Currently I have some 2way 6" front and rear with 12" sub.

The rear left doesnt seem to work (I think it's due to a wiring problem somewhere)

Anyways was contemplating removing the rear speakers or not even connecting them.

What's everyone else think?

Also think I might change the fronts to splits, the Jaycar ones coz I hardly get any treble facing towards me. Thoughts?

Currently using Jaycar 4x100W AMP, a SONY Sub w/ box (which I got for $50 ~2yrs ago from a dude who used it only at his house)

Good idea.

Rears don't really do much apart from providing 'fill' for passengers in the back seat.

If you're looking for a fairly low-budget upgrade for the front, the Jaycar Precision Response splits are v.good value for money @ $149 RRP (link).

If you are looking for product suggestions though Victor, use the 'what to buy' thread above. Cheers! :D

I would rather go a sub in boot + amped splits up front over 6x9s in the car. Some ppl will want 6x9s. Personal preference really.

In my old GTST, the rears were ripped out at compliance. Fronts were amped. In my GTR, the rears are in, run off the deck and the fronts amped. Honestly I can't notice the difference having the rear speakers in. Then again, I don't have any back seat passengers in the car.

Unplug your rear speakers, and drive around for a week. See if there's a noticeable difference. I reckon there won't be much.

there would be a big difference. i guess how notable this is depends on what speakers you have. ive got 6" 'something' speakers upfront and 6x9 infinitys in rear with 12" pheonix gold sub. fronts and 6x9's running off my pioneer 6850 deck which you can adjust almost everything i guess! just do this instead (it'll be easier) on your headunit, not sure if it was fade or balance, but turn the thing all the way to FRONT ONLY. is there a sound difference? now turn it back to zero or watever it was on before. you should notice a difference, but HOW different all depends on the quality of speakers.

Yo Vic,

I dont mind my rear speakers, ive got 6x9s in there just coz i got them for free as you know... i find that even though your ears face forward and what not, the rear speakers kinda "Fill" the car with sound.....

Next time im over have a listen, i think anything in the back is better than nothing, just to create some noise from that general direction...

i reckon, get some component speakers for the front, 2-way won't really cut it :S

get rid of the rears, put the 2 channels of the amp into the fronts, then bridge the other channel into the sub :P put grilles over the speaker holes left by the gap of the rear speakers and let the bass from the sub flow through :)

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win?

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
