Speaker Sizes For R33 S2

[sydking]

Getting my audio gear sorted out and just double checking a couple things,

The fronts for the r33 are 6.5 to fit right in? and the Backs are what size?

[08r3308]

back are 6 inch you could fit 6.5" as well

[sydking]

anything else i need to know before i start buying my audio equipment?

[08r3308]

buy decent speakers

[Mevo]

Not sure, but when I was checking where is the battery. The top of the battery is pretty close to the speaker ( maybe the battery I have is too tall )

So be careful don't buy deep speaker otherwise it might touch .

^^^ What he said.

Mine did (more due to unsecured speaker) and it dead shorted the battery. I had just come to a stop on a 100km/h highway at a red light. In the Right lane... with no hazards.. no tail lights... no brake lights... at 10.30pm.. Very scary.

i found replacing the stock rear speaker mounts with MDF ones made from 9-12mm MDF raises the speaker enough to clear the battery terminal

[08r3308]

you got 55m of space that will clear battery fine

so most speakers should be within that range i got jbl at back are they are perfect fit and at 55mm deep still leaves space between battery and speaker

hey mate, today i got alpine type r's all round. fitted in doors (i didnt do install, but i assume there were no issues) and teh are 6.5 so you'll be fine

You can even fit 6x9's at the back if your willing to create your own rear parcel shelf from MDF.

get some good 6x9s in the rear, components in the front and a 4 channel amp.

Problem solved.

I'm not really keen on subs for skylines, plus i don't want the added weight.

ill be getting a new headunit and some 6x9s for my 33 soon too so get some pics once you've done it as im keen to see how it goes.

Fusion = Yuck!

I have alpine type S all round 6.5" coaxial in the front and 6x9 in the back run off a 4 channel which sits hidden under the passenger seat ( i like my limited boot space). Had to cut bigger holes in the parcel shelf and mount them on spacers to clear the battery. Finished off the doors with dynamat and dynamat and dynaliner under the rear seats. Sounds awesome for entry level speakers, great well rounded sound when amped and no real need for a sub

Jus to clarify, the mounting depth for the front (without spacers) is 57mm yeah???
