BRIDE FO slider seat rails in S30 - fitment FYI

Hi all

I recently ordered some Bride FO slider seat rails from a company called Greenline Motorsports - they are a Hong Kong based shop with a location in Japan that will conveniently sell you any Japanese parts and ship them to you regardless of where you are in the world...

So I ordered some FO type slider seat rails for my S30 with then intent to use them in conjunction with an older Recaro SPG I've got from a previous car.

While everything did bolt in exactly as expected, it turns out that the end result puts the Recaro SPG about 2" higher than the stock seat, and that unfortunately is a big problem when you are 6'2"

So FYI, if you are putting in a modern bucket seat, but want to retain a sliding seat - don't get these rails if you are above 6' tall - it just won't work - you'll never have the room to sit down and put a helmet on without rubbing the headliner.

If you're right on the cusp of 6' tall, you could take out about 1" from these rails with some cutting/hacking... but probably no more...
