Recaro Podium seat frames
It's everybody's dream to own a JDM classic like the Nissan Silvia Spec-R but finding parts 30 years after the launch of the car can be a challenge. With the accurate 3D scanning technology that we use we can create custom made parts and incorporate modern technology in future classics. This S15 is now featured with carbon fiber Recaro Podium seats.
Project:
The downside of working on old cars is that the frame almost never is as straight as it left the factory and every owner has made her or his modifications. By scanning the car in high resolution 3D we can ensure that whatever we want to make fits like a glove. The Nissan Silvia S15 has one of the worst bumps in the floor to make the gearbox fit, it pushes the factory seat almost towards the headliner.
We've created seat mounts and rails that sit a flush possible and are track focused sturdy. The Recaro Podiums are epic seats on it's own but their carbon shape gives them zero flex and thus everything needs to fit exactly right. These seat mounts are made from steel combined with titanium hardware. A combination to allow massive strength and saving weight where possible.
