Are you asking me? If so, They are bride zeta III seats with bride rails as well.

They fit well, but when installing, make sure you adjust the seats on the rails all the way towards the center of the car. Otherwise, the shoulder of the seat could come in contact with your rear door handle, Depending on how far back you have your seat.

I'm not sure which ones they are. i believe they are Bride FG Seat Rail - Height Adjustable for Bride Bucket Seats.

i just went in to my local shop, www.tintmasters.net , and my dude called his dealer and ya, hooked me up with this.

here's what they look like.... http://www.more-japan.com/product.ph...cat=335&page=1

Directions are in Japanese.....go figure. Not hard to figure it out though.

The rails come with brackets that will mount the seat to the rails. The rails bolt right up to the holes on the floor of the 8. Where ever you order from, just ask them to make sure, if you're not positive.

I'm about 5'- 6" with a 32' waist. I have the seat all the way forward when I drive ( could move it a lil back if I wanted), and I fit amazingly in the seat. Super comfortable.

If you have a local shop I would think they would be able to, otherwise try www.more-japan.com. They should have what ever it is you are looking for.

^^^you gotta check around on the manufactuers websites, most of them post specs on waste size, lumbar size, driver's hieght, etc, etc,,, some seats are can be ordered in different specs,,, recommend a non Japanese manufactuer(Bride) they tend to make smaller sized seats....

I was at a racing shp yesterday and got to sit in a ton of seats...I am almost tempted to get a pair of seats.. They actually seemed for comfortable than the seats that come with the car.

I see some of you have more of a sport seat than a racing seat, do you have any problem with the seatbelt not sitting against your body correctly?
