stock seats too small
 

Stock seats. I hate them. I am too big for them at 6'1" and 190 lbs. They are like sitting on a toilet bowl. Does anyone know if wider or seats with softer side bolsters will fit. Like maybe from an Altima? Will they bolt right in? The stock seats are designed for a 5'7" 150 lb. person.

LOL I agree.. I am 6'2" 260 and I just barely fit lol. I make due cause I love the car so much :)

how the hell are they too small? im 6'0 and 230 and they are perfect... It's a sports car gentlemen not a luxury sedan

damn, i feel sorry for your toilet. :icon14:

I understand that.. I had a luxury sedan and bought my Z.. its an adjustment but I barely notice it when I press the gas and let out the clutch!

:icon18::icon18::icon18: agreed haha

I hate the seats also. There is so little padding in the side and leg bolsters that you can feel the seat frame. There not too bad for tooling around town, but for long road trips, they suck, at least for me. I'm 6'4' and 225lbs.

Dude what are you complaining about?!!?!? You are not that big!!! I am 6'2 180lbs... Even with 20-30 more pounds you would be comfortable in the z... What did you drive last? It must of had bench seats... The only other sports car with bigger seats is a mustang for all the American fat rednecks!!

I am 6'4 270lbs and fit fine

Try working with the adjusters. I'm almost the exact same size as you (6'0", 185 lb) and my initial impression was that I HATED the seats. Turns out the problem was how I had the seat cushions adjusted.

My previous car had a very low roof (Toyota Celica) and the rear of the seat cushion was adjustable. I had to run it all the way down and with the seat somewhat reclined to fit in without my head touching the roof. When I got in the 370Z, the first thing I did was crank the rear of the seat cushion all the way down and the front all the way up. The 40 mile drive home from the dealer was in a word miserable. I felt like I was sitting in a hole and my back felt like the support was in all the wrong spots. By the time I got home, I had a serious neckache.

What I later realized is that there is much more headroom in the Z and the shoulder bolsters are much more pronounced than in my Celica. What you need to do is crank down the front seat cushion and then adjust the rear until you feel the shoulder bolsters hitting you in the right spot. Then adjust the front cushion until the seat feels good.

The stock adjustments basically give you the ability to make the seat horribly uncomfortable. I've since taken trips of around two and a half hours in the car and felt great the whole time.
