Hi guys,

I just got myself an R33 - and I am loving it!!

I want to install a pair of rear speakers, but am a little confused!

I have attached 2 photos with what the situation looks like back there and there seems to be these 2 black brackets, that (to me) don't appear to be doing anything?

Can you guys let me know what they are for? Could I just remove them to install my speakers?

What else would I need to do to put a pair for 6 inch speakers there?

Thanks!

Just found out...child restraints or something....grr..ok need to remove them and everything to get some speakers in there :(

I'm having the same issue, I would leave them in because it is technically a roadworthy issue. I found out today that not many aftermarket speakers will fit under there......But if you mount the speakers from the boot and screw them in from the boot they will have no clearance issues with child restraints.......what a prick of a place to put them ey......

your ADR rules say 3 baby bolts, funny how in the fark would you fit 3 kids in that car with prams and car seats.. idiot rules even 1 kid would be a tight fit. with my seat all the way back , they would pull my hair out while driving..lol

but if your clever you can mod it to look like they are funtional in a much better spot minus the bracket . just return it to the way it was if you sell it. so you dont get hit with a lawsuit from a child death . disclaimer take this path at your own risk, not responsible for defects or injury from someone using it

funny enough the r31 built in oz had holes for bolts but not the attachment points installed. pure proof how bad they fark with jap imports on compliance.

the monekys that did my car killed my alpine DD speakers and grills with the brackets. on compliance. and then didnt bother hooking the speakers back up since they crushed the cones sideways with brackets. muppets had no farking idea.!!!! alpines went to the bin

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
