The Takata Race 350Z Bucket Seat Package includes a Takata Race LE competition bucket seat with 350Z-specific side mount brackets and a Takata Drift III Snap-On harness. The 350Z (Z33 chassis) was produced from 2002 to 2009 and was the first Z car sold new in the UK since the 280ZX.
The Z33 uses a 3.5-litre aluminium V6 VQ35DE engine. The base DE variant produced 280hp from launch; the HR variant from 2006 revised the intake timing and raised output to 313hp, which neatly splits Z33 ownership between buyers who tuned the earlier DE and those who preferred the revised HR’s broader powerband. The Z33 used bonded and riveted aluminium structures alongside steel in areas where the crash package required it, making it significantly stiffer than a comparable all-steel unibody.
The 350Z has become one of the more common UK drift competition cars in Clubman and Semi-Pro classes, partly because the VQ35 is relatively straightforward to develop beyond 400hp and the platform remains plentiful enough to keep purchase prices realistic.
The Drift III harness in the package is Road and Track approved, not FIA competition legal. Package options: Seat Width (Standard or Excel Width), Sport Seat Position (RHD Driver Side or RHD Passenger Side), Webbing Colour (Black or Green).
For the standalone Race LE: Takata Race LE Competition Bucket Seat.
Packages are assembled to order including the vehicle-specific bracket set; lead time is 4 to 8 weeks from order. If you need the seat for a specific event, drop us an email or click to open a chat and we will confirm the schedule.
