Help! replace r33 rear spearkers


Recommended Posts

there should be 2 bolts holding the bottom of the rear seats, undo them then you have to lift it up quite hard.. it should come out. there should be another 2 bolts holding the rear of the seats, undo them. Now take the parcel shelf off gentally as you dont want to snap it. unscrew and replace speakers :D

my parcel shelf was tuff to get off, had those baby seat bolt thingys in it when it was complied. You might have to unbolt these through the boot. There are other clips you need to unscrew through the boot as well.

I couldn't fit 6x9s because the left side speaker touchs the battery.

If you intend to fit a sub, don't bother with the 6x9's.

Personally, i bought a "top of the line" set of Hertz 6" mid bass woofers for the rears, does the job :( (After all it is a performance car and you don't want to weigh it down with subs, etc.. ;) )

Only want to say that you don't have to cut the metal to fit 6x9's. Just have to put them in on an angle to follow the existing "D" shape cutout in the body.

I have put Sony Xplod 6x9's in (these are not particularly slimline or anything). It is fiddly but it can be done.

I posted details of this some months ago. See attachment

Enjoy

Factory R33 S1 speakers are 6.5" all round! . After listening to others on this forum say 6, I went out a bought 6s only to waste 4 hours making brakets to fit them properly :(

And yes, the backseat will need to come out before you can get at the rear speakers.

Do a search in the Car Audio section :uh-huh:

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
