hey just got my fresh import 1998 33 series 2, and they come with cazziaro (something like that) speakers in, but the ones in the rear dont have any bass/midrange at all (and the speakers are 4 way with fairly large cones, shud be pumping some bass and midrange).

so i figured that there was a sub in japan that they ripped out before sending it over here, and splits on the rear speakers. where wud these likely to be? ive taken the headunit out and its nothing obvious in there, would they be in the back somewhere behind the backseats? ive taken the battery cover thing off and cant see anything

any ideas?

im pretty much trying to make do with the jap one before i can get some money to put a real sound system in

yeh ive got an alarm/immobaliser

okay simplified version;

got bigish 4 way speakers in back, however they are only playing high range sounds (no midrange or bass). i assume that they have a high-pass filter/split on them, where would this likely to be located?

thanks

My 34 came with carriozerria or something like that in it too. theyre a series of Pioneer speakers. The headunit that came with mine was the same branding. had like 120ish watt rear 6.5" speakers that had no bass at all but had 140's in the front that actually had a bit of bass and mid so i put them in the back and bought splits for the front. if you got the 120W (might be 125 or 130 not sure) 6.5" then they might be the same as what i got. ill have a look for a model number on them when i get home and a look if theres a high pass or anything.

I notcied the same thing with my R34 rear "3D surround" speakers ahahah

No bass or mid, terrible, they had to go straight away, hopeless things! Standard corolla speakers had more bass!

Dont know if there is any real adjustment in them

ah rite so its new speakers time, shame because they light up when my headlights are on and look awesome :)

Mine arrived like that too.. big Kenwood boxes with lightup bits on it.

The mid and bass drivers were just completely missing, and the unit only had tweeters in it!

Anyway, if there are any passive crossover type magic going on, they could even be just a resistor and/or inductor soldered inline with the speaker wire (usually on the back of the speaker itself, or inside a box.. if it's boxed)

the speakers out of the back of mine are 3way 120w carriozerra's theres no adjustable filters, id be buyin new speakers.

yeh ill take the backseat out this weekend and see wat the go is

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
