Well why ask the question then?

None of us really care if you decide to hack up your car to fit some 7x10's in. They've given you an opinion and you're not going to take any notice, so go do it your way.

Thats true.. i'm arguing here for someone that hasn't had barely any input to this topic.. screw this. 'Ol_Mate' thats the best post on this topic i've seen... :laugh:

As for if they fit or not... its going to be a bit of a hack but they will fit.... probably sound pretty good too...

come on guys no need to get all cut here.

i obviously asked because i'm clueless when it comes to audio and never fitted any kind of speakers myself in a car.

but after thinking about it and doing some searching last night on this forum on how to remove the parcel shelf i came a cross a DIY on how to make your own parcel shelf and thought it would be a good idea. i've already removed the rear seat and already have plenty of mdf boards and all the tools i need. plus i got absolutely nothing else to do so yeah...

i appreciate all the opinions given.

cheers

no ones getting cut here man... just take out your seats, take out your shelf, buy some mdf wood and mark the outline of the shelf on the mdf, try with 18mm to make it thicker, cut it out then put it in the car and see if it fits, you might need to cut the shelf your making up just a tad where the window angles down but carpet covers EVERY screw up you make so dont be too fussy.

You will need to cut metal but you'll need the right tool for it so until you have that tool... i cant remember what its called but its something car audio fitters use thats on a 90 degree angle, i wouldn't really attempt it, but if your bored go for gold, once again they will fit so try your best and you will succeed. :ninja:

yeah like i said i already got the mdf and stuff. my dad's an electrical contracter so i've got access to all the tools i might need :ninja:

from what i read its not really hard to do except for the little tricky parts like you said on the window side and its a bit time consuming but i got all the time i need :P

i'm keeping in mind every suggestion given here just incase it doesn't work out so don't think i'm ignoring any opinions in this thread otherwise why would i have started it.

thanks

nah the only concern is cutting the metal everything else is a peice of piss... i made the shelf for my 6x9's in 20mins flat... cut out and carpeted and fit like a cok in a sok.. just worrie bout cutting the metal... where there is a will there is a way... and the 7x10's will fit

Closed.

R33HVN for someone whose been a member for a few weeks you need to adjust your attitude. You wanted him R-SPEC to consult a professional? frx026 & Chris Rogers are, and were providing their input as such.

R-SPEC: if you'd like the thread re-opened if you want to seek more advice or have any more questions, please let me know.

Cheers.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
