Gav240z Posted April 21, 2004 Author Share #37 Posted April 21, 2004 Great I'd already seen the pic of your seats and commented . I said back then i liked them and now I still do . That might be the best option to find a style i like and if the color etc is wrong re do them. I believe simon www.240z.id.au think web is correct did the same and usually i don't like that kinda look but in his car looks great. :cheeky: If people wanna share photos of their seats that would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav240z Posted April 21, 2004 Author Share #38 Posted April 21, 2004 These Saas seats would be great either in gray or black for my Zhttp://www.240z.id.au/images/car/other/seat.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-point Posted April 21, 2004 Share #39 Posted April 21, 2004 They look very nice I must admit. On the other hand this seat looks more to a sofa then a seat.But it could be the colour. Working this way gives you a lot of extra work. You have to buy second hand SAAS seats, (I don’t know what they cost) take theme to the upholstery guy. He is costing a lot of money, for sure!!!.What is your opinion of the Porsche Carrera 2 seat I mentioned, at the end the cost would be the same and they look more slimmer?

Gav240z Posted April 21, 2004 Author Share #40 Posted April 21, 2004 I do like them indeed, but am wondering about how much they are and anything porsche is gonna be expensive unfortunately I am still a student and money is a bit tight but at the same time i don't wanna buy something only to buy something else later. I really like the stock seats but support is an issue and I'm not sure if padding them up extra would work or not. I guess I really wanted everyone's opinion on them otherwise I'll keep saving what i originally planned to do and build another motor up . In a couple of weeks I will get to see a few Z's as I am organising another get together for the club i helped start here in melbourne and a few have racing seats in their Z which i think works well and when i see them in person do like alot so I guess I'll take it from there.

Those Porsche seats you showed are awesome, I think they'd really suit a Z. They remind me of a Z seat, except with more support! The only problem would be finding some for a decent price... like Gav mentioned. I agree those yellow seats look a little sofa-like! Gav, stop thinking about your arse and buy some REAL buckets!!!

v12horse Posted April 21, 2004 Share #42 Posted April 21, 2004 There is someone on this forum that has the Porsche seats installed in their Zed. I do not remember whose car or what car it was, but they did look very nice in the car. The Z seats are very reminescent of the Porsche seats but the Porsche seats have a modern twist and probably a lot more support. Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav240z Posted April 22, 2004 Author Share #43 Posted April 22, 2004 the member is Saint or saint Z i'll have a look. I had a look at Miata seats or MX5 as the Aussies will know it. They look nice but because there in such a cheap car I feel there cheap in general so I'm not sure.I like my bottom BTW Alfadog haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfadog Posted April 22, 2004 Share #45 Posted April 22, 2004 Yep, those look very nice in there. You'll find they are very very supportive... and REAL leather. 944 seats have less lateral support, although I think the 944 S2 has different seats....The later ones are electric in the 911 aswell, but it's the whole price thing though isnt it...

speedyblue Posted April 24, 2004 Share #46 Posted April 24, 2004 I got my seats re-trimmed about 3 years ago for about $350. It was a budget job and it shows a bit in some areas, but I got rid of the vinyl and went for grey cloth with blue piping. I am pretty happy with them.my seats Better than ripped vinyl poking you in the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
