Rich.2211 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I can't be much help with the rest but I am pretty sure you can't use the rails off a set of stock seats. Unless you were pretty handy and fabricated something your self out of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra joe Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I'm sure stock rails are able to weld on, with a bit of fabrication but sit higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 As joe has said, you can fab the stock rails to fit, but its a major pain in the hole. You need to get hold of a seat of Stock Recaro Rails which will fit perfect, but there are rare as rocking horse poop, or use Bride RO rails, these fit perfect also but are about £200 each, not including delivery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 , thought they would be rare like, Il wait til they get delivered and see if i can fab something from some stock or universal ones, unless a set pop up Cheers for the input fellas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Yep they are a pita to find. I have some buckets mounted in my other car. And they sit higher. It makes the car wierd to drive and the rear view mirror gets in the way of your view. I'd definitely get them done at the correct hight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 Are the bolt holes in a standard place on all recaros?( As in where the rail bolts too the seat) ive been looking about and theres loads about for other models so i think it may be easier to adapt those to fit unless i can find supra specific ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I'd imagine they are too high the ones in the supra are very low to the floor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 I'd imagine they are too high the ones in the supra are very low to the floor Yeah your right they are mounted pretty low, il just see what i can do once i have the seats in front of me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2supra Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I put the recaro DC2 seats (recaro Speed) into my supra using the bride RO rails, fit and finish is top notch. I wouldn't skimp on safety equipment just get a set of bride RO rails and mount them correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra Gaz Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 The bride rails are not only expensive but also rare, the only place I know that sells them with them in stock is RHD Japan. As mentioned you can play with the stock rails a bit to get them on, if you are tall it will be a ball ache though because you will sit quite high unless you properly cut them up.
