I'm pretty sure you need to cut the parcel tray to fit 6x9's in the back. From my knowledge its a defect to do so, do you have subs in the car? If you do there's no need for 6x9's, get the 6 or 6 1/2" speakers for the back. 6x9's are better for more bass.

had 6x9's in my r33 just had to remove the child restraints and i bought a couple of 6x9 mounts from autobarn it was a tight fit,and u have to make sure the connection is well insulated otherwise it will touch the parcel shelf

I had 6x9s in the rear of my R33 previously, they looked good and sounded great. I no longer need the speaker pods if you are interested let me know: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ra...19#entry4587019

or if you want it done for you like topic says then where are you located?

I still have these so I'm happy to pass them on for $25 the pair. They are sitting around in my way and would love to move them on to somebody that can find them useful. pm me

Don't get pods, they are ugly as.

I can sell you an already made parcel chelf and I can cover it with what ever you like leather, swade, carpet etc.

Basically, once you get the outline correct with the 3 mm MDF, you have to cut the holes in a 45 degree angle to best fit the standard holes.

DO NOT CUT into your parcel shalf.

After that, you go to clark rubber and get some 10mm thick rubber and glue it to the bottom of the 3mm mdf parcel shelf.

This will enable you to raise the speakers so they dont touch your parcel shelf and battery.

Then just fit it all in.

I am located in canberra if you need some help I'd be more than happy to give you a hand.

I've also got a parcel shelf, already cut with the holes and everything to fit an R33 GTS-T (3mm MDF with speaker holes cut out).

Cheers

i dont know why people are coming up with all these ideas of cuttingthinngs custom things etc when all he wants is to mount his 6x9s?

The way i mounted 6x9s in a mates car,

-walked into autobarn bought some spacers which are simple 6x9 little things that match the colour of ur parcel shelf these were around the ~$10 mark for the pair

-Removed the old speakers, a couple screws pretty simple really

-Glued in the spacers to the parcel shelf(I didnt think this was the best idea, but they dont rattle at all and has some serious bass, also hasnt come loose in over a year!) this could probably be screwed in if u can b f*kd

-Screwed the new 6x9s into the freshly glued spacers(which have holes for screws), plugged in the wire that came out of the old speakers (alternative to this is run to an amp you have)

And finished, this may not be the most proffesional way, but it sure as hell beats the $89 he was quoted for less than 15 minutes work!!

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
