Hey all. having some problems with my 4age corolla. suspension is stiff as f@$k and as you can guess ke70 seats aren't exactly the best seats to sit in. so I was wondering if any more comfortable preferably bucket style seats from other cars fit in with no or little modification. I have been told r32 gtst seats fit with an adapter plate or something for one of the holes ( i don't know how true that is) but if anyone knows any seats that can fit into my ae71 i would like to know cheers

don't quote me on this. But I belive ke70 seats will bolt straight in.

 

Edit, Sorry, I have been on boost to much :)

 

Most if not all new seat's you bolt in will require modifying the seat rail's, which is just generally screwing a new hole

ra60 celica are more comfy and more hold to them.

R32 ones are supposedly an easy fit. All ya gotta do is bend the fronts of the rails 90 degrees. Ae86. Paseo? But really, anything. Aftermarket Autotechnicas bolt onto the rails perfect.

i suggest bypassing any standard seats.

 

pick up a recaro SR3 seat from an importer, for about $400.

 

cut the rail off your ke70 seat, and bolt it to the recaro. (drilling and forthought required)

 

go and get a mod plate. and be comfy!

 

i recently picked up a standard integra DC2 recaro (SR3), damn nice seat, got it for $400. so comfy.

 

you can stuff around with factory seats from celicas etc, but the recaro will be better than all of them!

 

i tried to put a R32 seat in my ke70 once, it looked like it may fit, but it sat quite high compared to stnadard ke seats.

How much was your mod plate Dave? I should really do mine.

$80.

 

but was mates rates;)

 

dunno what retail costs. mate of mine from church mod plated everything i needed. don't think he does it any more though.

Recaro SR3 for 400 bucks? That's pretty damn cheap, you talking new or secondhand?

nah was 2nd hand. pretty good condition.

 

i think they are about 1000bucks new.

 

ended up being $500 including a genuine recaro seat rail too (this for the s15)

 

one of these suckers.

celica ones bolt straight in, I had the supergay bucket seats and there crap, they sit way too high on the standard rails.

ra60 is easy, put ke70 rail on, all you have to do is elongate a couple holes.

 

I do have some monza bucket seats for sale ready to bolt into ke70 though ;)
