R35 GTR seats in 350z?
Has anyone done or heard of anyone doing this swap?
https://i.ebayimg.com/t/Stock-2009-N...Wm!~~60_57.JPG I think they'd look really nice! |
I have thought about this as well. I love those seats. I think the issue is finding them as well as not paying a million bucks for them.
|
I would do this in a heartbeat. How much do they usually go for?

I would love to have a set!

Man that would be awesome haha.
|
I've been wondering the same thing. I would love a set of the greyish white ones.

Don't do it, the GT-R seats suck. They look good, but they're not at all that supportive for the track and not particularly comfortable for day-to-day use. They also don't sit that low, the bottom cushion shape is kind of weird and sits high.

First of all,is this "wishful thinking"?You have a set available to buy?
Don't think there are many used GTR seats around.New ones would cost a mint.Have you ever driven a GTR?I have.Don't think the seats would work in a Z.Furthermore,the GTR rides VERY firm.The seats are quite hard. OK for a track car,not everyday driving. All in all,your question is like asking,if you can put a BWW M3 engine in a Z.Anythings possible.Somehow I don't think you have the bucks to actually the swap even if the seats were available. |

Honestly, you're better off with some good quality aftermarket seats. |
The 09-11 GT-R seats are just horrible. Not worth it, trust me.

They're actually easy seats to find since most GT-R owners that drive their cars hard hate the stock seats. If the OP is serious, hop on GT-R Life and search the classifieds.

Thats what I would think as most I have seen at shows have some sort of aftermarket seat. I imagine there would be loads floating around. Unless owners are keeping them incase they want to go back to stock for trade-ins

I reckon your money would be better spent by going for a pair of aftermarket seats, i bet those things are really heavy as well.

I found a set on eBay for $1300 which is reasonable. I'm not looking to replace my seats at the moment as I have mint condition 08 leather seats in my 07 HR. I looked for pictures of swaps online and didn't find much. I know a set of aftermarket seats are attainable for the same price but I like the idea that they're OEM Nissan GTR seats. |
