How tall are you guys with R33 GTS-T's?


Recommended Posts

I'm 6'4" and I have a sunroof in my R33. Depending on how I style my hair, my hair may or may not touch the roof lining... can be quite irritating at times. So I just lean my seat back a little and no more rub!

It is a tight squeeze though. I am seriously considering getting a lower seat for myself!

Yeah, I am 5' 10/11" and my head comes pretty close to the roof, but I also have a sunroof. I am going down to Queensland raceway in a couple of weeks, never thought about it before, I hope the helmet won't be an issue!

EXACTLY!

Well done hippy!

I quoted mine in feet and inches coz everyone else did... but i HATE the imperial system! So stupid, the metric system makes so much more sense!

How is it better to measure in a system where measurements are based on the size of a kings foot, thumb and god knows what else...

WTF is a yard based on?

Where TF did they pull degrees Farenheit from?

WTF is a mile based on?

It really shits me!

So let me redeem myself by stating that I am 192 - 193 cm tall

A yard is an average man's stride (allegedly).

I think a mile is the distance an average man can run with a burning, rolled-up newspaper sticking out his arse before he suffers 3rd degree burns to his sphincter.

I use metric for everything, except height.......dunno why!

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
