it. If not then that does not bother me either.

On a side note why the fuk are you so critical, have a fuckin open mind. I mean isn't the point of us/everyone here customizing their cars to be unique or to fit their own comfort, come on...

Don't take such offense to what people say. Everyone has an opinion I'm just stating mine, if this is what you want kudos go for it
