hey, im curious as to what size speakers people have put into their r33's. ive been told that only 6" is all that fits. and by others that 6.5" and 7" fits perfect. ive found some 6.5" splits for the front that i like. but want to know for sure if they'll fit or not first. also what fits in the parcel tray. thanks people!

hey man

i think 6.5" splits will fit in the front. well im guessing they would!!

but in the rear i think you'll have to go with some 6x9's!

but don't take my word for it, could very easily be wrong!! ;)

i got 6" in the front, they fit perfect, cant see why u cant put 6.5" in with little modificatin.

in the back i got 6x9's but i need spacers. i then recarpeted the shelf and make it look like its a moulded parcel. will get pics of shelf if u want but inregards to front shouldn't be a prob.

6" (6.25 on stock mounts) front - 6.75 rear. with custom mounts anything is possible. 6x9s - no no without a LOT of work.

6.5" will fit if you make an MDF ring to sit them on.

6x9s in parcel shelf are easy. did them last week for -R33GTS- All you need is spacers and they sit perfectly.

So you need a MDF spacer to pull the speaker away a bit, is that so it fits in the hole - or so the back of the speaker doesnt hit the inside of the door?

I'm thinking this is what fhrx did here:

yep.

when i did R33GTS's spacers i made a template so i can just make them when ever i need to without having to measure up again. pretty much the same as Fhrx's. i used 6mm MDF and i had no worries.

for the 6x9 spacers, he already had a set in, but 16mm spacers would work a treat if u were to buy pre made ones.

only things with the ones FHRX show is this. pull your door off, note where the tab is on the back. that is the door pocket seal. with the ones pictured that block is gone and anything in the door pocket goes straight into the door. I usually make an exact copy of them that way you dont loose things.

    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all. 
    • Ah yep. I asked a auto electrician about getting a cheap rebuilt alternator vs a new one. He also said he used to it back in the day but it ended up costing similar to what a new one would and recommended getting a new one,.
    • Ah, to clarify if the car has already been tuned and has been modified and you want to go from a oem cat to a 100 cell or decat or vice versa.Are you saying that the car doesn't need to be tuned after a cat change if it's already been tuned?
    • This has been covered a bazillion times but google wet boiling point vs dry. Motul is only good when it's fresh, once it absorbs moisture it gets pretty average very quickly. So as above, make sure you change it if you're going racing. I run the Endless brake fluid in mind, but only because a mate is a distributor and it's cheap. It's not quite as good as SRF but I'm running 380mm rotors on a Skyline so it's not like they get hot.
