Hi guys,

Just wondering if anyone has put Alpine SPR-17S 6.5 Inch's in the rear parcel shelf of a r34 sedan. Also where did you mount the tweeters?

Also what else would fit straight in without any mods?

Cheers guys.

I know they not alpine but i have fusion 6 1/2 speakers in the parcel shelf of my car. I almost cut the parcel shelf but in the end i had a bit of 12mm mdf board sitting in the shed and made a custom parcel shelf for it and it looks alot beter that the standered parchel shelf. Ill take sum photos of my setup and post them up for u

even better leave the speakers out, and put twice as good speakers in the front were YOU sit.

i hate having the sound coming from behind me. but thats just me, depends how much u really like your passengers.

agree

the rear speakers are for fill if you want it to sound good ???, unless you run 5.1 dolby you dont need separates out back.R34 are too small inside to need rear speakers in most cases.

I have some 6.5 alpine coax in the rear and separates up front , but if you insist you can fit tweeters under the grills on the rear deck, just be creative and you might need to remove the housings to fit flat under grills.

money better spent on good fronts with proper sealing around and behind them, Dyno mat in doors or similar.

hey,

ive just started doing my 34 with audio (and i bought it 2 weeks ago HAH!)

i've so far got alpine 6" type-r's in the back (had to get new covers for the parcel shelf as the harness mounts FKED mine up...), and the 6.5" type-r's are going in the front when i get a spare weekend to do it :blink: just gotta wait for next pay cheque to buy amps+sub hehehe

x2 n no rear speakers, or at least dont spend big, ive got some pioneer splits in the back (with soundstream fulsh mount tweeters next to the covers, looks cool :D) butttt in saying that ive got it faded about 80-90% to the front for optimum sound. (Got splits in the front too) so unless ur a brand whore dont go spending big amounts on rear speakers that will never be used to their potential, a set of $100 3-ways will do the job just fine.

i've got those alpine ones in the rear of my car.. for fill, but if your going to keep the kenwood ones put the better speakers in the front, cause that's where you will want the better speakers all the time.. and if it comes to getting better speakers like 6.5 splits chuck them in the front and move the alpines to the back!!! :O

i would just keep the better speakers at the front hehe

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
