Hi guys,

I just got myself an R33 - and I am loving it!!

I want to install a pair of rear speakers, but am a little confused!

I have attached 2 photos with what the situation looks like back there and there seems to be these 2 black brackets, that (to me) don't appear to be doing anything?

Can you guys let me know what they are for? Could I just remove them to install my speakers?

What else would I need to do to put a pair for 6 inch speakers there?

Thanks!

I'm having the same issue, I would leave them in because it is technically a roadworthy issue. I found out today that not many aftermarket speakers will fit under there......But if you mount the speakers from the boot and screw them in from the boot they will have no clearance issues with child restraints.......what a prick of a place to put them ey......

your ADR rules say 3 baby bolts, funny how in the fark would you fit 3 kids in that car with prams and car seats.. idiot rules even 1 kid would be a tight fit. with my seat all the way back , they would pull my hair out while driving..lol

but if your clever you can mod it to look like they are funtional in a much better spot minus the bracket . just return it to the way it was if you sell it. so you dont get hit with a lawsuit from a child death . disclaimer take this path at your own risk, not responsible for defects or injury from someone using it

funny enough the r31 built in oz had holes for bolts but not the attachment points installed. pure proof how bad they fark with jap imports on compliance.

the monekys that did my car killed my alpine DD speakers and grills with the brackets. on compliance. and then didnt bother hooking the speakers back up since they crushed the cones sideways with brackets. muppets had no farking idea.!!!! alpines went to the bin

    • Hey, guys, I’m hoping I can find answer here. I have already done some searching and asking around but still nothing.    I fitted an IC7 dash in my R32 GTR, and I got everything displaying on the dash except my high beams. I get input voltage and the high beams displaying in the dash when I pull the lever, but not when I fully engage the high beams. I spliced into the Red/Blue Beam+ wire in the black center connector from the cluster, but there is also a black Beam wire I think I need to use as well. The high beams still work. It’s just a matter of getting it to display on the dash.    Has anyone fully wired in their IC7 properly ? I would appreciate any guidance on this.    IMG_8835.mov    
    • I buy my wheel cleaner in 4 litre bottles now. Euro brakes are brutal
    • Sounds like it may all just be some baseless outrage stoked by the carexplore guy? As in the linked social media outrage on facebook just goes back to carexplore as a source again. Further shown by the council response that nothing actually has changed: "The Private Land Use Permit has been part of the Casey Community Local Law for a number of years. It's important to clarify that this permit is not new, and no changes have been made to the permit or the Local Law in relation to the permit." The full council response in Prank's link sounds reasonable to me. Saying that as someone who neither lives there nor has a front yard to call their own  
    • Clutch hydraulics are also all good, looks like a brand new slave cylinder and everything bled up well. No idea what the actual clutch is, and I don't intend to pull the box off on the floor to find out, so unless we have trouble on the dyno or at shakedown that will remain a mystery for the new owner
    • Front brakes are G4 8 pot calipers over 330mm discs with braided lines. Everything looks good, pretty sure these are off my old 350. Pads are brand new and judging from gold colour are Winmax which is what I also run on my race car, Neil and I both sourced brake stuff from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney who really knows his stuff Everything has bled up nicely with all new Motul RBF600 fluid, there were 2 loose hard line connections and the calipers were new on the car so I ended up doing it 3 times but it is perfect now
