hey all

recently purchased a very sexy R32 GTs-T, with a whole bunch of bits and peices.

but there seems to be a problem.

im 6'5".. and i push the seat back as far as i can yet, im still a little cramped; any way to push the rails back or modify it so i can push teh seat back even further?

and how the hell do you raise the steering wheel? there are two clips under the wheel, one comes out, the other does not?

spanx :(

both the clips come out, just put some grunt into it! one allows reach adjustment (in and out) the other allows rake adjustment (up and down).

at 6'5" sadly it may never be a comfy place to be. :D

Hey buddy, I'm around 6'3-6'4. I feel your pain haha. Bit different from the old commodore I use to own. Saying that I dont find it too bad. Maybe that extra little bit doesnt work in your favour. Let us know if you go through with it. I wouldnt think the seat could go too much further back because when it slides all the way its almost touching the rear seat?

i'm 6"4 and i have it one notch from being fully back, and its pretty comfortable..

(this is without a sunroof though)

Damn, I'm barely 6ft and I still have to cant my head to the left (with sunroof), or recline the seat back and drive with arms fully extended.

I think there are some decent aftermarket seats with this in mind though. Longer rails and lower bases, but I have no idea where I read it. Maybe contact someone like justjap and ask if they have a solution to your needs, or get a 2nd hand seat and see if an upholsterer can customise it for you.

i have actually done the more cheaper option. put the seat as far back on the rail as possible, and recline the backrest even further, as well as putting the seat as far down as possible. very comfy :whistling:

will be looking for aftermarket bucket seats soon though..

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
