Thanks Guys,

Is it possible to put Kicker KS600's in front and rear? These speakers are 6". I have one last question is it possible to install them so that you can see the speaker? Like in this picture: http://gallery.viperclub.org/data/500/k2.JPG . Thanks guys.

i just took my 6.5 kicker splits out of the front and put them into the back spacers, no modding needed. replaced the fronts with better splits but same size and had to trim the speaker pods a lil bit. like a 5 min job for both...

Thanks for that guys,

One last question (well I think it's the last anyway :cool:) as I'm not very good with car audio stuff would just like to know if I put Kicker KS600's in front and rear (or maybe the 6x9 version in rear) would I need an amp? Also how do you work out what power amp you would need to provide sufficient power to the speakers?

Sorry for all the questions, Tristan.

i would get an amp on to those KS600s as they are about 65RMS and your headunit only puts out about 12rms lol. waayyy underpowered. a perfect amp for those would be a kicker ZX350.4 which is 4 x 60rms and is perfect to run the KS series speakers. have u already got the 600s? as i would get the KS602's which are the same but in a split and go the KS600s for the rear as they are a 2-way.

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      By sonicii · Posted

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????

      Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
