cheap nismo racing seats

[240DRFT]

i was looking on ebay at stuff and i found these "nismo" racing seats. they look like a cheap copy of the real nismo, the logo looks different too

i guess i'm just asking if anybody knows what those are.

[Silent Drifter]

Those are seats. I would be careful because 283 that better be per seat and not for both otherwise i wouldnt get them b/c they might fall apart.

no their definitely knockoffs.... if you know the law you have to change a companies logo by 20%.... look closely and examine a real nismo logo with that one, its changed 20% miraculously! they look floppy and cheap anyway, i would just buy one real seat and not mess with a pair, after all, I do the driving, the passenger can be thrown around all they want, doesn't make me loose control of the car!

Yea they are knockoffs. My buddy bought a similar pair for $280, they seem alright. Not high quality stuff but way better than the ripped leather seats he had before. He has his car in pieces so I haven't had the opportunity to test them out.

I believe the same guy makes fake Ralliart racing seats for Mitsubishis and someone on 3si.org went ahead and bought them for the fun of it. He said they weren't that bad of a pair of seats. Hey, for the price, why not? They get the job done.

I have them, I love them.

Even though they are knockoffs they are nice seats.

Is he in on the joke yet guys? I mean really.

[whiterps13]

they may be nice cosmetically, but think about if you were to get in an accident. would you trust these cheap seats with your life? i certainly wouldnt. sparco, momo, bride... all have history in racing and actually test thier seats.

Man, those are fugly no doubt about it. Get the non badged R1 seats. Friend of mine has them and they are pretty decent.

I got into an accident with them, totaled my car actually. They survived, I came out w/o a scratch. They serve their purpose, and they actually work and look good. I can't justify spending $$$$$$ on sparcos when my knockoffs do exactly the same thing.

[INeedNewTires]

have you ever sat in a sparco seat? or howabout a Bride? your answer is either no, because you dont know how much better they areor yea, and you dont autoX or have a need to be stuck in your seat.

Seriously people, ive sat in alot of seats, these as well as other knockoffs are made of floppy, unsupportive foam that doesnt keep its shape nor hold you in even close to what a real racing seat does. Now, granted, they are alot better than stock S13 seats, cause those just plain suck. But if your going to upgrade seats for the real reason of upgrading, driver controll.... just buy one driver seat from a reputable company. Even if you get a non adjustable morroco or sparco and get a harness to make up for the difference, it will be huge over these cheap turds. I own a Bride Brix I.... oh MAN is that thing sweet, i dont even need a seatbelt and i cant MOVE while im driving. its the best driver control upgrade for any kind of racing in my book. I never actually realized the difference untill i drove my friends S13 with stock seats, i was getting thrown all around, tossed side to side, my feet slipped off the pedals, i almost missed a gear while in a constant radius turn.... it was awful

if your gonna do it, do it right... if you NEED to be held in because of your driving forte, get a (one) quality seat and enjoy it, it will make a huge difference.

As ive said before, I do the driving, the passenger can be thrown around all they want, doesn't make me loose control of the car! IMO ricers get 2 seats, and their usually red or worse, and they buy them for 'style points' or to get chicks. hahaha, seriously.. wtf

my fat *** can't fit into brides. i heard if you have anything over a 34 inch waist, you're gunna be very uncomfortable.
