Has anyone ever fitted a baby seat into a R32 GTR?

I need to get a rearwards facing babyseat in (for a newborn)

I can fit him in later once he is a little bigger (around 6 months old) and can sit facing forwards... plenty of baby seats will fit then...

But so far I cannot find anything for a newborn that will fit.... can anyone help??

cheers

James

I've had a baby seat fitted since I got the car in August last year

my Daughter (now 5) has been using it.. must say I do get some funny looks with it there :/

and I recon it has saved me from at least one speeding fine...

hehe... I've got a R32 not a R33... you should be able to fit one in a R33... but so far I haven't found one the will fit a 32..

though there was one.... but my wife would end up with the seat in the uppermost position as far forward as the seat will go with her knees wedged into the dash... not the best position to be in if we were ever in an accident situation :/

And, before you even suggest it... No, I won't be selling the 32 and getting a 33 :)

love the 32... can't part with it...

If I can't find a new baby seat I guess I will have to drive the Mrs's family car around.... I guess it's only for 6 months or so...

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
