I was wondering how well '89 skyline gts seats would fit in my '92 240.
Thanks

I've been told they should fit fairly well, but this is second or third hand info from someone I know in NZ.  Supposedly they don't raise the seating position, and they should use all except one of the original bolt holes.

Where can you find skyline seats or any other items like these?

Yeah I found some on Ebay, thats why I was wondering. I ended up winning them for $150 for the pair. They are coverd in the tweed stuff so it will match the rest of my interior. Im pretty excited.  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

um...skyline seats arent tweed man (at least ones i've seen-and i've seen real skyline seats). s13 base model seats are tweed. any pics you can post? you might have been scammed.

I have an s13 se and the seats are tweed. Maybe I dont know what tweed is but im pretty sure the seats are tweed. Even if they arent real skyline seats $150 isn't rape for a pair of seats. Here is the link to the ebay site. Tell me what you think http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymot....2250856

Dousan_PG · 11-18-2002, 07:05 PM

mm yeah they look ok. i see they are GTS seats, i was thinking GTR, because GTR are totally different. enjoy your seats and congrats!

Hey RacerBoi,

Three of the four bolts will fit in perfectly. The rear outside bolt for both seats won't line up properly. That is, on the driver's side the bolt behind and to the left of the driver won't line up; on the passenger side, the bolt to the right and behind the passenger won't line up.

You can either have custom rails made or cut and weld the bracket to the rail. I vote for the latter.

Actually, I had to edit my post. I saw that you DID get a screaming deal on some GT-S seats. I put GT-R seats in my S14 and I've been happy ever since, made a huge difference in the ride comfort.

One last thing of note, you''ll nee to take the seatbelt harness off your 240 seat and put it on the Skyline seat. The Skyline has a different size harness and won't fit in so you won't be able to "buckle up".

Hope this helps,
ty
