Let me say it looks like a solid system. The only thing I would be concerned about is the Metra DD kit. It looks really cheap. I would suggest getting the JDM dash kit from a place like grubbs or Riverside Infiniti. Check the 05+ DD kit sticky above. Its made by Nissan so it looks identical to the OEM. Also the access 4 isn't a model number, so I'm assuming he meant a 4" access coax, which won't fit anywhere in the car. You'll need either the 6.5" for the rear, or 6x9's for the rear deck. Either way focal makes access coax's in both these sizes.
Cheers

the 4 inch speakers are in the coupe in behind the front seats. I think the focal K2s MAY be a lil over priced. mine cost me 450 cdn. Course I had a tight link to the shop owner so that may have played a factor.
you're going to notice a HUGE increase in sound quality!
great system though - I agree with the JDM kit though

You could make 4" fit, but the stock rear speaker is definitely a 6.5".
