R31's are perfect for beginner installers. I put mine in myself (my old car). The head unit goes in perfect, lots of room for 6 inch splits in the front doors, a good spot for the tweeters up the top. Wiring is pretty easy two.

Attached is the location of my front splits.

There is always one sure fire way to avoid wasting money on bad and / or useless components; research and planning!

You’re off to a great start by asking questions and planning your system before throwing wads of hard earned cash at some dodgy salesman. Anyone planning a system needs to know three main things:

1. Budget

2. Music types listened too

3. Cabin size.

Now we know number three, can you shed some light on the other two perchance?

BTW, you’re welcome to browser through the photo galleries on our website for inspiration. :)

      braided lines for the turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Hi all. So one of my major issues at the moment is my rear turbo leaking oil on the exhaust (and the general area). I presumed it was the rock hard super old drain hose, which it was not. So now I am in the midst of removing the rear turbo to get access to the banjo bolt that goes into the turbo oil feed. As one of the previous owners accidentally? tore off the OEM oil feed hardline that reaches behind the turbo, they ran braided lines directly to the turbo, presumably PTFE. Now, regardless if the line has rubber or teflon inside, is it just generally a bad idea to do this? I imagine these lines get quite hot being between the engine, turbo core and exhaust manifold. I suppose it's not too far fetched to think the line may even have melted. I'd love to hear your opinions on this as as the replacement OEM hardline piece is 130 per unit. And cutting open the currently mounted line to see inside will mean I just have to get a replacement either way. So far I am hoping maybe the bolt just loosened or (god forbid) they forgot one of the crush washers.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By WMDC35 · Posted

      If it's a factory 20de manual probably has the 6 bolt flywheel in which case the det clutches won't work as they're 9 bolt.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      All RB push clutches are interchangeable. AFAIK, the 4cyl ones are not. Different flywheels. The RB small box is not identical to the 4cyl boxes. Just very similar.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. I need a new clutch for my gearbox. It is a factory smallbox behind RB20DE NEO. What options do i have? If iam not mistaken the gearbox should be the same as in R32 GTST and Nissan S14/S15? I found some Xtreme Clutch Stage 1 for S14/S14 (i dont know if you know the brand) (UK) OR...is the clutch same as in the bigbox from RB25DET?   Thank you!

      What Music Are You Listening To?

      Listening to an artist called "the flashbulb". Not bad. Makes some fairly well researched youtube vids in various things.
