Hi,

When i purchased my r34 Gtt Coupe it had a 10" sub in a box taking up all the boot space. I moved the sub to a molded box in the corner of the boot and have been running with that.

Now i am installing water/meth injection i need the boot space for a tank, i also like the idea of loosing the extra weight of a sub and box.

Up front i have 6" splits with tweeter mounted on door trim (unsure of brand/specs, was in car when i bought it)

running through a 4 channel 100wRMS amp.

Now i am removing the sub i know i will need something to add a bit of bass,and 6x9 arn't ideal but i don't want a sub.

These are the Speakers i was looking at for the rear http://www.ryda.com.au/alpine-spr-69-car-speakers which would also be going through the 100wrms amp.

The only other option i see is a small sub (8"?) mounted between the boot space and rear seats firing into the boot.

Input would be appreciated.

underseat sub perhaps, will be better than 6x9 without hacking of the parcel shelf

something like http://www.jaycar.com.au/Sight-%26-Sound-Car/Car-Speakers/Subwoofers/Under-Seat-Active-8-Subwoofer/p/CS2286

doubt those speakers would give you very much bass.

You can get all types and sizes of sub woofers these days, 6" 6.6" 6x9 etc.

You may find a better use of the money would be to buy some good quality front speakers which have separate tweeters and are known for decent quality and bass.

      Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.

      Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).

      There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.

      The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it

      Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
