I have a pretty hardcore amp (can't remember the brand), 15" MTX sub and two Soundstream Tarantula 6x9's. I don't think I'll be installing them into my wagon. Wouldn't mind getting rid of 'em if you or anyone else are keen?

I've got some focal polyglass speakers you can have for cheap mang

[Harry88]

Nope! Put the money towards a sub+amp instead.

Don't plan on doing a sub to be honest.

Well, you don't drive from the rear set do you?

Fair point

What size speakers actually come in the doors from the factory?

6" in the front and 4" in the back. All made of paper..

Cheers!

I'm gonna assume it would be a piece of cake to swap them out for something a bit better

The rear is really simple, a new pair of 4 inch speakers will screw straight in. The front however it a little more difficult as the speaker is built into the spacer. I just traced around the spacer on some MDF and cut a 6 inch whole in it to mount a 6.5 inch speaker. There is also a template on Rexnet if you get stuck.

Alright doen't sound to hard. Should I use the same wiring that is already there or replace it while im there?

[Cam.]

Same wiring is fine, MDF spacers and some 6.5" focal coaxials for $60

+ I'll give you some terminals to make the job a piece of cake.

[Harry88]

I see what you did there haha

Out of curiosity whats the model number of those focals and they are genuine right?

[Cam.]

Focal 165 CA1

[Harry88]

Mate, I'm tempted at the price. Gonna have a think about it and we might put them in the same time I get my sisters headunit done.

[Harry88]

I know im probably gonna be hated for this but I think I have chose what speakers I will put into the Impreza.

I have always liked sony gear and will be getting these. I got a $100 JB gift voucher for xmas and it 30% off car audio atm.
Also the 6" ones are 300 or 350w. Not 60 like on their website.

Should be fine. Why not use splits in the front doors?

[Harry88]

Didn't really want the hassle of installing new tweeters. Why would I want splits?

[Liberty]

They're not bad and look pretty nice. If you lived closer to my way I could get you them for cheaper. I have a mate that works at JB HiFi.

Splits sound better and you can mount them where your factory ones are.

[Harry88]

So you could install them without using the tweeters that come with them. That small box (I assume its an amplifier of some form) where would you put that?

Cheers, I will keep that in mind if I'm in Sydney and need something
