[ae71wagoneer]

i have heard or read some where that suzuki swift GTI front seats fit in a KE70/AE71.is this true and how difficult are they to fit?the base of my drivers seat sank on way home from work today and i want to upgrade without going the "boy racer" look.:lolcry:

Hey dude i put the same seats in my Ke10 they went in with out to much trouble :)

The seat rails need to be swap over otherwise easy enough.

However, they do sit alot higher, if your tall then don't bother... had them in my ae86 and my head kept tapping the room when on bumper roads or speed humps. (6ft)

R33 gtst seats fit with a few bends, so Ive been told. Need to bend the front tabs down with a shifter etc.

i have a passenger seat from a 86 swift (85-88 is the same..?) in the ke55 didnt need any mods - already had the exact holes in the seat base, bolted the rails straight in,

measurements are length (front of car to rear) 320mm and 385mm wide, thats going centre bolt hole to centre.... would be interesting to know what fits yours anyways cause

i spent a whole day walking the yard measuring up a bolt in seat ....

I got my seats from a Swift GTI 1992/3 (GA)

had to remove the seat rails that bolted into the swift seat and replace it with the ae71, had to drill new holes in the rail to bolt in.

 

come to think of it, the AE71 stock seats sit alot higher than the ae86 seats so maybe the swift seats might work out alright.

went with s14 silvia seats.front mounts line up perfect,rear inside mount lines up with seat belt mount(not seat mount) and rear outside mount had to be moved forward approx 100mm.:yes:
