I have some questions regarding the interior of the R32/ R33 interior. First, I have searched to the previous first 10 pages and random sedan builds that I randomly clicked on as the first 10 pages did not help me whatsoever. Here's what I'm interested in:

I'm 6'3"/ 191cm. If I buy a Skyline sedan, will I have any problems sitting in it? I have a '78 Datsun 280z and I can sit in it perfectly, with clearance for my head too and plenty of leg room.

Are the rear seats okay for guests/ passengers? (How do they compare to coupe rear seats too? I read, but don't know how accurate it is, that the rear seats on a coupe are supposedly roomy for even tall people). I've tried looking for pictures of rear seats on sedans but it seems the majority of people neglect to photograph the rear seats in for sale posts, build threads, and youtube videos.

Can some Skyline sedan owners please post photos of the rear seats so I can see? I'm in Brazil now and it's quite difficult to see a Skyline in person...However I will move to Korea in August and that is when I am thinking of purchasing one.

Ok so in 33z tye coups and sedans have the same floorpan and seats (fronts dont flip foreward in the sedan) so the room in a sedan will be the same as a coupe. Im like 5'11.5" and fit fine in my 33z still got a bit of adjustment in the seat but 2 people of the same height will have the seat a bit different. .. rear seats are fine for vertically challanged ppl the rest of us sit sideways (depends on where the front seats are

Rear seats are vasivally the same in coups and sedans . They mount a different and the sedans have an arm rest but for sits their the same

Me too.^

Unless your a 3 or 4yo it's not much use for teens to adults.

as with the coups the rear is best for extended storage space

R32 sedan/coupe for 6'.3" you'll need to recline the back of the seat somewhat. (leb style)

^^ Lol at LebSpec.

Anyhoo, they are pretty roomy in the front. I'm not that tall but have long legs and regularly wear a helmet no worries.

In the back is great... I was in it once ... with a beer... and it was loud. Very loud sitting on an exhaust with the sound deadening removed.

Can't remember caring about the lack of room, due to the noise.

Hope that helps...............

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
