Mounts for a MKIV supra should be perfect if not really close.

the supra ones are close, but not perfect. there's only a couple japanese only manfuacturers (recaro being one of them) that make some, but they are really hard and expensive to get.

soarer and supra rails need slight modifications to fit

i thought you were selling your car and moving to a JZZ30, dude.

Im going to re-think my GS build and tone it down from VIP to more of a sporty DD... VIP is not for me.

EDIT: Ill be doing MKIV rails for sparcos I will be getting, the modification is pretty easy actually.

sparco brackets for the MKIV you will need to extend the rear inner mount and will need to a little persuasion in slightly conforming other mounts.

I have sparcos in my Jzs147's and depending on your seat, you will sit low.

So what's the deal with the PLANTED Racing Seat Brackets that are ALL OVER Ebay? I had already kinda planned on going that route and getting a pair of decent light weight carbon fiber and "leather" seats for my GS3 2jzge.

This is the link that says:

I picked up a set as well, they are made here in Washington and are THICK but I have yet to buy seats to try them. Good reviews though.

Sorry man I just can't say hey Joe without that song going through my head. Did you ever get these seats or do anything more seat related?
I was out at the LKQ last weekend and was walking around looking for this sc300 that had some decent seats that I had already askedspa week or two earlier. Well.... My partner who happensh to be with me spots an 02 GS300 (which I have already heard the seats aren't interchangeable) he shouts back to me that they're in perfect condition so I go back for a look. He was right. They're perfect. Not the right color even but there's not a crack or scratch on them anywhere. F it iI' getting these, even if I gotta weld some new mounts in my car or make adapters to get them to fit I'm gonna do it. So I'm about to post something right now to get some help getting these to fit. Assuming I'm going to have to do some welding etc...

Just wanted to mention the headache I just took on. I guess I'm the guy who doesn't like to hear it "can't" be done.
