will this recaro speed SR3 rail fit a R32 GTR??

**jimBNR32** · 01-24-2012, 09:34 AM

these were removed from my mr2 turbo, im hoping its a straight bolt on bolt off affair?
anyone tell me if this would bolt up to the stock floor on the r32 gtr??

thanks

No, it's not a bolt on bolt off bolt on operation.

So what would I need?
Just remove mountings on the oem seats and swap them into the recaros? Or am I looking at completely new rails/runners attached to the recaros?

If you take a look at the oem seat you will see that the tilt and angle adjustment mechanism is part of the rail frame. I would just detach the Recaros from the MR2 rails and get some used Skyline rails. If you keep the oem seats intact you can sell them for more, if you butcher them you have junk cushions.

so what your saying there is i can remove the rails from oem seats and attach them to the recaros? no other modding?
(can you remove the tilt/angle adjustment on the oem rails, as i obviously wouldnt need them as recaro have there own).

cheers

I think you'll have to find some skyline specific rails/sliders (Ie. Recaro or Bride) that first match up with the car. Then match with your seat.

You didn't look at the oem seats. If you want to remove the tilt/angle adjuster you'll have to use an angle grinder with a cut-off disc to chop it off, then you have to figure out how to mate the Recaro to the butchered oem rails. Can you weld? See Micho's reply.

dont mod it. buy. no offense but i dont think you know what your doing and isnt worth ruining any stock seats.

Even if you know what you are doing it's not worth the trouble unless you have some really dumb friends in metal work and will do the conversion for a case of beer.
