OK i know this has been ask a million times, but I just want to compile a list of possible 6x9 speakers that could possibly fit at the rear or an alternative to the 6x9 (e.g. 6 or 6 1/2") that could also fit at the rear that people have used. Please specify brand names and power rating etc...

Thanx :)

dont get 6x9s. your best bet is to get 6" or 6 and 1/2" coax or splits and amp them. and get a sub or two for bass. amping 6x9s or off the head unit will sound shit and just make you angry and disappointed. if you get a sub or amp anything, amp all of your internal speakers, fronts and rears. dont just amp the rears. if you have to amp on only set amp the fronts, never only the rears.

sure you can do it (get 6x9s) but ive seen people do it and then i show them my 6" coax in the rear (parcel shelf), 6" door splits, 2 x 12" subs in boot and they get devistated by it

even without the subs its shitloads better

much clearer, louder, sharper, more bassy and the speakers fang.

my 2 cents

any good car audio place should be able to recommend spakers / subs per car application but i certainly wouldnt recommend amping 6x9s and i dont even sell car audio stuff

amping 6x9s is like having a hks 2530 and standard ecu and fuel maps, yeah it will work and give you a fast spool (stock boost), but your not using the turbo to its full pontential. spend the extra 1000 on a new ecu and it will be 348919795485423154 times better you can then run 17psi thru it and you wont get boost cuts, fuel cuts, spikes or any of that crap. of course your fuel pump wil need to match it

:D

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
