How do I find out the boot capacity of my R34 GTT??

I've tried some online searches (ie: google).. But to no avail...

I've got a bet on with my dad whether my boot is bigger or the family car's (E46) 320i boot is bigger...

see how much water you can fill it with. who's ramon btw? sorry to be unhelpful

lol just got back from gym when I wrote that, I had no blood in my brain at the time..

If I filled my boot with water wouldn't all my carpet rot??

Also, the bloody thing would leak... Surely there are specs on it somewhere...

lol i just got back from there too. hence why the title confused me so. im not serious bout the water.

fill each boot with jelly beans- count jelly beans and multiply the individual bean volume by the total amount :ninja:

ah but you underestimate due to space between the beans.

try to find a workshop manual man. best place to look 4 specs

Woohoooo...I got it!

Sedan is 423L and coupes are 316L

Found answer HERE

YOU get jelly beans now! :):):rolleyes:

{Edit} Now to find the boot capacity of an E46 BMW 320i...

:P

Umm, if you got a tape measure and measured it you could do BxHxD to calculate volume...but that doesn't account for the irregular shape...

I'd just accept defeat.

you could do the basic (lxbxh) + simpsons rule for flat area then use the (1/2 base x l x h) to make it into a triangular prism for volume then add together dunno how accurate it would be but it would be better then just lxbxh

    • Hey guys! Thanks for the feedback!    it’s got some basic mods currently but it’s been tastefully done  has a z32 Maf and a HKS Mushroom filter an old logo nismo strut brace, splitfire coil packs, braided turbo lines, turbo smart boost controller, walbro 450 fuel pump, sports cat and a reinik cat back exhaust, shock works coilovers, Greddy turbo timer, blitz FMIC, blitz BOV, hard race hicas delete, ebc brakes (front), excedy heavy duty clutch, Michelin pilot sport 4 tyres, and the 33 GTR wheels from memory. i have also had my mate 3D print a gas cap holder for inside the petrol flap haha but she’s very clean underneath (being a paint sprayer of 15 years I did not want to mess around with rust!) and she’s had thousands spent on maintenance over the last few years, she drives like a new car!  my future plans is to do an RB30 rebuild with a 25 head uprated turbo etc etc I’m hoping to start this next year, I’ve just opened a premises for my business so that takes priority at the moment! But overall I’m extremely happy with it!    
    • I'm just being rude. The VQ was developed by Nissan Japan, but it comes from the time when Renault were....ruining what Nissan had been before. Just look at a Nissan Tiida, and tell me that you're not looking at a Renault. In fact, just look at a V series Skyline or Z33 etc and tell me that you're not looking at something Frenchified. I just see the VQ an emblematic of that. It is also a nasty sounding thing. I'm really glad I chose to stay RB and not put a VQ30 in when I did my car. As to the RB30 being Aussie.....arguably it's a bit Aussie.
    • That depends, if the French got it from the Japanese, its Japanese. Or, is the rb30 aussie? Also, wouldn't it be Vq for a junior variant? 
    • As soon as the MAFs are replaced with ones that work properly, if the harness isn't ruined it should run perfectly immediately. 
    • If you haven't already decided on a career, look at being a mechanic, engine reconditioning or mechanical engineering. All 3 will give you different views and levels of knowledge (eg, mechanic is general for the whole vehicle, reconditioning will teach you engine specifics, engineer can design stuff). Or.......find something you love doing, hope its a well paying area and pay someone else to build the car for you. After 20 years of mechanicing, I've lost the passion for working on my own car. It may be different if I had access to a hoist, but it is what it is.
