[armoilers]

Hi all

I'm new to the forum and a new Skyline owner, ive tried looking for some info using the search function but havent got a definite answer.

Can anyone help me confirm definitely what size the rear parcel speakers will fit for a series 2 R33 GTST?

Thanks!

If they are the same size as the Series 1, you should have no dramas fittinf 6 to 6 1/2 inch speakers in the whole. You may need to modify the plastic thingy a little.

Should help.

hi welcom to SAU i hope u hang around. the more the merrier.

well im not 100% but i think its 6" for a direct replacement it might be a idea to pull out the plastic mout to make selecting a speaker easer.

speakers area 6.5" that will net a direct bolt into the rear area and you will have to make a new mount for the fronts. forget modding the stock one.

Thanks all for the advice and help.

Anybody ever tried custom mounting 6x9s in the rear parcel? or is it wishful thinking ...

it can be done i did it but its not a easy job.

ur going to have to re make the parcel shelf out of MDF or put some gay ass spacers.

u will find that the guys that are into there audio think there a wast but each to there own opinion.

how to build a parcel shelf take out the old one place it on top of some MDF trace then check to make sure it matches. then cut with a jigsaw but a little bigger. now with a electric sander or angle grinder shape the wood so it fits good. drill out the holes for speakers and for mounting the shelf. test fit. cover in carpet and i recommend bedding over lay on the under side for a nice fit. now instal and ur done.

note using T nuts and bolts will make ur life a hole lot happier when re fitting stuff after applying the carpet

Rears are typically used for fill - only time you'd use 6x9 in the rear is when you don't have a subwoofer ... Most people want their music to sound like it's coming from in front of them ...

[armoilers]

only considering the 6x9 pathway because im looking to save the little boot space i got without sticking a subwoofer in there

Here is a photo of my 12" sub in the boot. I have lost no space. Just make up a template with cardboard. The sub wouldnt go anywhere else. Then I traced the template onto some MDF then carpeted and put sub in. Also the amp is hidden behind the sub aswell.

That's awesome ducati, did you have to remove the strut to fit the mdf board in?

My sub is just sitting in the boot taking up over 50% of useable space...

Yes I just removed the 2 bolts either side. Its a pain if I have to get to the battery I just carry a shifter to undo the bolts if needed.

thats a very neat sub install mate, may copy that idea with my 10" sub soon
