Jaz 350z Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Hello All! I am, and have been for a while, after some seats to turn into gaming chairs. I dont care if they are 350z ones, as long as they are comfortable. I dont want rover 25 seats or anything, they need to look nice and hold my delicate areas for hours on end. If anyone knows where I could pick up some unused seats for a relatively small fee, please let me know. Thanks! Jaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaz 350z Posted October 23, 2013 Author Share Posted October 23, 2013 I do, But they tend to only have parts that would take too much time to fix or cost a bomb. Got quoted 200quid for a drivers side seat recently, they cant possibly be worth that. Admittedly it was a merc seat but still. They definitely arent worth that to me. haha.

KyleR Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Second hand bucket seats pop up pretty often on eBay for around £100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliveBoy Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 you can buy cheap non FIA approved bucket seats for fairly cheap and they have a flat bottom on them unlike a lot of OEM seats. Then it would be new and pretty comfy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottboy Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Mazda rx8 seats are dirt cheap and look great. Also comfortable and leather? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gudzy Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I bought a cobra clubman seat which was out of a mini for £40 on eBay from a guy that was just down the road from me. I've mounted it on an old office chair base and use in the gaming/ cinema room. The plan was to put it in the mx5 but looks like that will be sold before I get chance to get the seat put in. Before that I had a pair of seats out of an Impreza. I sold those recently for about £50 for the pair. They were good for the purpose, nice and comfy but supportive and adjustable.

Jaz 350z Posted October 23, 2013 Author Share Posted October 23, 2013 Thats my aim, I want to use it for racing games... I have the order all ready to go for a fanatec CSR.

KyleR Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 But… there seems to be a good few Fanatec users here, did you buy them because it's the only premium wheel available for Xbox or are some of you using them for PS3 or PC?

jumping350 Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 There are a lot of fanatec users aren't they, maybe its because of the pedals? They are one of the top on the market, i use a tricked out logitech g25 with Leo bodnar extras its pretty cool. You can buy a converter for the xbox if you wanted a different wheel, hows the t500 not seen many with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
