Exclamation Extend my seat g37

Fellas! Whats up! I'm 6'7 and I own a G. Before this becomes a "you should've just gotten a different car" thread, hear me out first! I love my G!! But the legroom can be a bothersome for me, especially on long trips.

Luckily, theres a company that creates seat brackets for different cars. Infiniti G37 is not on the list though. They do, however, take in requests and will make the brackets for a car by popular demand.

If you guys can go to this link though and just fill out the make and model, INFINITI G37 COUPE, I'd really appreciate that and I'm sure other people would too!

Are there any other people having the same legroom problem?

Why not emulate Hightower -- rip out the front seat and drive from the fear.

I would if I could but all I have to offer in this case is suspect humor.

And now I have a rough idea of your age since you know the reference!

I'd fill it out but I'm of average height and I wouldn't want a company (looks like one tall dude like you had a similar issue and started this company) to use R&D $$ thinking more people were truly interested in buying their product.

Why not try a local welder and see if they can fabricate something or check other companies that make seat brackets to see if they fit your needs or can make one that will?

I added a request on their site!

I'm close to your height and have owned both versions of Infiniti's coupe. The first thing I tweaked with both cars was this seat height modification!

https://g35driver.com/forums/v36-diy/393784-diy-lowering-sport-seat-height.html

Accessing the worm gear (and the under-seat configuration) is slightly different in the G37/Q60 coupe but all the same, modifying the runout bolt lowers the seat a bit. You will slightly tilt and flatten the seat against wiring and HVAC ducting underneath before you ever reach the lowest limit. So keep in mind that you will have to be conscious of how level the seat bottom is staying as you lower it to the lowest-possible point.

As for legroom: I have a 36" inseam. Add shoes and there another inch of leg length—minimum. I've never had any real issue with my leg comfort in either coupe. In fact, how well I fit was a factor in staying in a coupe and getting my second one in 2016. The sport seat thigh extension has been a comfort boost on longer trips. I have my seat back all the way, even with my long arms I'm at the max telescope for the steering wheel and could actually use it a little closer to me now, but I think that's impossible.
