I need some speakers for the new car. R32 GTST 2 door. Has the stock ones in there atm im thinking, judging by the crap sound coming through.

Ive been given a quote by braddon car stereo to install and they want 400.00 labour not including what speakers i want. Apparently the skyline needs spacers in the front and a rear shelf made up or something.

he said the seat belt something or other goes through the speakers in the rear hence the new shelf needed.

i want 6 inch in the front and rear and nothing special.....was looking at MTX or pioneer......

anyone done it themsleves (thats what i was hoping to do) or know of a good place thats done skylines before.!!!!

cheers.....

bud,

a mate and i re-did mine about two weeks ago,

we discovered that when the speakers where only being held by one screw..

so we just got some rlly thin ply wood and using a jigsaw made our own brackets so the speakers would fit snug, and screwed in with more than one screw haha

we made a template out of cardboard and then put it against the ply wood - worked a treat

what model???

i would not reccommend bdl at all. my mate got some focals in his font doors. expensive speakers...and they didn't put the trim seals back on properly...both speakers had watermarks on them plus crossovers weren't good.

sure they replaced them...but it's the principle yeah?

my pick would be the place in phillip. us guys at work can get cheap systems from the kenwood rep and installed through them. all the installs ive seen come out of there have been really good and ill be going to them to see what they can do about front speakers

i like the DIY approach.

+1

Just set yourself a weekend to get stuck in to it and with a bit of common sense, the right tools and some patience its not that hard... Just time consuming.

You'll save hundreds of dollars if you DIY.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
