Surfboard?

[i want a skyline]

Hey fellas,

As my username suggests, I am in the market for a Skyline, looking to purchase one around February next year but I'm researching as much as possible before I fork out for one.

Now I'm a surfer, and I was wondering if:

1. The back seats fold down in an R32?

2. If you can fit a surfboard - say up to 6'5" inside (by sticking it through the boot and the open back seats into the cabin)?

Cheers.

The back seats dont fold down, so I dont think you'll have much luck fitting your board in. Perhaps start looking for a 4 door or even better a stagea.

Cheers,

Mick

Yeah, get a Stagea... nice, will fit your board and a mattress!!!

Or just get some old rusty roof racks and bolt 'em to the roof of the R32... that would look sweet NOT!!! :lol:

Create some custom brackets and a latch so that the seats fold down..

The only way i can fit my surfboard in my r32 is by folding the front passenger seat all the way back and putting my board on the seat.

Its pretty crap when I take a mate surfing, they have to sit behind me in the back seat, as the boards take up the rest of the room. Might have to get some of those removable roof racks.

Yeah man!

Go to any local surfshop and they should sell Strap on Racks. Cost about $40 the only thing if you get a 2 door the racks won't be very far apart but that does not matter cause they tie down tight. I bought a set of double racks for $70 so I can fit 6 boards on the roof easily. This will be your best option.

By the way, any waves ATM?

i have a 32 as well ... the way i do it is to put the passenger seat down, then put the board in on an angle with the nose of the board sticking out the window. and yeah if you have a mate with you he has to sit behind you with the boards on top of him. it's do-able though.
