Baby in the back?
 

Will a baby seat fit in the back seat of the 7 with the JDM rear seats, or am i forced to go car shopping?

I think it would be smart of you to go car shopping, I personally would feel safer with my kid not being in a sports car and rather something safe. Just my .02

oh no, don't worry... its got a roll cage... heh heh... i know i know... i just bought the damn thing too.

22 years ago my FB was sold for the same reason. took me until last year to make it back to the club...

I'm sure any race shop could fab a set of brackets to mount it over the driveshaft hump and to a race harness brace. it would be the safest spot in the car!

Start shopping bro and enjoy the little one :icon_tup:

babies don't like loud cars. Go car shopping.

make the car seat work........its never to early to mold another rotorhead...

Keep the car, AND go car shopping. Doesn't hurt to have 4 dr beater anyway...

+1,

4 door beaters are awesome (especially an AWD subaru during winter :icon_tup: )

I have the rear seats in my car. I also have a three year old. I have put a car seat in the back and she fits with the passenger seat all the way forward. It is a great way to bring the family to meets. Plus now my daughter wants to take "the fast car" when we go out. In my state, a child, 8 and under has to be in a booster seat, although the seats do fit a child very well with out a car seat. I do not recommend this if the 7 is your family's only car, definitely by a family car that is safe for daily driving your child around.


I will see if I can find a picture. One other advantage of the seats is that you can a lot more storage space. not very much could be fit in those bins.

Nice! I want to see the pictures!

in accidents fd crumble

Don't forget the custom fitted racing helmet for the little tot!!:)

Actually, it looks like its time for the minivan!!

Super77

Yes. They fit. If a Porsche can do it, so can we :) But....

I thought you had a Subie DD. No? I would recomend driving two cars to meets from now on.

LOL, I meet a guy a few years ago with a 93 FD 20b converted , had like 550 hp at 10 psi and he had the JDM rear seats for his wife and a baby seat on the other side.

Nutz .....

What kind of accident though? I don't think the guy would be racing while his child is in the car.

Does a baby seat even fit into the jdm rear seats???

Unfortunately I don't have a pick with the baby seat in the car. I do how ever have a pick with my daughter in the back seat.

Now, I am very careful with her in the car, and no racing what so ever. But she likes the feeling of going fast, already. I have taken her for a ride a few times at WOT, and she loves it. She asks me to do it often but I tell her the police would put me in jail, then she will say, "I don't see any police". Hopefully these are good things for her to be liking. ;) Actually when ever I am working on either FD she has to be right there helping me. She knows what direction to tighten and loosen things, as well as use a screw driver her self. of course I tighten every thing after. She just turned 3 this past September. :)

You encourage me to do this. When I have money I might!

vw jetta decently safe cars and good on gas, and they dont cost much, thats what im in the process of doing right now cuz of the kid on the way

Well, I already have two FD's... One is super raced up, the other is pretty much stock. Just intake exhaust and lowering springs. It makes a great daily driver! We also have a Cx-7, so the wife of course will use that... I had plans to 99 spec the DD and sell it at a later time for what i put into it... even has 105k on the original motor and turbos. runs like a champ!

Take baby for ride
 

I say if its a girl.. make her face backwards.

If it is a boy let him ride in the back and please try to take 270 degree exit ramps a 45mph!

maybe its because i think we should stop having children cuz theres too many people on this planet consuming rx7's!
