Not much,

Still capable of sitting ppl at the back but depending how tall they are.

Well it's better then a Supra or RX7 back seat.

I have sat in the back seats of all 3 of them and the Skyline still better for leg room.

Hey everyone, I'm new here, although I have always loved the skylines. Just wondering how much leg room in the back seats of these cars (R32, 33 and 34 models). If anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks. :P

In scientific terms - none, almost none, and a little.

The 34 coupe (GT-T/GT-R) is capable of holding a passenger and driver comfortably (im 6ft) and fit comfortably although when switching from my dad's Mitsubish Magna or my other car (Holden Commodore) i tend to notice a big difference and feel confined in the 34.

Although over time you get used to that feeling (give or take a couple of weeks) and you begin to like it...going back to the bigger cars makes you wonder what all the rest of the room is really for? :(

But if you have several passengers the 34 is horrible...i have taken a full car (5 people) and i will never do it again (in fact i never take anyone in the back at all), all the boys were over 6ft and it was just pure shit....not to mention the performance of the RB25DE declined immensley since it is a non turbo and could not cope with the extra weight.

From what i know the R33 has alot more leg room (well it feels so) and the 4 Door 34 has more room obviously since it has those extra doors. the 32 is like the 34 in terms of interior space.

Best room would be a 4 door version of any of the skylines or a 33 coupe model if your looking at 2 doors. Anyhow hope that helps out a bit...

Edit: Didn't read your thread with the rear leg room just assumed by the topic name. I would not get a 34 for the rear leg room!!!!! its terrible..you can fit a asian midget (or a baby) if your lucky fairly well....thats about it...

had an r33 then an r34, friend had an r32

r33 coupe definitely has the most rear legroom out of the three...

but that's like saying getting punched in the nuts only slightly less painful as getting kicked.

Yeah um the back seat of the R32 is good if you happen to be carting around Asian school girls, for everyone else, its EXTREMELY cramped (even in mine with GT-R seats).

In a R33, I could move my legs at least, but my head was still hitting the rear window (I'm 180cm), on the plus side, with 3 of us in there, we could go around corners without me spilling my beer :(

In terms of front seats, both have acres of room unless you happen to be a very fat person.

HR31 rear seat is somewhere in between a R32 and R33 for leg and body room.

HR31 4 door was reasonably comfy as long as I had my knees on either side of the driver seat when sitting behind it lol.

I try to strenuously avoid having back seat passengers in mine, its usually used to hold my CD wallet, random tools, bits of pipe, my club lock, hitchhiking spiders etc.

I found it fine, its got more leg room behind compared to my dad's Mazda ute & my friends 180sx (man that car has like no room in the back...).

But its tiny compared to ur family cars like camry & commodores etc etc.

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
