If they are oem seats you only have to modify the location points. Drill and welder is all you need.

Okay your very close minded. It's been done, there are write ups on how to do it. The seats (even the R34) are uneven on the seat bottom so you cant just buy rails. To make them work you need to modify the OEM seat brackets. Mock them up and get them welded properly.

hmm i guess im closed minded oh well........

my fault the seats i have are east bear sigmas they look identical to r34 seats so i assumed. but now looking at them the bootoms are very different . my seats have a flat bottom. where you attack the rails to the bottom of the seat as where r34 seat attach towards the sides.

post pics. if there like the r32 gtr seat you just have to extend the mount 3 or so inches by drilling out the spot weld, adding an eighth inch piece of metal and having some one welding it all back together.(i have done this numerous times, i even have a 32 passenger seat in my car) its not jerry rigging thats just how you mount seats. im not aware of any seat brackets for r34 to s13

mkk thats not stock lol. you sure there 34 seats? if so you could get sliders for an r34 and modify them or if you know what seat they are, you could possible see if they make them for the s13. i thought you has stock r34 seats, btw i <3 your car

the post before the one says that they are eastbear sigma sports, i assumed that they were the same as r34 seats as far a mounting goes but they arent. i think ill be fine going with some bride mo rails they seem like they are pretty universal when it comes to bottom mount set ups.
