I was thinking about getting these since I am tired of sliding around in my s14 seats.

I am 6'3" and 200lbs...I was wondering how if I will fit well? And how tight are these puppies?

Are these lower than s13/s14 seats?

I like them. I'm 5'8"ish and weigh ~180-190. Keep in mind that your ass will be higher in the cabin unless you modify or fabricate the seat rails. S13 seats sit lowest. S14 and R32 seats sit you higher.Also keep in mind that you'll have to fabricate or otherwise jury-rig the outboard rear seat mount, as it doesn't go back far enough for S13/S14/S15.

dunno why people complain about the height of the seats; i'm 6'2 and have absolutely no trouble with my S14 seats in my base 92 coupe... plenty of headroom... i dunno

Hell yes that works. I've done that in all 3 of my 240's. WORKS GREAT!!!! I took out all of the springs and just let the cusion support me. Seats hold you so much better when you do that. :werd:

R32 seats are one of the best seats stock by far. If you have sat in it, go steal a r32 gtr.

like those? They look like they just bolt right onto S13 chassis, is htis true?

they look just barley deeper than S14 seats. Do they really make thatm uch of a difference? I put some S14 seats in my S13 but im looking for something a little more deeper now.

those aren't R32 GTR seats, which everyone is referring too.

i used to own gts-t seats and they were really nice but they did sit a little bit high. most seats you try to put in our cars will be that way because of the hump unfortuanetly. I put new celica seats in my car and those still sat a little higher but only by like an inch. it really depends on how creative you get or how much you wanna spend on the rails...

like those?

Nope. We're talking about BNR32 (R32 GT-R) seats.

Like these:

You can buy BNR32/33 seats all day long on YahooJP. There's easily two pair on every page, usually not more than 25000yen.

Try getting them from JP to the US...ouchie.

Better off just waiting for a used set in the US to buy.
