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.

    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
