April 27, 200321 yr comment_35330 Here's an article that features a 240Z with the seats you are talking about. Nice lookin' Z and 510!

May 7, 200321 yr comment_36553 Yes, they do fit, but there are a few things you may want to consider. First you should relocate the seat holes so that the seat sits closer to the middle of the car. This willl keep the shoulder bolster from hitting the door. Second, the seat height will be higher than the stock 240Z seats. If you are tall, and like to sit low, or do motorsport events that require a helmet, you will need to lower the seat mounts (cutting, welding, etc).The Torinos won't go back as far as the stock seats eaither due to the recline knobs on the sides (like a VW). They are awesome seats though.I went with the Corbeau GT7s, which are alomost the same dimensions as the 240Z seat, but they do sit up higher. On the drivers side I had to fabrcate new seat mounts to lower the seat. They are awesome seats though.Hope this helpsPete Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/5860-will-these-seats-fit-my-car/#findComment-36553 Share on other sites More sharing options...

May 7, 200321 yr comment_36563 That's the 510 rear suspension with an R200 LSD installed. The magazine got the pictures in the wrong order.Pete Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/5860-will-these-seats-fit-my-car/#findComment-36563 Share on other sites More sharing options...
May 7, 200321 yr comment_36568 ahhhh... ok. makes sense now. i'm not too familiar with the 510's. although, it was odd looking at the bottom side of my car and having someone say it was a 510...:stupid: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/5860-will-these-seats-fit-my-car/#findComment-36568 Share on other sites More sharing options...
