hey, im curious as to what size speakers people have put into their r33's. ive been told that only 6" is all that fits. and by others that 6.5" and 7" fits perfect. ive found some 6.5" splits for the front that i like. but want to know for sure if they'll fit or not first. also what fits in the parcel tray. thanks people!

hey man

i think 6.5" splits will fit in the front. well im guessing they would!!

but in the rear i think you'll have to go with some 6x9's!

but don't take my word for it, could very easily be wrong!! ;)

i got 6" in the front, they fit perfect, cant see why u cant put 6.5" in with little modificatin.

in the back i got 6x9's but i need spacers. i then recarpeted the shelf and make it look like its a moulded parcel. will get pics of shelf if u want but inregards to front shouldn't be a prob.

6" (6.25 on stock mounts) front - 6.75 rear. with custom mounts anything is possible. 6x9s - no no without a LOT of work.

6.5" will fit if you make an MDF ring to sit them on.

6x9s in parcel shelf are easy. did them last week for -R33GTS- All you need is spacers and they sit perfectly.

So you need a MDF spacer to pull the speaker away a bit, is that so it fits in the hole - or so the back of the speaker doesnt hit the inside of the door?

I'm thinking this is what fhrx did here:

yep.

when i did R33GTS's spacers i made a template so i can just make them when ever i need to without having to measure up again. pretty much the same as Fhrx's. i used 6mm MDF and i had no worries.

for the 6x9 spacers, he already had a set in, but 16mm spacers would work a treat if u were to buy pre made ones.

only things with the ones FHRX show is this. pull your door off, note where the tab is on the back. that is the door pocket seal. with the ones pictured that block is gone and anything in the door pocket goes straight into the door. I usually make an exact copy of them that way you dont loose things.

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!

      You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
