Hey guys, could someone please post a pic of what the boot looks like in a R33.

I'm thinking about one for the other half, its either that or a falcon really. Well maybe a stagea...

Anyway, just a few Q's I have about them. Is the batt in the boot like the coupe? Do the back seats fold down.

Whats the most anyone has towed with one unbraked

An R33 sedan is good, but I doubt it will approach a Falcon for boot (or passenger) space. As mentioned, the seats don't fold down, as the battery is located between the strut towers.

R33 and Stagea rear seat room and leg space is the same, as they share the same chassis and wheelbase, as far as I know...

Having a Stagea is great - used it yesterday to help my sister's boss move all her work stuff from a factory warehouse to her house. Managed to get heaps of stuff moved, if Id have taken photos it would give you an idea of how versatile it is. The back seats fold completely flat, and you can just flip the seats using the silver handles on each side of the boot, instead of having to open the back door on each side and individually fold each seat down.

Unfortunately I don't have photos of the R33 sedan's boot (could probaly get them in a few weeks, tho), but here's some photos to give you an idea of the Stagea boot:

Thanks for the pic of the Stagea. I'm not sure if I'm sold on the stagea, with 4wd and close to 200kg more than an R33...

At the moment she has a Liberty Turbo wagon, which is good as a car, but as soon as you put anything on that tow bar, it strugglees to pull.

Ok, back to the R33, how many golf bags can you fit in the boot :(

Does anyone know if you can use r33 coupe swaybars, rear mufflers, rear strut bars on the sedan?

Also is the TCU part of the ECU in an auto?

decisions, decisions.

The series 2 R33 sedan is the only one to get. The battery is back under the bonnet so there is more usable room in the boot. Everything about the drivetrain is the same as the coupe, the exhaust will also just bolt up but you may find the tip of the exhaust may look a little short as the sedan boot is about 100mm longer. Hope that helps.

    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.    
    • I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
