XrSist, you can pick up a 13 inch Focal from as little as $585

So, not as unaffordable as you would expect....

And, I have just decided that all skylines australia members can have 10% discount. How does that grab ya?

ive used about 50 kgs of sound deadining in my 33, I used the tar matting from fusion and heaps of dacron (that fluffly white material that the line the inside of sub boxes with - i think thats its name anyway). As its non turb's :D:mad: (i know i know) weight wasnt really and issue so i spent about 3 days doing the whole interior/boot and all. It ended up costing about $350-$400, but now i see it as money well spent. It took ages, but the difference is incrediable, now i can hear hardly any road noise, and the car is quiet as (except for the exhaust which is f#$king loud - not a bad thing tho).

I got pics of the whole process it you want to see it go to http://members.cardomain.com/crazyfcuk

As for subs, i recommend you listen to either subs from the powerplant or johah lomu series, ive used Fusion gear for 3-4 years now and swear by it. Admittly Fusion gear was pretty average when it first came out but now all there gear rocks.

Id highly recomend it to anybody. and after going through about 9 different setups in my old car using fusion gear. I rate it as high as any other. My new setup (2x 15", 3x1000 watt amps, 2x1 farad amps etc...) runs hard, is crystal clear, and goes all day long.

Anyway just my 2 cents worth hope its some if any use to ya.

:burnout:

Thats one f*&ken sweet setup you got there.. If only i could

weight didn't matter.. 50kg of sound deadener. I assume you

did the doors and roof also?

I've been told FUSION subs are excellent, one company i'm yet

to look up on.

How did you do the bootlid? I've seen very dodgy and excellent

jobs done on this.

im still to finish the top of the boot, so far i used shellys space invader to seal up the gaps, and silicone to stop the boot from vibrating. Im in the process of making a custom molded vinal covered trim plate to fit over the whole of the boot lid at the moment, I am going to include a system diagram in the middle, and might put a set of 6 1/2" co-axils in as well (one either side of the system diagram) for a better sound outside the car for when its at shows etc, and when i take the car away, so i can use it to crank up sounds and still have the car closed. I'm going to try and make a switch (fitted somewhere inside the boot so that i dont have to adjust the headunit every time i want to do it)so that i can turn off all the speakers inside the car, and have only the ones in the boot running, Check back at the site soon and ill post some pics when i finish it.

Yes, there is a 4 model line up, and the bottom of the range has just been replaced by a range called the ACCESS line. The baskets are made of a mix of fibeglass and ABS! Pretty awesome stuff and cheaper too!

i am in Tasmania, but that is no problem a bit of freight will not fix....

I agree with ultim8DTM5, they work alright, but outright the dynamat is far better, and it goes on much neater, and looks better when its finished.

All it does is add extra mass to the existing structure thus dampening out sound vibrations, if your going to use some thing that you want to spray on, id recommend some sort of space invader (i think it works out cheaper as well, but dont quote me). I dont know if you guys have Shellys products over there but if you do try theirs. Its messy as to work with but it does the trick for hard to reach places (in the boot lid in those little gaps between the support and the sheet metal). And achieves the same end result.

      Wanted to buy R200 longnose LSD 3.9 ratio

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By sonicii · Posted

      Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.

      M35 Aftermarket Fuel Pump

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
