Love my recently purchased '03 350z. Hate the narrow seats. Any recommendations?

Most aftermarket seats look like junk or are for track use. Sparco Torino and Milano look nice but are pricey, brackets and sliders alone per seat are close to $150 plus cost of seat.

Is there any resale value to the stock OEM seats?
They are in excellent condition, car only has 30k miles on it.

Any recommendations on comfortable street seats would be appreciated.

 

Only leather seats have a resale value only if its in good conditions for $300~500

If its cloth, just keep it for a rainy day or it can make nice seats for your game room.

Most aftermarket seats are for better support which oem seats tend to lack so it will be more narrow. But look into Corbeau seats that offer "WIDE" seats.

Sparco Torino's are horrible stiff *** seats and dont recommend. Milano never sat so can't say. If you dont like OEM you wont like BRIDE's either as its even tighter and narrower.

Maybe look into RECARO Sport or Trends. They are supportive yet comfortable.

 

Racing stye seats will fit similar to the OEM seat. Not sure about a wide seat. Maybe out of a Buick.

 

my bride XAX's are for a 36" waist but I wouldn't exactly say its WIDE or that much different then OEM

There isnt allot of space to fit much wider then original...

 

i originally wanted the torinos but wasnt forking over 1500 plus with brackets and driving around with one seat just looks retarded so i ordered corbuea seats which big brown just dropped off. Got them for $568 shipped but the brackets are 3 weeks back order. They look good and are cumfy but i recommend you get the wide version

 

Yeah you wont get much for the stock leather seats, I just sold mine for $465 shipped. I went with some Corbeau FX1 pro seats, they are great quality and cheap.

 

thanks for the suggestions. I am not particularly wide, the stock seats very stiff side bolsters in the hip/butt area which unless one is rather skinny, painfully push up into your butt and hips....so trying to get around that problem.

 

look at different designs there are some with very low side bolsters

 

any idea if all these seats will fit in the Z? Do all Sparco seats fit in the Z? Corbeau is about half the price...and much blockier looking. Too bad Sparco is so crazy expensive, would be nice to have a lumbar adjustment as on the Milano II.

And last, any dealers in the San Francisco Bay Area?

 

you should be good with any aftermarket seat so long as you get the right rails.

Not sure about dealers in cali I know they are out there but not sure who

 

Diet?

< 5' 6" - 214lbs.

Corbeau seats will fit a Z. You can get a lumbar pump installed in the seats for extra $. I have it in my drivers seat. I have the A4 seats and with a 36" waist I fit well.

 

[QUOTE=RandyK1;8229727]Yesss........ that is pretty!!!! Thats what I'd go with.
Tax money tax money tax money!!!!!

 

if you hate the narrow OEM seats then you need to forget aftermarket. they are either close to the same or worse

 

what about Tenzo R seats???? They look wider.... I have no idea about quality though (they are pretty cheap).... But look at it this way... if you get brides or something, only skinny girls will fit!!! hahaha

 

Corbeau are good? i was just told they are crappy on the region forum! i got the red a4 seat and its sitting on that gamer stand until i can find cheaper brackets for it. was told they only look good in jeeps too but that one looks good in your car randyk1, got 2 takata harnesses too when i bought the seat but told to get rid of em on a pm.

 

mmmm... my favorite...

 

dang that seat is clean and looks sooo nice i went on the page to see the price 2k just to much for me i rather spend that to turbo my Z. but maybe if the price drops i would

 

If you can get a Turbo Kit for 2k, I want a link.

 

that just oozes WIN
