[robbluek10]

ok i see so what are good tweeters to go for as i am not really sure

 

[joesouthgate]

i bought some fli (vibe) ones because they were quite cheap! but other people on here will know whats good.

 

[Retepetsir]

You've got coaxials already, why do you need extra tweeters?

 

[joesouthgate]

because i find that the direction makes quite a bit of difference!

 

[joesouthgate]

Grr, i want my cables so I can put this all in now!

[joesouthgate]

Fitted my new in-phase headunit tonight. Much better than my crappy Ministry of sound one, and has ipod, sd card, rear aux, 2 preouts its all good

 

[curtis]

ive got mine in as well now, do you find that sometimes, when its cold or very hot, that the volume turner doesn't do what you want it to do?

If i turn down, it goes up! only happens sometimes though...

 

[joesouthgate]

not had it in long so i'm not sure. did do it once last night i think.

 

[curtis]

yep, i believe that these cd players are made by the same people as the ripspeed ones, as my old one used to do it, also they have the same design etc......

 

[joesouthgate]

loads of cd players have the same interface but i doubt they are all made by the same company

 

[joesouthgate]

loads of cd players have the same interface but i doubt they are all made by the same company

 

[curtis]

nah im pretty sure they are...

the manual is the same
USB port + sd cards are the same type
volume control is the same
Same box it came in, just different name

 

[daveeeeee]

they are all made by the same company. its the way it goes now a days youll pay £20 odd more for a unit thats identical in every way to another just with a different brand name.

 

[joesouthgate]

i'd rather pay a bit more for it not to say ripspeed or MOS on it!

 

[daveeeeee]

lol yeh fair point!

 

[joesouthgate]

And my MOS one had started ####ing up CDs and making the car shock you when you got out :suspect:

 

[joesouthgate]

the futures bright.......the futures stripped!!! ROFL

The future is now Yesterday i took out seats belts etc out of the back and planning to take the carpet out soon. Pics to follow.
Absolutely flies now, can't believe what a difference it makes!

And another pic of my new headunit:

 

[shiftysg]

im confused whats the expansion foam for dont tell me your going to turn it into a boat after you finished track racing
k10 speed boat thats so cooooooooooooooooooollllllllllllll :wasntme:

 

[JStone]

How much did you drop the weight by with that?

 

[joesouthgate]

The expanding foam was where the false floor sat in the back but i've taken that out aswell!

 

[Speedle]

your harness need to be bolted to the rear seat blet mount holes mate, the belt (bit going to the back of the car) needs to be going in a downwards direction to provide the maximum safety.
