Ok guys, I couldn't search to see if this has been covered before or not since I was on my iPhone, but this blew my mind......

The rear seats on my c34 stagea are adjustable!!!!!!

Adjustable rear seats = mind blown.

Does anyone on here want to drive my car so I can sit in the rear seats?! :P

This just blew my mind!

That is all, now go on about your day as if nothing has happened....

It's so amazing! It's standard on the c34 as well, but I didn't find out till today. After owning the car for 2 years! I sat in the back and I felt like a butt raped squirrell sitting that straight. So I pulled the lever while sitting and it went back! Boy was I amazed!

well since i got my tire changed yesterday and the dicks there threaded my bolts, my rim decided to say goodbye to my car and rolled away while driving....... so now i dont have rims on the rear. but i get to sit down in my awesome rear seats!

so its all good.

Hang on; you lost a wheel?

Any damage? I'm assuming they're paying to repair?

lost a wheel, but since i was running spacers, which they clearly saw. (as the r34 gtt rims wont clear my suspension due to such a shitty offset)

they threaded the nuts, and 3 of my bolts. so when i was driving the rest kind of undid themselves during my 3 hr drive, and when i hit 70kmh, i heard a rattle then my center cap with all 5 bolts flew out, and my rim incl tire followed........

luckily since i sacked my car and the rim was in the arches, it never fully dislodged, and just hung on by about 1-2mm on the bolts, giving me just enough time to pull over.

i then called them they came down and told me they didnt want to cover me because i had spacers on...... so the guy saw my shredded tire and told me he will be a good fellow and give me a new tyre the next day........ for the low fee of $50... i bought the tire brand new for $85!!!

so i will go there on monday and really turn his neck 180 degrees!

So note to self, never ever go to St George Tires.

Tyre shops and Rattle guns... They never mix.

I specify upfront; that if they use one to tighten the nuts, I will refuse to pay. I make them list it on their work order. I also make them list that there is no damage to the rims; particularly around the wheel nuts. I didn't pay $600 for 2pak paint; only to have some donkey destroy them.

Sounds like you were pretty lucky then; could've been much worse.confused.gif

I thought they were adjuatable. Drove mine to adel from melb on wednesday night after pocking ot up amd remember they looked noce and layed back. Got home and showed the missus around it and pulled the seat down lever. When I pulled the seats back up they looked really straight. Looked everywhere for a button or lever then just resigned it to a lack of sleep. After reading this post, I had another look.. AHHH! There's the lever! Nice amd reclined! Man the japs are on to a lot of things awesome! Love my new stag

    • yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.
    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
