    Default What seat can be fitted on AE86?

    I have tried to find information in regards to what seats bolt directly to AE86 and all I gathered is AW11 and not to mentioned AE86.
    Is there anyone help me with this

    you mean other toyota seats, whose rails bolt to the AE86 floorpan? or other seats that bolt to the AE86 seat rails?

    and why?

    you can get aftermarket rails (recaro/bride etc) to fit any aftermarket seat as well...

    If you mean other Toyota seats which bolt up (or nearly do) to the stock bolt holes then I have heard of:

    AW11
    2ZZ MR2 (ZZW???)
    A6 Celica, and MA61

    Of course, treat all of them as rumours, I have never tried them myself.

    It will be bolt on to the AE86 floorplan. I want a more comfortable seat for daily driving.

    I have a pair of MA61 seats in my sprinter.

    Got them on assurance that only 1 hole was out.

    Got the driver's seat to fit half a chance by drilling one hole, and some hammering,
    remodelling of the rail, but I need to revisit this, as it sits a bit on the piss.

    So, no ma61 seats do not fall into place.

    Comfortable seats tho.

    Also worth looking around the ae86 related forums, few pairs of jdm ae86 seats
    have been up for grabs, prices were reasonable too.

    Would obviously bolt straight in.

    The early soarer (MZ10?) seats bolt directly in! I've got a set in my car, they sit a bit higher than stock AE86 ones, but they are comfy and hug well! Basically the same seat as MA61. Could you get MA61 seats and bolt the AE86 rails to them?

    looked at this, and it looked almost possible

    will investigate this next weekend, will try to change over the passenger's seat rails.

    As oldcorollas as suggested, wouldn't it be better to find a Bride or Recaro seat rail and get the respective seats ? The seat rails would be a direct bolt on and save you having to modify anything.

    Ummmm. Shouldn't mz1x, RA6x and MA61 all be the same?

    I have AE86 Rails in my RA65, I had to file the rear mounts out and I cut and shut the front two back and out by a bit.
