Ok guys, I couldn't search to see if this has been covered before or not since I was on my iPhone, but this blew my mind......

The rear seats on my c34 stagea are adjustable!!!!!!

Adjustable rear seats = mind blown.

Does anyone on here want to drive my car so I can sit in the rear seats?! :P

This just blew my mind!

That is all, now go on about your day as if nothing has happened....

It's so amazing! It's standard on the c34 as well, but I didn't find out till today. After owning the car for 2 years! I sat in the back and I felt like a butt raped squirrell sitting that straight. So I pulled the lever while sitting and it went back! Boy was I amazed!

well since i got my tire changed yesterday and the dicks there threaded my bolts, my rim decided to say goodbye to my car and rolled away while driving....... so now i dont have rims on the rear. but i get to sit down in my awesome rear seats!

so its all good.

Hang on; you lost a wheel?

Any damage? I'm assuming they're paying to repair?

lost a wheel, but since i was running spacers, which they clearly saw. (as the r34 gtt rims wont clear my suspension due to such a shitty offset)

they threaded the nuts, and 3 of my bolts. so when i was driving the rest kind of undid themselves during my 3 hr drive, and when i hit 70kmh, i heard a rattle then my center cap with all 5 bolts flew out, and my rim incl tire followed........

luckily since i sacked my car and the rim was in the arches, it never fully dislodged, and just hung on by about 1-2mm on the bolts, giving me just enough time to pull over.

i then called them they came down and told me they didnt want to cover me because i had spacers on...... so the guy saw my shredded tire and told me he will be a good fellow and give me a new tyre the next day........ for the low fee of $50... i bought the tire brand new for $85!!!

so i will go there on monday and really turn his neck 180 degrees!

So note to self, never ever go to St George Tires.

Tyre shops and Rattle guns... They never mix.

I specify upfront; that if they use one to tighten the nuts, I will refuse to pay. I make them list it on their work order. I also make them list that there is no damage to the rims; particularly around the wheel nuts. I didn't pay $600 for 2pak paint; only to have some donkey destroy them.

Sounds like you were pretty lucky then; could've been much worse.confused.gif

I thought they were adjuatable. Drove mine to adel from melb on wednesday night after pocking ot up amd remember they looked noce and layed back. Got home and showed the missus around it and pulled the seat down lever. When I pulled the seats back up they looked really straight. Looked everywhere for a button or lever then just resigned it to a lack of sleep. After reading this post, I had another look.. AHHH! There's the lever! Nice amd reclined! Man the japs are on to a lot of things awesome! Love my new stag

    • There are black hose clamps as well if you care. Plazmaman for example sells some: https://plazmaman.com/product/black-hose-clamps-premium-quality-stainless-breeze/
    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
