How do I find out the boot capacity of my R34 GTT??

I've tried some online searches (ie: google).. But to no avail...

I've got a bet on with my dad whether my boot is bigger or the family car's (E46) 320i boot is bigger...

see how much water you can fill it with. who's ramon btw? sorry to be unhelpful

lol just got back from gym when I wrote that, I had no blood in my brain at the time..

If I filled my boot with water wouldn't all my carpet rot??

Also, the bloody thing would leak... Surely there are specs on it somewhere...

lol i just got back from there too. hence why the title confused me so. im not serious bout the water.

fill each boot with jelly beans- count jelly beans and multiply the individual bean volume by the total amount :ninja:

ah but you underestimate due to space between the beans.

try to find a workshop manual man. best place to look 4 specs

Woohoooo...I got it!

Sedan is 423L and coupes are 316L

Found answer HERE

YOU get jelly beans now! :):):rolleyes:

{Edit} Now to find the boot capacity of an E46 BMW 320i...

:P

Umm, if you got a tape measure and measured it you could do BxHxD to calculate volume...but that doesn't account for the irregular shape...

I'd just accept defeat.

you could do the basic (lxbxh) + simpsons rule for flat area then use the (1/2 base x l x h) to make it into a triangular prism for volume then add together dunno how accurate it would be but it would be better then just lxbxh

    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
