I just replaced one of my S14 Leathers with this, R33 GT-R seat, it is so damn nice I can't believe it, it fits me perfect, feels tailor made for my body and holds me in place very nicely(I don't budge). Uses the same Alcantara cloth as the door panel trim on factory blk leather equipped cars it appears, matches almost perfectly. I couldn't be more happier. I am thinking of getting another for passenger or may try to find a blk or gray cloth S14 seat and store my leathers.

Actually the thing is incredibly solid, yet it gives enough to conform just a bit, the covering is basically ultra-suede so it grips and is incredibly comfortable. I'm sure others can attest to this seat's merits better than I, because it's new to me I'm still getting used to it :)

It looks like suede... looks damn good too. Where'd you buy and how much? I'd like a pair... Would R32 Seats have been better?

Do you know if they'd bolt into an S13? The R33's I mean. Also, are they a lot higher than S13 seats? I'm used to sitting in low seats...can't have puffy Maxima seats again.

Thanks for the offers to buy my leathers, however I am going to keep them, if I decide to sell them I will post them in the for sale section, but it's very unlikely that will happen. 3 of the 4 bolts line up with the factory attach points, at least for the S14, and as you can swap S14 seats into S13's with no mods I would think these would be the same for S13's, you need to weld or bolt a small extender for the one that does not reach(it is just a bit too short to reach the attach point, it is lined up with it though), very easy to do. As for seat height, it seems to be perfect and matches stock seats almost exactly if not exactly, still have plenty of headroom. Only other thing I needed to do was swap the seat belt latch from my S14 seat...took 2 min.

fit fine in a S13...actually i think they fit better than stock. well not counting the bolt extension part.
