Tall people in an Nb
Hey guys, is there someone out there over 6 foot-182cm tall that owns an Nb?. I'm interested in one of them but being 187cm and 90kg I'm a bit worried, have you guys have any trouble fitting in it or something you can live with it.

Might depend on the version of the NB and your proportions. I'm 183cm and 1untwpgh kg and I found the a 1998 NB with leather seats nearly undriveable.
I needed the seat all the way back and even then it was cramped and my left leg was pressed into the steering wheel the whole time. When I tried to drive it with a helmet, I made a dome in the soft top.

I'm only 6 foot but found the steering wheel sat directly between my knees in my NA which was pretty annoying. Fitted a 35mm spacer (which I guess does about the same thing as a dished wheel) and it made such a huge difference to how it feels to sit in the car. I would put spacer or dished wheel at the top of the mod list for taller people.Jesse Pinkman wrote:6 foot 4/5 ish here.. stock NB RS, legs are constantly hitting the steering wheel. so i hae a bucket seat and smaller dished steering wheel so I fit alg now

6'4" here - on my old NB I did - foamectomy, small Momo steering wheel (although never got the airbag removal certed!) and also removed drivers door pocket/handle for my right knee.
Slightly more room in my NA, still did foamectomy and put the Momo wheel in...
