6x9s are in the doors, and 6.5s behind your head... Heads up the depth in the door is really shallow for aftermarket speakers, depending on brand the installer might have to fabricate a bracket to fit em in.

I was looking at installing some aftermarkets, but for what I wanted (6x9s and 6.5s, no sub) the guys at Progressive suggested I change out my head unit with a nice 2 Din to clean up the sounds, and later, if I want I can put a 4 channel to pump up the power to the four speakers. I was told that the factory speakers come with a much smaller magnet which is designed to hit at much broader ranges, compared to aftermarket speakers which are made to hit specific ranges (Highs, mids, lows).

Now this is what I was told at a shop, the salesman/installer was trying to help me out, I was ready to buy the amp and 2 sets of speakers on the spot. But once he understood what I wanted, he did his best to help me out. I am in no way an expert sounds guy, so if anyone else knows a bit more on the subject, by all means please correct me.

no year / model of the Z has 6x9's in the doors, its all 6.5's all around.
I've got 6.5 661's in the door's getting 300x2 at 4 ohms from a RF 600.2(gain turned way down) and a FI Q 10 in the trunk getting 1000x1 at 1 ohm from a Cadence Daytona.

What does your owners manuel say if you have one.

Or you can check the specs out online at the Nissan site. Also try to do a search on this site. There is already a thread on it somewhere in here.

Good luck.
