As above - I've got 3 young kids. 2 are old enough to sit on the booster type seats. One is still in a full car seat setup with anchor point required.

Is it possible to fit them into the back of an R34 sedan? I can do it in my Mazda 3 right now, and the R34 is a good 30cm wider. The only issue is anchor point placement and the raised middle seat....

Hi Bud,

I've got an R34 Sedan, can't say I've ever tried to fit 3 kids in the back though. I've once had a full car of adults and the back is quite squishy for what appears to be a large/long car from the outside.

Depending on how tall the driver and passenger are I think you would be fine fitting in three kids in the back seats. The two back seats on the sides are kind-of bucket seats whereas the middle seat is uncomfortable as it is raised.

Your best bet may be to find an R34 sedan and just check out the back seats yourself to be sure it's what you need. PM me if I can be of any further help or if you got any questions I could answer

cheers,

Steve

TBH i doubt it.

We had the baby seat in ours and because there so wide putting one in the middle just wont work, they will be leaning to the side to fit.

There wide on the outside but tiny inside.

My old stagea was the exact some measurements outside as our new Passat, yet the Passat we can fit 3 adults comfortably across the back seat, not so much the Stagea.

i have a baby seat in the back of mine, fits in the middle fine,

i doubt you would fit 3 baby seats across the back however

but you might fit one baby seat and 2 boosters, we have another on the way and i only have a centre anchor point, gonna have to retro fit the others back in i guess!!

see how we go, the previous owner removed the 2 side ones to put awesome speakers in lolz

i reckon i can drill a hole in the back of the parcel shelf directly above the screw hole for the side ones and get an anchor point in!

It will be tight if possible at all, I've tried two and they fit, but putting a diaper bag in between the seats were tight. I'm looking for a second car just to seat my daughter comfortably in the back.

Hey mate, I'm afraid that'd be pretty tough. For the occasional weekend trip maybe, but I reckon for daily use you can pretty much forget it unfortunately. I also doubt you could physically fit two boosters plus a proper baby seat in at the same time, width wise.

I've got a rear facing baby seat in the back behind the passenger and the front seat is still usable, but only just. I have had 2 adults in the back at the same time but it's definitely a squeeze, and I wouldn't do any long distance travel that way... I'm also not too keen on putting the baby seat in the middle as it would be hard securing it tight enough to avoid sideways movement, due to the raised middle bit.

For normal driving with the missus and the bub the R34 sedan is great though! And the boot's easily big enough for a long weekend away with the family :)

Ps. Forgot to add that mine had 3 anchor points already in place on the parcel shelf, probably done originally for compliance.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
