I've reinstalled all my door speakers. i put 160W dual cones in the front and 180W 3-ways in the back, these were all 160cm Pioneers. you need to get special 6" speakers, the ones with extra screw holes slightly further from the center than standard 6"s, and only pioneer and i think jvc do these sort of speakers, but don't hold me to that.

I can take pics if you want, i replaced them all in about 40 minutes.

Cheers, any pics would be appreciated.

sorry peeps I intend to stick some photos up. My stereo install has been done for one week now. But Now it's all pulled out again, so my flat mate can up the ante for the Auckland Autosalon show this weekend. Which means I'm stereo less for about a week. Thank goodness induction noise is so pleasant ;)

When the install is re-instated I'll photo it and post 'em up for the brethren.

As far as the OEM stereo CD attitude is concerned, the dealership that i bought my car from had the stereo disassembled & cleaned, as it's apparently very common for salt crystals to form on the laser lens during shipping from Japan. A decent cleanup with some CO2 spray might be all the stock unit needs to 'sort it'. My factory stereo plays every CD I've thown at it.

ar, that's good to know. MIght try thaqt out and see. I have my stereo that came with the car out on my desk. It's not factory (well I think it's not), it's a panasonic double din. With flap down face to unveil the tape drive, cd in the top. Has a graphic equalizer with multi modes. One mode has the graphic equalizer turn into a little dancing man, one settings makes it into a set of lips that move to the music/lyrics, and yet another is a fighting dude, kung foo fighting. Good old japanese :D Only think it didn't do was play cd's so maybe the lens was crystalised.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
