r32 and r33 drivers room/ how tall are you?

[warpz0r]

hi all

how tall are you and what cars do you drive?

if anyone could measure how far with the seat upright but fully back, how much room there is between the back of the front seat and the front of the back seat?

im 206cm, and i want a skyline... just havent had time to goto a car dealer...

thanks

im 190cm and i have heaps of room im my r33. Just avoid skylines with sunroofs.

Do you have 16cm of headroom?

I remember there was an article in speed where one of the Adelaide basketballers had an R34 GT-R and said that he fit ok, but if I remember the article correctly he had to get the seat modified in his R33.

I have one 200cm friend with a 260Z and he fits in that pretty nicely if you want another option...

well, i can drive a manual nissan micra...

the problem i mostly have is when changing gears my knee hits the steering wheel and i cant put it into 5th gear because my leg is in the way

Im 198cm and fit nicely in my R33.

198 and fit in a R34 fine but with a helmet it's a little hard. Still do-able though.

i gotta lean the seat back at the drags, sux aye

I'm 184, I just fit it my R32 (w/ sunroof). But mind you I sit fairly race style-ish - seat more upright than fully sick...

188 but have all my height in my legs. I've got about an 1 1/2 inches of head room even with my near vertical driving style but by knees are up around the steering wheel. Have to drive without shoes as my workshoes simply don't fit properly in the footwell

I dunno how you 198cm people do it. R32s are smaller I guess

.

im scared now, im 200 odd cms and was thinkn bout gettin a 32

[warpz0r]

yeah, i wanted an r32... i guess ill be looking for a r33 now...

is there any interior dimension differences between gtst and gtr?

i guess the gtr bucket seats would be smaller than the gtst?

[WazR32GTSt]

i'm 191cm and i fit fine in my R32gtst but it has no sunroof...

as for that article in speed, it was a basketballer who had an r34 gtr and he had the seat rails modified i think

cheers,

Waz.

[warpz0r]

can anyone scan this article from speed and upload it somewhere?

I am 185 cm and fit in my R32 without a sunroof fine.

A bit tight with a helmet on, but I put some R33 GTR seats in a while ago and they sit about 4-5cm lower than the GTS seats, so I fit good now with a helmet. I have my seat quite upright too, and still no headroom drama's

Another alternative for R33 owners in seach of headroom is to put some R32 GTSt seats in, I have tried it in a mates car and they give you about 4-5cms more headroom

id go the GT-R seats too. better seats and more room, kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

I'm 176 and I don't have much room in my R32, but I am another who sits pretty upright. I've also got a sunroof.
