ok new speakers ordered

jbl gto

628 6 1/2 2 ways coaxial for front

938 6x9 3 waycoaxial for rear.

so the reason for doing this, is the central locking has crapped itself in the drivers door. can still use the key but the central will not lock or unlock.

ford charge 300ish to fix.

the parts to fix it in a rebuild kit as it a very very common thing is 15ish.

so going to do both doors so the other is sorted, and figured I might as well replace the crappy factory speakers whilst the door card off.

the the rears on the ute are easy to get to so why not.

so for the rebuild kit for both doors.

mounting brackets to change from crappy 5x7 front and rear to decent sizes

body loom plugs for the speakers to make it easier to put in.

plus some bonnet struts as mine are shagged..

less than ford to fix one door.

and gives me something to do in an afternoon over Christmas with a beer

and should sound beter too

Will def give a go

Smokin Barry's food van is awesome and much the same food

I told em I wanted something with a lot of meat and no vegetables and they said yes sir, you're our kind of guy

yeah just avoid the prawns with rice, dunno why the wife ordered it, anyone would think prawns and bbq sauce is an odd combo lol

Would recommend some sound deadening pads to stick on the inside of the door skin behind the speakers, if the skins are pretty thin and would like to vibrate when the music is playing.

Made a big difference in the skyline when I did mine.

Cos I don't like labor?

I think he was referring to your post containing words that we all know and love, but just not making any sense due to the order they were placed in.

Starting to get over seeing Liberty Walk doing only expensive cars....

I wanna see some cheap shit get the treatment... like an R32 / c33 or even something crazy cheap like a cressy

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
