Well I am now upto the parcel shelf part of my install and I've got a few idea's floating around but just wanted to see what everyone else has done, what works and what doesn't

Since gay compliance people put a massive hole in my standard speaker grille that is now out of the option, would have been nice and easy to tuck a 6.5" speaker under there, would have looked neat and standard as well

I've had the idea to recut a parcel shelf out of some thicker wood, MDF, something around 18mm would be ideal I would say, cut the holes for the speakers and recarpet it with the same colour carpet as the standard shelf. Mount the speakers straight onto the shelf it self and use the speaker grilles provided to make it look neat

Would this work?

Only issue I can think of is the mounting of the parcel shelf, no idea how that would work as the standard one is held in by clips..

Feel free to post any other ideas or pictures of installs you may have

Car is an R33 GTR and speakers are FOCAL 6.5" 165AI

Thanks

haha I will get some tomorrow man

I made 19mm spacers out of MDF and they screw into the same as the factory plastic speaker pods did, cut the parcel shelf out so the speakers poke through a little as they are lager than facotry and will be using the standard speaker covers

Look stock, 6.5" speakers clear the factory shelf.. nice!

Did you cut into the parcel shelf at all?

I got a massive defect from the previous owner cutting space in my parcel shelf to fit 6x9's.

Had to get it fixed and then an Engineer Cert, cost me a pretty penny considering I have 2 holes there now since i haven't replaced the speakers.

Hope you don't have to go through this.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
