Thought I might try my hand in the SA section, seeing as there are a few other 32's for sale in here.

Baby Luka was born last week, and his capsule wont fit into the 32, so we are looking for something larger with 2 extra doors. But the 32 must sell first.

If anybody here is interested, or knows of somebody looking for a unique skyline, point them in this direction.

First up Congrats.. Enjoy it while they sleep, eat and poo.

They soon become very demanding, we have found the most stressfull period was just before the bubs begins to crawl. They want to get around but can't so they wiggle, squirm and scream. :S

Be sure to set a routine of getting him in to the cot, we made the mistake of letting our little Jordan in our bed when he began teething. Now we are finding it extremely difficult to get him out lol. :mellow:

Having little Jordan is the best thing thats happened to Julie and myself.

Its awesome when he wakes up, smiles, gives cuddles and kisses.

Such a funny little boy.. ;)

The Safe and Sound Compaq fits the R32 well, the only downside compared to the larger seats is you have to spin it around at roughly 9kg's, other safe and sound baby seats you can go up to ~12kg. Not that it poses a problem, 9kg's is damn heavy to slide a baby in to a capsule. :(

Its an awesome seat, nice and soft.

The usual safe n' sound capsule's you can hire don't fit the R32 at all.

It will be difficult to sell as R33's are pretty much around the asking price, ppls do prefer the R33 look. Unfortunately. :(

Believe it or not I found the 2 door easier to slide the baby in and out of the seat in the capsule position.

Fitting the seat up to a usual 4 door where you have to lift the baby over the straps that run to the baby anchor is a real pain in the back. :mellow:

In the 2 door you slide him in from the front. :(

Now the seat is positioned upright its located in the center.

We actually did have a casual agreement to trade the blue 32 on a 1997-98 Stagea 25tX (the up-spec!!).... seems to have fallen through however.

I now think I have convinced Melissa on the beautiful world of LS1 power, and the boot space that comes with :P

Congratulations Mel and Pawley on the birth of little Luka :( If it were possible I'd give you 8hrs straight solid sleep as a late Xmas present... I know you'd LOVE IT!

About the only negative I can see by switching to LS1 power would be the "possible" extra fuel costs... depends on the right foot :D

Did you consider a WRX Wagon, or even a Forester XT? Subaru reliability, excellent load carrying and easy on Mel's back to put Luka in his seat, reasonable grunt and excellent grip wet or dry - nice and safe for Mum and Luka. Finding a good one for the right price would be the hard part.

      S15 Spec R

      Update time!  The JZX110 had some maintenance needing to be done, so a lot of the seals with replaced to fix some oil leaks. Also used this opportunity to whack on a front mount that I'd bought some time ago.  I also finally got the rear lip painted and fitted.  I then got the exhaust done. It's just a catback for now. Custom made 3" stainless with a turn down. I could have a tip coming out, but it will require cutting the rear lip and possibly the bumper itself. So far I do like and it's made the car a little more zippy.  Close out with some nice pictures of the cars and a sneak peek of what's next.

      This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?

      Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
