proxlamus© Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Anyone looked into these seats before??! I am looking for more supportive "bucket" seats but I am also trying to have the car look fairly stock!!! Corbeau offers these Classic seats for about $300 plus free shipping for orders over $300 =) I would buy two though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrest Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Those look really nice. The question is, how well do they fit? I really hope you get them and let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryb Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I dont like those at all...... they remind me of seats on a pontoon boat. I suggest the Soltice seats, they look very close to the original early Z seats and have decent support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Looks too tall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMWHYR0HEN Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Prox, Don't you auto-X once in a while? You should look into something with shoulder support. For 300 bucks each, i'd pass them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I am looking for more supportive "bucket" seats but I am also trying to have the car look fairly stock... These accomplish exactly what you are looking for: 1) a "stock" (period-correct) looking seat that 2) is "supportive." Yes, these are pretty cool. I think they beat the stock seats too. However, they are a bit pricey. Are they leather? I hope so. Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavyZ Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Wow, even better! I bet they are Japan-only and pricey too? Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryb Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Im pretty sure this oufit carried them...but I believe they were about $1000 for the pair. Cant find them on the e-store, perhaps they were discontinued?? http://www.zccjdm.com/catalog.php/azcarbum/ct15419/KAMEARI__DATSUN_PERFORMANCE_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryb Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Found them.... http://www.zccjdm.com/catalog.php/azcarbum/dt43199/pd1055561/KAMEARI_PERFORMANCE_SEATING_ $1600 for the pair!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I'm seriously considering the purchase of those seats late next year so that they are not discontinued and I'd then have to pay triple to find a pair of suitable seats or get some made to look like that. I think they are the best looking race-bucket style classic seats. A little on the expensive side, but the detail on the air-buttons, the side bolstering smoothness, and the textured look of the back and butt rest... 9.5/10. I'd give them a 10, but I don't own them. That's the only thing I found wrong with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HS30-H Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 The Kameari seats are replicas of the original Nissan 'Sports Option' U0175 bucket seats that came to be nicknamed the 'Datsun Bucket' in Japan. They were first offered as a Sports Option part on the 510 Bluebird in 1969 ( hence that 'U0175' part number suffix ) and they lasted right through until the early 1980s, when they were still being offered as an option on the BS110 Nissan 240RS homologation specials. In 1992 Nissan made a limited-edition re-issue version trimmed in leather in commemoration of NISMO's 10th anniversary. I have a pair in one of my cars, and they look very nice and 'period correct' - but I have to mention that they not very comfortable and, as you can see from the design, don't offer very much in the way of shoulder support. They are however better than the stock seats, which I think are awful...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proxlamus© Posted October 27, 2008 Author Share Posted October 27, 2008 thanks for the info Alan! I have a pair in one of my cars, and they look very nice and 'period correct' - but I have to mention that they not very comfortable and, as you can see from the design, don't offer very much in the way of shoulder support. They are however better than the stock seats, which I think are awful...... For $1,600 I would hate to spend the money on uncomfortable seats.. for that amount of money I can get some super nice, adjustable, FIA approved Sparco or Recaro seats!!

Careless Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I'D STILL ROCK THEM! thanks for the info! I wonder if they are available with the rest of the part number.... hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavyZ Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 For $1600 I could buy Recaro seats and not worry about having to look period correct. Man, the price makes me twitch. Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
