ok new speakers ordered

jbl gto

628 6 1/2 2 ways coaxial for front

938 6x9 3 waycoaxial for rear.

so the reason for doing this, is the central locking has crapped itself in the drivers door. can still use the key but the central will not lock or unlock.

ford charge 300ish to fix.

the parts to fix it in a rebuild kit as it a very very common thing is 15ish.

so going to do both doors so the other is sorted, and figured I might as well replace the crappy factory speakers whilst the door card off.

the the rears on the ute are easy to get to so why not.

so for the rebuild kit for both doors.

mounting brackets to change from crappy 5x7 front and rear to decent sizes

body loom plugs for the speakers to make it easier to put in.

plus some bonnet struts as mine are shagged..

less than ford to fix one door.

and gives me something to do in an afternoon over Christmas with a beer

and should sound beter too

Will def give a go

Smokin Barry's food van is awesome and much the same food

I told em I wanted something with a lot of meat and no vegetables and they said yes sir, you're our kind of guy

yeah just avoid the prawns with rice, dunno why the wife ordered it, anyone would think prawns and bbq sauce is an odd combo lol

Would recommend some sound deadening pads to stick on the inside of the door skin behind the speakers, if the skins are pretty thin and would like to vibrate when the music is playing.

Made a big difference in the skyline when I did mine.

Cos I don't like labor?

I think he was referring to your post containing words that we all know and love, but just not making any sense due to the order they were placed in.

Starting to get over seeing Liberty Walk doing only expensive cars....

I wanna see some cheap shit get the treatment... like an R32 / c33 or even something crazy cheap like a cressy

    • I did a skidpan night at SMSP this week, it was much cheaper than $350. But yeah, you need to slap an LSD in that thing.  I put an OS Giken in the 370Z and it's f**king MARVELOUS even compared to Nissan's viscous LSD. So you're saying it's free now that it's a housing estate? 😂
    • Nah, the car seems to run exactly as it did prior, in saying this it does "seem" to be better down low, like more eager to rev, but that may be 100% placebo effect from intake noise But, I'm not worried about it at all, in the end it is a fairly low compression NA engine that has a well shrouded intake,  if it is getting hotter IAT I cannot notice anything negative performance wise from the seat of my pants thrashing it about on the street or sitting in traffic, so meh, car now now makes induction noise so I'm happy
    • Do you have an IAT sensor? It's worth checking it to see. You may be suprised how little gap you actually need to flood your engine with hot air. (I tape up my airbox for a reason) :p
    • @KinkstaahKrinkle paint the "silver" alloy, not the red filter frame Engine bay heat won't be a issue worth worrying about as the silver alloy blocks it off on 3 sides, as for the top, the bonnet seals most of it and the big OEM CAI intake snorkel is still fitted in its original position  I will head into Clark's Rubber when I have some time to grab some pinch weld to tidy up the alloy after I paint it As for performance, I honestly wasn't expecting any, the only reason I got it is because the intake noise sounds cool to my old ears when I'm feeding it the beans Sometimes it's the silly things you do in in life that gives the most fun, and I do love anything that makes cool car noises In other news: I survived 4 nights at sea with Jackie not throwing me over board, holidays are continuing now as we are currently chilling at the Beachcomber in Toukley, after taking the coast roads from Sydney in the MX5, top down all the way, Toukley is where I spent a good deal of my youth holidaying during the summer months, there's lots of reminiscing going on,  and lots of beaches and old houses to visit Next on the list is to head to Batemans Bay for a few days, but we will take the Commodore out to stretch its legs, then Commodore hasn't really moved for months
