Basically I'm just curious to know how quickly the automatic seatbelts go from back to front on other s13's. Mine takes about 3.2 seconds. Make a new option if you need to. I know it's a bother to time yours just to suit my curiousity, but I thank you kindly for it.

i can say that my seatbelts' speed varies on what i have on in my car. i have so much electronics that i think it sometimes affects the seatbelt motor so when its normal, id say no more than 3 seconds.

I heard the same thing about that, Sometimes my automatic seatbelts try to kill me 3.2 seconds is fast enough.

Yeah, just go to a Nissan dealership and "remind" them about the warranty. Some of those guys "forget."

It doesn't matter how long it takes for the belt to get there, so long as it stays there while you're driving.

On a side note, my passenger-side belt moves more slowly, but that's because the belt doesn't slacken enough to let the motor do it's job sometimes.

I'm not too concerned with the speed of the belt, it is the crazy noises and straining sounds that get to me. It sounds like it will give up the ghost sometimes...
