Hey Guys,

As the topic says, we've got our 1st bub arriving very soon...and yes the R34 sedan will no doubt be more of a taxi now! (trying not to trade it in for a SUV).

Need some advise from all those parents out there who had manage to fit a baby capsule in the centre back sit of their R34s.

- How many anchorage point do i need? currently has 2 on the speak shelf, do i need one on the floor?

- Which brand of baby capsule fits best or u recommend?

- With the new regulations and all, any other handy tips would also help. :thanks:

Thanks in advance!

:cheers:

Hey, You only need the 2 of the speaker, just double check to make sure they are secure and not lose.

I've had my niece and nephew in both my r33 and my r32 gtr without a problem.

Also best to go a big baby shop and they should allow you to test fit the baby seat in the car it make sure it will fit without an issue but im pretty sure all should fit

Yep, just the two on the parcel shelf, and then the standard seat belt goes through the back of the capsule.

As mentioned above, check how the anchor points have been fitted, as they are generally fitted during compliance, and alot of places do a really bodgy job of it.

Best of luck with the new bub :thumbsup:

cheers guys thanks for the replies.

we've bought one of those steelcraft travel system with the transferable baby capsule to the pram. Only just fits in the centre back seat with a 1mm to spare but had to move both the back rest on both front sit though. Plus there is actually a centre anchor point in the back.

so all is good i hope... :cheers:

p.s. boostin the car as much as i could before bub gets in (no more boostin then... :( )

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.

      Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder

      Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
