GTR seats into a S14

Was wondering if this has been done before. I have R35 GT-R seats that I'm looking to put into my 95' 240sx S14.
I know I would need a S14 Seat frame bracket and to remove the OEM ones off the GT-R seats and add an aftermarket rail that can drill into that bracket. Would still need tips if anything else is needed.

Very few seats actually work in the S14..I started out with Subaru Recaros and was appalled at how high I sat with the seat mounted at its lowest. I gave up with those after I had cut half the bum cushion out to lower the position but to no avail. Cannot see the R35 seats working as they are ginormously high to start with..

Yeah, R35 is likely a no-go. Z33 or Z34 seats fit fairly well if they're properly grafted to S-chassis seat rails. R35 seats are much bulkier.

Tip if you're hell bent on doing this: sell your S14 seats whole, don't cut them up, they're still an upgrade for S13s. Trade them for some janky torn up S13 seats plus cash and use those as seat rail donors.

funny you posted this, I'm looking to getting my friends Red R35 seats from his 17' GTR. They look super Bulky though and haven't really tried to fit them in yet.
