i vote for 350z seats.

and what do you mean by nismo seats, do you mean the ones on ebay? if so i say steer clear from those they look like cheap quality, besides i see the exact same design with rali art, or mugen plastered on em. 350z seats are the way to go.

Here's a thread by somebody who did it. Not very detailed, but should give you an idea. http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=296996.

if you want spring for some sparco torinos or some bride's... depends on how much you want to spend. i didn't want to spend too much on mine so i got some R-1 seats (look like sparco torino's) and i have no complaints about them. we just went canyon carving (left coast guys) and people were complaining about sliding around in their seats... i on the other hand had no such problems.

i've been seeing a lot of sellers on ebay selling "bride brix 2 or zeta 2" seats for $700 range plus shipping. has anyone ever tried contacting these guys? it can't be real can it? it's too good to be true, plus i hear there's a lot of counterfeit bride seats on the market. one "real" seat sells for $800 with rail easily. does anyone have any insight on this? my S13 and/or max can use some more holding power hehe. here's an example: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33701
