Oh man, I would have to agree with Z_WRECKER on this one! It's very difficult to find a stock Z31 seat nowadays that's in immaculate condition and not cracked or *GOD forbid* ripped to shreds on the driver's side. But even a set of stock leather/vinyl seats that's in decent condition would cost you an arm and a leg, and to be quite honest...they're not all that good-looking or comfortable either (I still have my stock seats, and they're pretty nasty and stiff).

Keep in mind that not all things factory from Nissan are perfect. For instance, the factory Z31 and Z32 rims are DAMN UGLY! I think someone else had already mentioned this in a previous post, so I'm not going to continue beating the dead horse.

I think if Z_WRECKER wants to get a set of Nismo, Sparco, or whatever seats that look and feel nice, I'd ask him to hook me up with a set too...

P.S. No, that's not my car! It's just one of those pics in circulation that Rizz was talking about...

I dobn't think the z32 wheels are ugly..I like my aftermarket wheels much more, but the stock one's are quite nice as well. They fit the car nice. And z31 seats...I understand that..not very nice...but z32 seats are fantastic! and you can always get them reupholstered for quite an inexpensive price if you shop around. and the z32 seats do look great IMO. Rizz and 91zxtt..where are you to back me up on this? I agree that not everything is perfect, but the seats are pretty classy and sporty at the same time.

I love the seats in my Z32. Soft, supportive, and stylish would be my words of choice. My only complaint will be their weight. They are damn heavy!

As far as the Z32 stock wheels are concerned, I like them to an extent. Of course, I'm used to them by now, but at least they serve a purpose other than cosmetic. The Z32 stock wheels were also designed with cooling in mind. The rotation of the wheels actually helps to cool the brakes. Provided that the wheels are actually in their proper locations and are facing the correct way helps as well.

ok fellas, i never said the seats are ugly or not comfortable... i love my z32 seats don't get me wrong, there is a little bit of wear on the drivers side, and i just wanted another pair of seats. i love these seats, they are pretty light, they look clean ( alll black except a nismo logo on the top), and if i ever change my mind i still have my z32 seats which are in great shape except a little wear on the drivers side, which i tend to get redone....so to all of you i love my stock seats, and ppl do say that they are comfortable, but nismo foam holds me in place much firmer, since today i got to drive my z on the road... i just couldn't wait anymore.... i was taking those curves fast as hell, and in those seats i felt like i was part of the car... i didn't feel as much g force as usual

Damn it!!! I keep forgetting that this is the Z32 forum! If this was the Z31 forum, I think the conversation would have gone in a completely different direction.

Oh, I just saw a sweet@$$ Twin Turbo the other day for sale with only 70 some thousand miles on it for only 11,999! That is hella cheap!! I'm gonna pick that sucka up one of these days when I have some free time to travel to the burbs! Then I can make fun of the Z32 and have some substance to my accusations...

I just spoke with them, and it's still available!! Anyone have any suggestions as to where I could get a good low-interest auto loan for 12G, considering that I have great credit and steady income? Preferably a company that won't try to screw me...

I don't have any info, but that's pretty exciting that you're getting a TT maybe. You'll finally have a fast car! JK! But seriously man, thats real exciting. Congrats! Keep us updated.

Credit Unions usually have some pretty decent used car rates. It depends a lot on how old though. I didn't see what year TT we were talking about. I know some people at Wells Fargo. It seems like they have some programs that could help.

No, he asked for advice on buying the car...if he isnt gonna be able to pay the payments or isnt sure whether he can or not, maybe it's not a good idea. It's sweet that he might get a TT...but it would suck to screw his credit.

Then why let him and his financial institution of choice, decide that. No need for him to post his personal information for the whole world to see.

Yeah, I read every bit of that...thanks everyone!~

And Emo, personally I have no problems with the questions you raised, although of course Rizz also made a very good point. But to ease your worries, I do have a very stable job, steady income throughout the year, excellent credit, a decent amount of self-control, and no children!!! Hahaaha! I know they're great and all, but from listening to what my buddies have to say about the costs of raising one, I'm stayin' away from having any kids 'til I'm as old as Gandalf...

I'd say just call around. Call a bunch of different places. Sometime if you mention a deal that you're getting a one place, one place will try to do a little better to get your business....sometimes. But call around.
