I think its just me, but if you have the "gay" facia that isnt 2din, and the panasonic blue door speakers, i wouldnt change them. anything without an amp aftermarket wont sound any good - unless you upgrade to the bose factory system. stock speakers are actually really good!

Oh, he jelly!

I'm actually happy with the standard stuff. Upgrading speakers will be one of the last things I do, and I'll get some decent splits and an amp.

The standard system has splits anyway, unless mine got upgraded in Japan?

standard has splits.

i even went to the extent of buying new speakers, but just never bothered as i was never unhappy with the stock ones.

Is that those Maestro ones you were trying to shift for ages?

Also, where is everyone today? Either they've all got scared off by the aggro full moon stuff that's been going on lately, or people are actually busy at work! Oh no!

Normally a hive of activity during the day.

yeh i got rid of them eventually. its hard to find sellers for speakers as everyone is usually customed to their own brands. I dont think German Maestro is a well known brand, but those who know it, know they are one of the best brands out there. all about upselling lol

your sort of right, but you have names mixed up.

MB Quart - old stuff, hand made in germany. blue prints where then sold to German Maestro. MBQuart company was then taken over by china, and went to shit. MBQuart older stuff is really good, newer stuff is poor.

German Mestro are using the original mbquart bluprint(the good ones) and are producing them. which are good. there was never a bad German Maestro. but you will find some people with biased opinions as there are different brands that are preffered by different people.

the entry level GM stuff i think may get their parts from china. but why would you want entry level :rolleyes:

/csb

hey are you saying i should keep the standard deck and speakers or just the speakers, the problem i have is that the original deck cd player isnt working and yes it is the single din system with splits in the front i dont really want the bose system too much to change.

and ill be happy if you think the standard is good enough i am quite happy with the sound or will i loose that if i change the deck i know they do match the speakers to the deck when they do the initial set up in newer cars.:whistling:

I had a mini disc player in mine, upgraded to a dvd player and left the standard speakers, pretty happy with the end result.

Do you have the TV screen?

you will loose quality if you dont upgrade WITH Amps. my thought anyway. my cd player doesnt work well either, i ended up getting the ipod connection kit and it works fine. all the speakers lol.

my opinion, it was the best $150 i spent. used every time i drive.

You mean if you upgrade speakers and deck?

Mine sounds fine with standard speakers and Clarion deck.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
