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 might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
