Was wondering . . . anyone ever tried fitting these into a Datsun 240Z? Seems like a great price for some seats, but I don't know how well these would actually fit. Do you have brackets for a 240Z?

i'll be down for one black cg and one black sp2

Any idea on fitment for the 240z? Space is pretty limited in these cars, So Im pretty concerned about buying something that may be too wide. Do you have any customers who drive a datsun?

Thanks

I have been doing some research and it seems that most seats with a widest width being less then 23" will fit in our cars. Now, this is only for 71-73 from my understanding. I don't know about later models tho . . . so you'd prob want to check that out.

I haven't researched fitment for 240z's and I don't know anyone who owns one. This guys seems to know what he's talking about.

SR240Z84 · 04-30-2010, 07:06 PM

Who sells your 240Z brackets carparthookup? How much do they run for the pair if I'm buying the seats as well. (PS. how much do these seats weigh? GS recliners . . )

icapture · 04-30-2010, 07:14 PM

Any chance of getting a pic of the GS, or any other seat in the gradation fabric? I would imagine you dont use bride material, so id like to see what they look like.

thanks

slideamerica · 05-02-2010, 07:20 PM

Can't help but notice you haven't replied about the seats...

SR240Z84 · 05-02-2010, 08:36 PM

did anyone read the front page? You have to wait until May 15th, they are closing out the GB at that point. At that time they will then put the order in and the manufacturing will be about 6-8 weeks. Sorry, just want to make sure everyone is paying attention.

The brackets are made by Wedge Engineering. It will be $200 for the pair of brackets custom made to fit our seats. The GS weighs about 40lbs with sliders attached.

Round 4 seats are ready to be pick up?

zero.offset · 05-13-2010, 12:44 PM

pair of frp vs3 shipped to 83709?

S13 Charlie · 05-14-2010, 04:35 PM

Ok,

So I took the plunge on a single G3 seat, no frills, just plain black FRP. I paid $98 and some change, so I'm assuming I just can just pay the balance when I pick it up whenever it comes in? Can you confirm that I am good to go on this group buy?

Thanks,

Charlie N.

Hey Karl,

Got the pics man. Thanks. I do have some questions. The pictures you sent me have "Bride" posted on the headrest area of the seat, as well as in the gradation fabric. I am confused, are these of your seats or are these pictures of Brides? Can you get gradation fabric on the seats that doesnt say Bride?

Also, I havent seen any mention on this thread about saftey tests that have been conducted on these seats. Can you please talk about what testing you have done with the seats? My concern is the seats failing in a crash. A seat belt only works as well as the seat its strapping you into is. If the seat falls apart in a crash then that seatbelt aint gonna do much good. Also, would you say that the one piece seats would be safer than the reclinable ones? You know, less moving parts to break.

Thanks,

Adam
