Bride Euro II vs GTR Seats

**louis110** · 12-23-2011, 03:13 AM

I'm looking at getting a set of mail order Brides from Japan sometime in the near future. I've been pretty set on the Stradia Sport, but after taking a closer look at the Euro IIs, they seem like a much more affordable option. Does anyone have any seat time in the Euros?

They look almost identical to the R33 GTR seats and I can only assume they feel almost identical too. I like the suede material on my oem gtr seats (which the Euro uses), and also the level of "hugging" it provides but a bit more bolstering would be nice. Can anyone provide some real world insight? According to Newera, "To the untrained eye it looks similar to a GTR seat. But no GTR seat is this comfortable or feels this good. This seat is designed to look fairly standard while still providing good comfort levels you would expect from Bride."

Those definitely do look extremely identical. Any specs on the seat size? Berhaps the bride seats are more bucket seated than OEM R33 seats?

Would also like to know the answer to this!

The Bride bottom looks a bit deeper. Similar too R34 ones ^

IMO buy which ever you can get cheaper.... they look so similar and probably provide the same support.

I have r33 gtr seats in my gts25t, i love them. ive sat in wrx sti seats, mustang recaros, ford gt seats, bunch of amg seats and much much more and i still prefer my gtr seats.

i think someone here is selling r33 gtr seats for $700
(c-unit is $700 for the pair)

Those are the physical dimensions of the seat from the bride site. I'm not looking for a r33 seat, I'm looking for a set of well priced, high quality, racing seats to replace the oem seats in my r32 gtr (have been considering the more expensive Stradia sports II). I don't like the grey/blue colour and want something in black, that's reclinable and has adequate bolstering for a daily driver. I'm using the gtr seat as reference because I know how it feels, but I would like to know how the euro compares.

Lol that isn't my car, just a generic pic I found online.

those are nice, where is a good place to buy them?

I'm sure jdm shops would have them (BRIDE or Gtr)

Bride looks deeper and looks like ass bolsters are a bit bigger. Might just be my aging eyes, though. I'd rock the bride if it was cheap enough, looks really comfy + nice low seating position.

According to one of the guys on gtrocuk, "I sat in them for about a 3 hour journey. They are like OEM seats, very comfy, sporty, just not as racy as Stradia's."
