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).

    • The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.
    • According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly. The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.
    • Update 24/01/2025:    Bought a GReddy/Trust Intercooler (crossflow spec-LS) that was meant for a R33 GTST $871 AUD shipped, and a GReddy Profec boost controller $483 AUD, both brand new from Japan. Being honest, I would've thought the intercooler kit was discontinued but I guess not yet. Decided due to funds + time, I'll stick with a nistune on this stock-ish setup ( stock turbo set to probably 10-12psi ) and have it run cleaner ( suspect the 3" turbo back etc has sh*tted on my economy ) for my trip down south soon for the WSBK. Hopefully I can get it all installed and tuned by then. As for who I am getting it tuned with, I will be going with Toshi, (not hearing back from DVS so scratch that). There is also Birrong Auto but not sure if they do nistune installations and if they even tune it... Otherwise, anyone know where I can get my hands on an aluminium intake/suction pipe for an RB25DET NEO?
    • The german cars I've worked on seem to have that issue(in more than just headlights). Mostly where hot, but also just the insulation hardening and cracking in various places. Not abnormal from what ive seen.
    • According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same. Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.   Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.
