on a budget go FUSION or something of the like, id go with components up front, and stick with 6 1/2" co-axils (2 or 3 way ones) in the rear as opposed to 6x9s as u have to cut into the back tray to fit them unless u put spacers in which look gay. I say keep it stock looking then theres less chance of any f$%kwits trying to steal them.

Go to my page and see what mine look like, looking at them through the window or even from inside they look factory + they go hard as hell and keep up excellently with the 15"s

No offence Crazyfcuk but Fusion splits suck ass. Their subs and amps are ok, but still Fusion is not the best quality stuff out there. Looks great though, and you're obviously happy with your install so that's all that matters.

As for good budget splits, i suggest you look at some Hertz splits. They're FANTASTIC value. Jaycar also have pretty good splits beleive it or not. They're made by the same company that makes Focals i think - or some other really expensive brand - so there you go. Also i suggest you get a amp to run them it'll make them sound alot better. 4x50wrms should be enough - there's a heap of them going around for a cheap price lately. Stay away from Sony & Kenwood. They're OK - but i shall refer to them as Ricers - All show - no go.

Hope that helps you a little. Just have a listen to the splits on a board before you buy. You don't sound like you're too fussed - so perhaps some Pioneers or something will do you. They'll definately be loud if that's what you're after - but as i said. Get a 4x50wrms Amp. It'll make things alot better. A deck says 4x50w but it's actually putting out between 3 and 5w rms which is **** all. Therfore even a cheap 4x50wrms amplifier is a BIG improvement over the decks output

Cheers

dude..  

whats up with the roof racks?? :D

oh and whats that thing on ur windscreen??  

whats it do?

Roof Racks = I go snowboarding everyother day that im not working, and its about a four hour drive. Basically one board doesnt fit in my car and when theres 4 of us going to the mountain, we other wise wouldnt be able to go so I had to get racks. They can be removed, but i dont see any reason to bother as they get used frequently.

Tint strip on the window = i drive to and from work everyday looking into the sun, and my line didnt come with any thing on the top part of the window to stop sunstrike (like the blue strip that is built into most windows) so when i got the rest of my car tinted i asked them to do that as well, and viola no more problems.

I agree with ya on the fact that fusion stuff is not the best quality stuff, having blown up 9 12" USA spec Fusion subs, 5 fpx1000 amps, and 2 15" powerplant subs, and a cooked cap. Not to mention a headunit that i fried in my boat (ity seems that headunits dont like salt water???), I can say that pretty honestly.

But I have had everysingle product that i have either cooked or fried replaced with a brand new one, and as far as im concerned i dont really give a f**k about the fact that they have all blown as ive got replacements everytime. I brought one of the first subs and amps that fusion ever sold worldwide, and YES they were s**t but the gear has come along leaps in bounds in the last year or so since they have released there new range of products.

But for the price that you are paying for them, they will keep up with anything else on the market. I know that focal and all the rest of them probably sound slightly better but for the extra $500 odd dollars that id be paying for them id certainly hope that they would.

Also the majority of the cars running in the car audio circuit in NZ use Fusion gear not only the SPL ones but also the SQ cars as well, including the 3 loudest cars in NZ. (MAD SOUNDZ CARS)

Ive been hit by the fusion bug i guess, kinda like most of us with skylines, once youve had a taste of it, its all you ever want.

Fusion have looked after me extremly well and i will continue to use there stuff for the forseeable future, well at least until i win lotto anyway.

but yea no offence taken as i know that there is better stuff out there, but I like it and it sound/looks as good as i could ever want.

    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.
    • Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.
    • Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..
    • You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.
    • Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".
