It states in the listing that they were Recaro rails. They are, in fact, the factory Recaro rails for the Z32 as they're identical to the ones I have fitted in mine.

 

I've also a sneaky feeling that the seller was the same guy I was in talks with back in 2014 who told me he'd sold them to a guy in Italy for over £300.... *uh huh*

Did you find them difficult to fit? I had a pain trying to get the seats out to swap sides!

All Recaro Speed seats share the same bolt pattern on the underside of the seat, Dan - aside from the actual trim on the seats themselves, there's no physical differences between those fitted as an option by Nissan and a pair of Speeds bought from a Recaro supplier. :thumbup1:

 

Did you end up buying the ones you linked, Dan?

I found them really easy to fit aside from one of the rear bolts on each seat. I found I had to dismantle half the runner to be able to bolt the seat up, then reassemble the runner afterwards.

Yeah, the back bolts are where I had the problem. Although I have a 2+2 so it could be better or worse. I don't think Recaros were offered on any 2+0 model - do the rails still fit correctly?

yes I did get them, getting the recaro speed soon once the paint is done, so your saying they will bold rite up then. so the seat rail holes were done to fit the seats not the other way round

[Mondo]

The rails that you've bought, and that I have fitted in my own Zed, were made by Recaro specifically so their Speed seats could be fitted directly into a Z32 as an optional extra.

super that's cool then that's what I needed, I take it them rails are very rare then , the bride seat rails I was looking at came to £400 plus post for the pair.

As I said before, the seller (if it's the same chap) messed me around back in 2014 and then claimed he'd sent them to Italy for over £300... but the pictures on that recent listing are the very same pictures that he sent me....

 

Hopefully they'll actually be delivered for you!

 

They're rare inasmuch that there were less Z32s fitted with the optional Recaros than were fitted with the standard seats. But if you want to fit Recaro seats in any car, you simply can't do better than using Recaro's own mounting rails :thumbup1:

I see did you pay then he gave you a refund or something

No, he kept telling me to make an offer for them - when I did, he told me someone else had offered more so I'd need to offer more.

 

I got a bit bored with that and the next thing I knew, they were apparently going to Italy. It looks as if they either didn't make it there or got sent back again....

very strange hay all over some seat rail of all things
