Hi,

I have decided to get a sound system for my r34, and am in need of a few questions to be answered.

I have decided to get a full alpine setup:

INA-W900E (Headunit)

SPX-17 PRO (Front speakers)

SPR-17C (Rear speakers)

PDX-1.1000 (Amp for sub)

PDX-4.150 (Amp for speakers)

The first question is will the front speakers fit into the door without mods, and will the rears fit without mods?

The second is, will having rear speakers have much difference with this setup, or should I just stay with the stock ones?

The third question is should I get one sub or two?

And finally, when I have the aforementioned sub, will I need the two amps mentioned or just run everything on the 4 channel amp?

Thanks guys,

Jacob

having better that stock speakers in the back will deffinately enhance your sound quality.. run all your in car speakers of the 4 channel amp.. you will need a seperate amp for sub(s) as the 4 channel amp wont have the required LPF and you will destroy them.. also one amp will do fine for 2 subs but your best bet is just buy one decent sub an still have boot space.. i made 142Db with one 12' sub and a 800wrms amp.. not running at max levels either

this is something to consider to save some dosh, alpines offer on type x

alpine au

and yes if installed by a pro it will fit, they need mdf mounts to be solid in the doors

a little dynamat type soundeadner would be advised at least in the doors

ditch the stock speakers in all cases

run the 4 channel to the 4 inside

mono block to subs

enjoy

Hi Jacob,

I used to work in the Car Audio Industry, try Ang's Audio Shop in Klemzig http://www.angs.com.au/ . He is an Alpine dealer and will be able to help you out. You should be able to find all of those products in your vehicle. Its also best to get custom MDF baffle made for the speakers in the front rather than the standard plastic ones as you have much clearing mid base as well as improved sealing the speaker enclosure (inner door).

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
