350Z Seats

I'm thinking about upgrading my seats, but I dont want to go the street car look, I want something thats more stable in tight turns, and better bolstered.

Would 350Z seats fit the '03 Max?

Is there anywhere I could find the dimensions of the driver and passenger seats of the '03 Max and the '03/'04 350Z?

I'll worry about where I could actually find 350Z seats after I find out if they will feasibly fit. Although, if anybody knows of anywhere or anyone that I could talk to let me know.

Ask the parts people at your Nissan dealer.

I was actually planning on doing that tomorrow, the only thing is my FNND isn't that friendly since they were looking for a Maxima for me for 6 months and couldn't find one so I ended up finding one off of AutoTrader.com and apparently they are holding some kind of immature grudge against that.

I would think that the 350z seats new from a parts department would be so incredibly overpriced, that it would probably be cheaper to go with those suede Sparco seats.. Milano I think they are called. I wouldn't doubt that they would be more comfortable as well. Unless of course you can find a wrecked 350z.. I'm sure there must be a couple of people who didn't make it through the break in period before sliding off a track or into a tree, etc.

Where did you price those AE sill plates? I paid less than $75 for all 4 from my Nissan dealer.

There's one black leather w/o airbag at www.car-parts.com for $250.

It says "LFT", I'm assuming that means LEFT, but I'm not sure what orientation that's using.

Arlington Nissan in Buffalo Grove, IL. that dealership is not really knowledgable in the maxima, it took him 20 minutes to find info on it. then he tells me there is no part number for them, so he would have to find a 01 AE max with the same interior as mine and get the codes of that car and i would have to wait for that to happen, and after all that he tries to talk me into buying them (saying how nice they look and other stuff like that)...strange people work at dealerships... I heard a lot of complaints about that dealer, but besides regular overcharging i dont have any complaints, they did the windnoise TSB right away, and are about to change my Headunit on wed. for free of course

Well, thanks for the input guys, but if you look for my "Deer Suck" post, you'll see that I no longer need them. I maybe looking into getting a G35c or a SUV.
