I'm going to have my first kid at the end of the year, but I'm never giving up my toy, lol. At least the car seat fits. But there's not too much trunk space with the rear seats folded up.

Realistically, we'll be using my wife's car (mazda3) and I probably won't be driving my car anymore whenever I'm with the fam... :okay:


Speaking of RS growing up, this is a good ongoing parental thread, especially for those expecting their first kid soon and have questions on baby gear.

If you're installing your car seat in the centre you need to install it via seat belt rather than the Lower Anchors. The Lower Anchors are only used for the outboard positions only.

Hard to tell within the picture but you also have to ensure that the child seat doesn't touch the front seats.

OCGStrike - Good stuff.

As a suggestion, given the recent scrutiny of the GR86 post where warranty was denied (likely not applicable to your case) it would be a good idea to blur our your license plate in case ICBC gets involved for any reason.

^i cant see anything OCGstrike posted. no images are showing up. might be the firewall at work.

I see he updated the picture now. It's hosted on imgur.

still the most fun - nothing puts a smile on my face like cranking this thing up after a couple of weeks and going for a blast.

TIL.
Spent some time doing some more research, and yep.. only the side seat anchors are 280mm. So I guess I can't do a center seat config in either of my cars. Good thing I learnt how to set this up properly before the baby arrives, lol. FailFish

You brought both your cars down??

bcrdukes 08-03-2022 05:34 AM

Looks like the Ridge down at Shelton

twitchyzero 08-03-2022 07:00 AM

nah an instructor had a cousin attend who had basically the identical spec

yes it's at ridge..great layout

68style 08-03-2022 07:17 AM

I'm heading to Ridge for the first time Oct 2 looking forward to it

Nice that you guys have access to a covered area in the paddock. At CTMP, it's full blown sun and it gets brutal.

You should be able to install it in the centre still. Just use the seatbelt method instead. The base has a belt path where you can use that for the install. Just make sure to check the manual for the child seat, some belt path installs can be tricky and a lot of them doesn't require you to lock the seat belt (common mistake).

Have to rent for like $100usd I think... all the plebs are out in the sun melting

bcrdukes 08-03-2022 07:48 PM

At least you guys have the option to rent!

So I guess that’s why I booked one and you haven’t :awwyeah:

The iq turns out to be actually shorter than the beat, and it's not in the kei-class! These two cars make parking a breeze in HK sized spaces.

Victoria's such a pretty city.
I was in total awe of this old "residence" of Robert Dunsmuir. Nothing beats old money. The gaudy 20-40mil+ dollar mansions in Vancouver cant hold a candle to how inspiring this castle is

Then you got his son's castle (always trying to upstage the old man)

I'm going there end of the month..time to get my car in there too ;)

Badhobz 08-15-2022 08:12 AM

just be careful of the rent a cops around Hatley castle. They'll shoo you away as soon as you stop the car and threaten you with a ticket
