Will Sparco Torinos fit in a 240sx?

Does anyone know if Sparco Torinos would fit in a 91 240sx fastback? I hear that there are some issues with aftermarket seats. Just wanted to see if anyone could confirm/deny this.

Thanks,

Dan

i don't know about those spesific seats, however most of them just need brackets made (sometimes custom).. and even the custom ones don't cost more than a couple hundred at tops..

i don't know if i remember correctly but i think theres a hump on the floor of the car that the bracket would normally go onto and this causes problems with mounting a regular bracket but as it goes with just about everything you can just make a custom bracket and figure out a way to make it work

I read the article in SCC and that is the reason why I started this thread. I just wanted to see if anyone had experience trying to fit the Torinos in their car.

all 24ds need special brackets more or less. You are gonna have to fab them or buy them.(reason is the cat hump drvs side and the bolt to the tranny hump)

The 24d seat is a side bolt whereas the aftermarket are popular with bolting underneath.

Common mod is washers and redrill to make them fit. i believe the slider is from 120-200 per seat alone!

Side note find r32 seats cheaper, bolt up and offer good support and comfort...or s14 seats.
