thanks. i'm really no good at these sort of things, my friend bought me some nice JL 6x9's for the rears. i had some boxed 6x9's which came with the car, those carozerria or whatever ones and thought that the new ones would pop in the hole. should've known that the hole size is still for 6". now im wondering if i should get him to exchange the 6x9's for 6". or modify it somehow.

yes same in vic u cannot cut the parcel shelf at all as it is supposedly a main structure in the car which supports the rear windscreen. If u wanna run the risk then do it but i'd just get pods made up from fibreglass, they don't look all that good but i wouldn't run the risk.

P.S. i was also told that you are allowed to cut the parcel shelf but the hole size i do not know and it must be further than 11 cm from the child restraint. (Dunno if thats tru, but thats of no help any way to your cause)

cheers,

Rom.

I had the same problems, but i have 7x10's and every audio shop i took it too refused to even try to install them (all afraid of a little hard work). But i eventually moved the hicas computer and slid them right in, there was about 3mm to spare between the speaker magnet and the battery fastner, but i am here to tell you it can be done

the hicas computer is easy to move.... it just unscrews then you can screw it down again on the base of the shelf.... i have no idea why the people at nissan designed the boot the way they did.... every other part of the car is made with the idea that people will add to it, but the boot just seems inefficient to me, especially the tiny speaker holes and the positioning of vital equipment (hicas and battery) directly benieth the speaker holes, when there are many other places that they could go.

Hi

I added 6 x 9 speakers to my R33 by making up an MDF spacer that went under the standard parcel tray, then traced that onto the underside of the tray, enlarged the ho;es for the stock speakers, and found that with a little careful positioning the standard grilles covered the new speakers.

Voila - stealthy 6 x 9's

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
