Im trying to find room in the back of my R33 series 2 for a sub.

Could i cut into the parcel shelf and put it in between the two speakers? or is the shelf a strengthener for the car? i wouldnt want to cut into anything to make the car less rigid.

Has anyone done this?

Thanks

Do you want to cut into your parcel shelf to save boot space, or to do something different and mount a sub there? I think you'll have problems with enough clearance below the parcel shelf. Don't forget, subs should be in enclosures too, are you planning on using your boot as the "enclosure"?

I once had a mini and i cut a big hole in the middle of the back seat and mounted a 12" in there. Didnt sound that flash.

I'm going to be mounting my sub and amp as below:

you should never cut the parcel shelf!

it does provide support for the struttops and is also illegal.

Thats wot i was thinking! and i jus wanted to kno if that was the case.

But yer its jus to save as much space as possiable

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
