ScienceofSpeed introduces Speed Engineering Sliding Seat Mounts

[ScienceofSpeed]

ScienceofSpeed introduces the Speed Engineering Sliding Seat Mounts - the best way to fit aftermarket side mount seats into the NSX.

The sliding mounts allow the seats listed as well as most other aftermarket seats to be installed into the NSX. The seat mounts including seat belt mounting brackets designed to place the seat belt in the correct factory angle position.

Compared to our prior design, the Speed Engineering Sliding Seat Rails offers several advantages:

• lighter & more rigid - by incorporating radiused brackets, the assembly is lighter and more rigid
• highly adjustable - the seat mounts will allow wide seats like the Recaro Pole Position and narrow seats like the Recaro SPG seat to fit. In addition, the mounts are universal between the driver and passanger side of left hand drive NSX
• low seating position - especially designed for track use, the mount allows most seats to sit all the way down on the carpect for maximum head room / helmet clearance in the NSX
• NSX-R seat compatible - the NSX-R seat has a completely different mounting pattern, and the seat mount is now designed to be compatible with these seats

The Speed Engineering Sliding Seat Mounts are laser cut and CNC bent for exacting precision. Lightweight materials, like the aluminum pull handle where used when possible to produce the lightest rail possible.

is this for one seat rail or 2?

 

[ScienceofSpeed]

The seat mounts are sold as one set. One set can install on either the driver or passanger side. You need one set per seat, two sets if you do driver and passenger both.

thank you,

Hi Chris,

Look like another Excellent Product from SOS.

However, the main question I would like to ask is...

How much do these seat rails weigh? :smile:

 

[ScienceofSpeed]

I measured a set today, they are 12.5 lbs. That's before powdercoat, but that should only add a negligible amount of weight. These are about 1.5 lbs lighter than the mounts we used to sell.

regards,
-- Chris

 

[ScienceofSpeed]

Here are two seats mounted on the seat mounts. Seat belt brackets not assembled. You can see how low the seats are able to be mounted on the rails.

Way to go Chris, long time due. The previous set worked nice too and were missed by many, these sound even better.

Do they accept the standard 3 point seat belt clasps?
Have you any photos of the seat belt brackets fitted please?

 

[ScienceofSpeed]

Yes, these are designed to work with the factory seat belt brackets as long as your seat is designed to work with a 3-pt factory style belt. We'll post some more photos with the seat belt brackets attached soon.

Here are photos with the NSX-R seat shell. These rails allow use of the factory 3-point belts with seats specifically made to allow 3-point belts to be used.

Chris,

a friend of mine from Switzerland sent you an email last week (i don't know what day) about these rails... he needs a set (driver and passenger) very urgent, for Recaro Pole Positions... please do answer his email....

Thanks,
Nuno

 

[ScienceofSpeed]

All e-mails up until Friday have been answered, so I assume he has an e-mail reply. We have these in stock ready to ship.

Cheers,
-- Chris

Chris,

thanks... can you please also send to my email ([email protected]) all the steps and info on payment, address, etc, for them buy the rails?

i ask you this, because they had a very limited english understanding, and i can just give the info to them so they understand it clearly.

Thanks,
Nuno

Chris, with the Recaro pole positions and these mounts, do the seats sit higher/lower then OEM, or the same? Thanks,

 

[UnhuZ]

^ excellent question :wink:

 

[ScienceofSpeed]

Chris, with the Recaro pole positions and these mounts, do the seats sit higher/lower then OEM, or the same? Thanks,

Signficantly lower (about an inch lower with the cushion and 2 inches with out). These rails can put the Recaro seat so low that it touches the carpeting.

I'm noticing the adjustable holes, at which position is the seat height similar to OEM? Or, are you saying that even at the highest setting, the pole position sits an inch lower then OEM?

[ScienceofSpeed]

The photo you showed is of the NSX-R seat, which does not have the same bolt pattern as the Pole Position.

The Pole Position at it's lowest setting can sit down on the floor. This can be raised higher if needed - about the same height as a stock seat.
