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 can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
