Driver height
I was just curious, I'm likely gonna end up buying an s13 or (hopefully) an s14, and I was wondering how comfortable would I be in the drivers seat? I stand at a slender 6 foot 3. It would really suck *** if I would be too tall to drive comfortably.

You should be good to go, I'm only 6foot and still have like 3 or more clicks left that I can push my seat back on, and if you don't like the stock seating, get a racing seat and bracket set and put the seat where you want it.

I am 6'4", and have an s13 coupe with sunroof and have no problem with headroom clearance. The steering wheel tilts up and the seat back reclines just enough to make it comfortable for those of us vertically enhanced individuals.

If your worried about head room find a car with out a sunroof. That should add like an inch. BTW S14's have more room than S13's for both leg room and head room.

I'm 6'1" and i like to side very straight up when i drive. I have my seat one click on the recline lever from all the way up and i barely brush the roof. legroom is not a problem at all.

um, why would a car with a sunroof take away headroom? if anything, my sunroof adds a little.

WTF?
You guys must have no legs.
I drove my friends s14 96 240sx
and even though the steering wheel tilts up i still didn't have enough leg room to heel-toe. i already know when i get my s13 i will need to reposition the sits just for that fact. i can't touge race without being able to heel-toe.
Yeah i am 6-5. and lots of leg. but yeah head clearance isn't that bothersome.

How are you gonna fit in an S13 if you have trouble with a S14?

"reposition the seats"
i don't care about drifting yet, i want to learn to grip in an fr, since i am use to an ff layout. and i should be able to practice rev matching for a lil bit until i adjust the seats. i fit fine for regular driving just not enough leg room for heel-toe.
