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.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.

      By MissMintyR33 · Posted

      Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.

      The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
