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:

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
