Hi,

I have recently bought a R32 GTR and it hasn't got any speakers in the front. I have got a set of 6x9 laying around and I was wondering if I could put them in the front doors, without angle grinding the doors or cutting the doors trims.

Cheers any help would be much appreciated

door speakers are round 6.5 inch holes

a 6x9 wont fit comfortably unless you cut the door or just mount the speakers so they stick out.

speakers are cheap, if you have a 32gtr why not just spend $200 for some good speakers that fit nicely.

You can make adapters fairly easy but as above - for the sound you get they arent worth it.

If you really want it done, allow at LEAST $200 to have the adapters made, basic soundproofing, and installation. Main issue is that they will sit out from your door a lot, looking bulky, getting in the road of your feet, and putting stress on your door trim.

i just marked around the original door speaker mounts on my R32 and cut it out with a jig saw.. then mounted the speakers into that.. done that with a few cars now.. incl skyline's silvia's and liberty's

works good.. and the wood surround is good for acoustics of the speaker :D also seals the door more creating a little speaker box in the door.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
