Hey guys,
basically i desperately need some freakin seats for my hachi, i tried KE70/AE71 seats but they didnt fit properly (had to bend rails a lil bit) and they sit too high anyway (i'm fairly tall)...
i'm wondering if thers something easy and preferably cheap i can do to get my car on the road? or perhaps if someone as any hachi rails they'd be able to part with that would be awesome too
thanks for the help

all sorted, ended up welding KE70 seat rails to the bracket part of the AE86 rails.. kinda hard to explain but oh so effective http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

yeah you can get them in. one hole needed a few mm of encouragement, from my distant recollection, but it's a goer.

Besides AE86 JDM seats.. what other seats will bolt stright on.. yet look good and hug as well as jdms?
What about AE111/101 seats? they look pretty good

ra65 or ma61 seats bolt right in pretty much. Might need to drill a new hole in the mounts and do a bit of filing, but they fit and they're pretty good

MA61 seats need a lot of filing to the point where there isn't much left of the mounts, it was not quite enough metal. I ended up welding new plates onto mine, they didn't have to be very big, just to extend the mounts slightly.
They are alright seats tho, hold me pretty well and aren't uncomfy.....pneumatic lumbar support ftw! haha
