Hi.......

I need to put a baby seat in my R33 GTST, but i am finding it quite difficult to locate an anchor point.

I have been told i will have to have an anchor point engineered and installed.

Does anyone know where the anchor points are located???

Hi, They should of been installed when the car was complianced. There is 3 anchors, 1 centre and 1 in each of the speaker covers. Not sure where you would be able to buy the brackets and plates though.

i had them installed in my car when i first got it, if i can find where i put them i'd gladly give them to you coz i have no need for them.

all they are is two brackets that go across where the factory speakers were, and are fairly difficult to get out, so im assuming they'd be fairly difficult to put back in.

Lismo: I can post up pics of anchors & metal brackets if u want.

As Woolls said, 3 anchor points one in the centre of the rear shelf & two on either side coming out of the speaker grills.

If they're missing then you should at least notice a hole in the middle of the rear shelf where the anchor would've been located. Unless a custom parcel shelf has put in it's place, etc.

Hi POOMBAH,

Would you be able to post up some pics for me please or send them to: [email protected].

Thankyou so much.

Hi JAR,

I would gladly accept them if u can find them.....i will pay for all postage costs....

Thanks.

lismo, definately get the place that originally complied the car to put them in for you.

They are 100% required to be added for compliance but in my experience lots of compliers didnt bother

Hi lismo, hopefully these can be of some help to you

These are the brackets that were screwed directly onto the metal parcel shelf, the brackets fit over the rear speakers

A picture of my rear shelf. U can't see it in that photo, but where the 6x9 speaker covers are there should be in it's place a circular plastic speaker cover with the anchor points coming out from them, hence why the brackets fit over the speakers

Hope these pics give u an idea of what you need. I had to yank out my back seat just to take the parcel shelf cover off, but there's a tutorial in the D.I.Y section on how to remove the rear seat if you're interested.

Cheers :(

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
