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.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
