anyone have some tips to install splits in an s15, where to mount the tweeters etc? and will 6.5" splits fit straight in the stock mounts?... where should i run the wires for the amp as well?

cheers

put them on the triangle on the inside of the mirror on the doors.

if its the rear, somwhere on the upright sides next to the parcel shelf i rekon

in my S13, i had the tweeters flat on the parcel shelf, yeah they sounded ok. but somtimes lacked the highs as it was all bouncing off the rear glass

yeh forgot to mention, these are in the fronts btw, the stocko clairon cones are doing alright in the back... i was thinking of mounting them in the triangle, thing is i got a apillar boostgauge on one side which might be a bit of a pain

if you can, flush mount them in the doors, sorta 10cm from the top right corner

i have mine there and sound awesome

direct the passanger tweeter to the drivers head, and the driver tweeter to the passangers head

yeh will consider doing that if there are no other options, was hoping not to cut into the doors tho

ahh yeah

i remember now

the factory JDM tweeters are in the black plastic section of the doors, sorta to the front of the opening lever/locking mech.

there is a flat bit of plastic there. might be a good place also

as for the pillar guage, dont worry about it. higher frequencies like that will make it to your ears

I had tweeters mounted in the sail are in my S14 and it was less than perfect as there was too much separation from the mid range mounted in the stock location.
you'd get better imaging if you mounted the tweeter lower down,like just above the door pocket. you should only have to drill a few small holes to secure them and run the wiring through.

Just wondering, does the Aus spec S15 supposed to have holes where the tweeters are for the JDM S15s? Did Nissan just remove it without plugging the holes up or maybe mine used to have it but they took it out?

I actually spoke to Martin (fhrx)? and he said that putting the tweeters there will make the treble more dominant/heaps louder compared to the mid and bass. Then for SQ, we should put it next to the woofer located at the kick panels... Maybe i'll have to put my tweeters up on the top as well coz there r already holes on it....

nah the aussie ones dont have holes for them

neither do the JDM ones that didnt have the option

Thanks Marty,

I might get my front staging done at your shop soon (when i get money ) And also the cabling for the battery coz it's all a mess.

Do you guys have any plastic (clear preferably coz i'd like to show the gold terminals like all of you guys) covers for the Batt terminals? The positive terminal on my car is very close to the metal intercooler piping. I don't wanna see my car burnt down when it accidentally loosens and touches the chassis or piping!
Thanks heaps...

so do the doors accomodate 6.5" splits without modification?

factory JDM ones look like this
