I used to own a nissan sunny coupe and was thinking that maybe the seats will be nice in my 260Z. I will try to locate one in a junkyard (shouldn't be to dificult).

 

But I was wondering if it was ever sold in the US.

 

here's a picture from my album:

It was a rather nice car. It had a 1.6 liter 12 valve engine that was very smooth. Not very powerfull but fast enough. Don't think about siting in the back for long though. A friend of mine also had one. We ones went to euro disney with that car. On the way back I fell asleep in the back (folden double). That was the fastest 350 miles ever. Closed my eyes in Paris and when I opened them I was near Amsterdam. :-D

 

To bad He parked it backwards in a ditch at high speed though. Car was totaled but even worse. His girlfriend wass upset.

Hey cool!

 

I used to have one of those, 1987 Nissan Sentra Hatchback. it was a really fun little car, and kept going and going, which was a big surprise considering that I only paid 700$ for it! (and with the rear seats down you could carry two S30 fenders, a fourspeed trans, and four SOHC heads. )(and if so inclined, you could go for a quicky in the back too!) :oops:

 

I really miss that car and hope that my X is taking good care of it. somehow though, I seriously doubt that. :roll:

 

wish I could find another one in that price range.

 

here is one on autotrader.com:

On the tangent of seats - my next project is to find a good pair of JY buckets, and re-cover them with Katskin

Or another company's similar product leather seat covers.

 

My buddy mike did this with a pair of mid-90's Dodge Intrepid buckets in his 240Z. They are big, but very comfy.

 

The stock buckets in my 300ZX are nearly flat, I don't know if they ever had bolsters, but anything would be an improvement
