Default Highly recommended for tall/track drivers.

I'm a 6'2" drivers and the lack of headroom bothered me alot when I drove my Z around. Just recently came across and found this lower seat rail for the Z and it lowers the seat height pretty nicely.

I highly recommend these all the other tall drivers and track drivers those lack headroom with the helmet on.

*PLEASE NOTE: This seat rail is for use with racing bucket seats. Additional noises, vibrations and slight movements of the seat while using this rail is normal, and will not detract from the rail's ability to properly hold the seat.*
this bothers me it's a quote from the webpage... I hate asterisks...

I hope it does work. I'm 6' and had a time with my helmet hitting the roof when I went to the track.

I am 6'6" and I have to lay the seat down pretty far to keep my head off of the roof.

I asked More-Japan.com if the sliders would fit on the stock seats. I think that they said no, but here's their actual response and I will let you decide for yourself.

Reply from More-Japan.com
Sorry they will no only aftermarket side mounts seat the will fit.

You should clarify your question. Tell them were not trying to mount the seat on their side.

I have never looked at our OEM rails, but anyone who has, is there a way to modify our existing rails?

I may have to do it this weekend, and see how it looks.
