Hi,

Looking at buying a GTR R32, 33 can you put a third seat belt in the back and have it engineered as I have three kids. My wife's cousin has a nice GTS-TT worked to the max and it has three belts in the back?

Thanks in advance !

I believe a GTR has the same floor plan as a gtst, so by rights the belt mounts will be the same, the only issue would be getting the correct seat (R32 GTST).

I could fit 3 kids in the back of my 33GTST up until the eldest was about 11, when the kids didnt fit anymore I ripped out the seat and put in a half cage, LOL.

Word off warnining though, unless its engineered they may not be covered by insurace.

GTS-TT :blink:

If you want 3 people in the back yeh, dont look at 2 doors

I said GTS-TT as I said it is heavily modded and runs twin turbos (TT) With RB30 bottom end....Thanks all for the input, Would love a 4 door GTR R33 seen a few at jap auction nice!

Buy a normal car, and have the gts/gtr in the garage to play with, when the time is right.

There not really a car to throw your kids In and go on a holiday anyway!

I have owned an R32 GTS-T and it did have a middle seatbelt installed however the rear seat in an R32 GTS-T is completely different from the R32 GTR. The rear seat in the GTR has two seats which are sunk down a bit to provide a bit of a bucket like shape and then the middle is raised up. It is not really a seat so I can't see that you could ever get a seatbelt back there. I believe the set up of the gear box and drive train in the GTR means that the hump for the driveshaft is larger than a GTS-T.

However as others have said a car like this is really not suitable for 5 people even if many are kids. 2 adults and 2 kids fine, or 3 adults isn't too bad but if you are planning to have a lot of people in the car often then an EVO or something like that would be more suitable.

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
