to my knowledge you won't be able to remove the rear shelf as it's welded in the body. It's a structural thing.

If you really must have rear speakers the way I got to mine was by removing the rear seats, after that everything was removed without issue.

Actually Nathan the rear shelf comes out on its own. It's just masonite covered in fabric. Found all this out during window tinting.

As for getting it out? As Nathan said, rear seats out, and go from there. Afaik you need to remove the rear wiper, but the manual will reveal all secrets. :)

Piece of piss...

2 Clips on the bottom front of the Rear seat... unclip and remove the bottom section.. there are 2 10mil bolts holding the bottom of the upper part of the seat... undoo them and pull the seat up towards the rear windscreen... and out of the car. Rear parcell shelf if helt in by clips... you will have to remove the Plactic cover around the Wiper and ulclip the shelf and it comes out.

Good luck getting 6X9's in there.

I just fitted a pair of Pioneer 6" 3-ways and that's pretty much it, but I didn't have to remove the plastic wiper cover on my R32 GTR it just came away with the shelf cover as did the standard speaker covers. To get the bottom part of the seat out you just pull up hard at the front on each side to release the clips.

The speakers I bought bolted straight into the existing speaker holes using the hardware supplied with the speakers...a very easy job.

It would be difficult to fit 6x9's without hacking the metal shelf...not recommended. But one way around that problem would be to get a pair of plastic speaker spacers that would screw to the shelf trim in place of the origonal speaker grills (these just unscrew on a GTR). Jaycar sell these:

    • On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.
    • So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.
    • This seems like a pointless exercise. There is no E30 availability. Ongoing availability of E85 should not be assumed. Flex-fuel is the only sensible approach, so you can use E85 when and where you can get it, 98 when that's al you can get, and anything in between as you fill it up and drain it down. And if that means replacing the pumps, fitting a flex capable sensor/ECU/whatever has to be done to these Renault shitboxen, then.....so be it?
    • Sorry, I wasn't very clear.....just that the standard injectors are apparently good over 600rwhp/450rwkw which you won't get to on standard turbos anyway.....they are much better sized from factory than we are used to in RBs.
    • I'm not sure where you are, but United Terrey Hills has E85.
