can somebody please help me?

i need ideas to mount my 6 x 9s on the parcel shelf .

maybe mdf for space and carpet it or something....please help!!!

I got autobarn to do mine. Cost me $130. Made from MDF and carpeted. They mounted the 6"*9" at an angle inwards so they did not have to cut any structural parts. I think it loofs Phat. And I didn'y have to settle for 6.5".

I love my Kenwood speakers!!

$130 bucks was a bit rich but they had to remove the old one and make and install the new and mount and wire the speakers. I am a pretty busy guy so thats the price you pay!!!

here are some pics attached. Hope it helps

Cheers,

J-Flash :rolleyes:

go to advanced and manage attacthments, browse choose ur photo OK, that should upload them, it will tell you if you have done it or not, make sure they are not to big, 100kb is the size limit..

back to the point, I have the same made for my car so I dont have to have ugly spacers, just didnt ever get around to put in carpet or anything over it, i just spray painted it black .. will do it one of these days :headspin:

I managed to install a set of 6x9's in my R32 without cutting the shelf. All I did was make a set of spacers from mdf and modified them a bit to accomodate the irregularities of the parcel shelf. I did have to adapt the 6x9's a bit but nothing major. Took about 2 hours all up and hay presto. 6x9's in the door and int he parcel shelf without cutting a thing.

just letting anyone who wants to know.... i have 7X10's... Kenwood, in the stock parcel shelf.... with no cutting of metal, they fit and dont let anyone tell you any different... there is at least a 1/4 of a mm of room on around the magnets and until i moved the battery about 1mm of clearence over the batter bolts!!!

Hey, how's it going, I have Alpine Type S 6x9's mounted in the back off my car, and all that had to be done was shave a SMALL portion of the metal away ... it depends what 6x9's you buy, some have small magnets, others, like the Type R's have a huge magnet and needs more cutting ... I'll put up photo's soon - well, as soon as I get my damn camera back :

Have to agree with pooski.

I have 6x9's in R33 rear shelf without cutting or MDF. Just needs to be angled right to follow the "D" cutout of the body.

Hey wat type of 6x9's do u have in yours? I'm after pioneers, just not sure if it fits without out cutting any metals (as i heard that it is illegal to do so).

Cheers

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
