I really need to know if a 94 Miatas seats will fit in a 1978 280Z with little or no modifacations. I have found a pair for 100.00. And they are in great shape. The car only has 30k. It was totalled. Someone decided the hood was to long. so please anyone who has any info that could help I would greatly appreciate it before these seats go to someone else.

Try'em out. Pull one out either at his place or yours. for the price you got nothing to lose but maybe an hour for a good deal on nice seats. Personally I don't know if they'll fit or not.

Years ago I purchase a set of after market seats. They were very kool. When I mounted them in the car I found that I sat alittle higher. I had driven the car for so long, it felt awkward. When I bought my current 71 Z, my wife reminded me what happened and encouraged me update my current seats. We used the stock pattern with tweed inserts that matches the color of my custom paint. This worked better for me this time. Good Luck with your conversion / hunt. I am sure there is a better selection than what I had 9 years ago.

I say go for it. You are saving $200-$400 off of any other aftermarket seat or any other manufactuer. You can always buy some of the adapter kits that the aftermarket seat makers sell. I just pick up some 90 300zx seats for $66 they are in great shape excepto for someh wear on the side bolster where you get into the car. No biggy since I plan on covering them in leather.

Thank you all for the responses. I puchased them and will be installing them soon. the measurements are reall close looks like a very small amount of modifacations needed. I will post photos when I have them installed.
