Well for now im gonna fix the flexi basket and if i ever have the money i may send it in to be made into an 18... soo here is what i did today. I would like to fix it to the point it wont need a support ring on it so i can put the gasket back on make it look brand new. I dont know how im going to do that because that will be one hell of a weld to get the broken spoke back to the basket.

Well guys, my friend and I spent 9 - 10 hours fixing my baby today. We put on headers and high-flow cats, replaced the water pump, optispark, spark plug wires, and spark plugs, deleted the air pump, and did an oil change. I know I could never show myself around here again if I didn't get pics so here ya go: Some random parts: The headers, cats, and gaskets: Taking the old crap off: Is it just me or does this look a lot like blood? The underside: Another view of the underside: All the old stuff off of the block: Exhaust ports: The new water pump and optispark gaskets installed: That wonderful piss-yellow do hickey: Headers and spark plug wires in place: Bottom …

Here's the start. Already did the front stage, which consisted of Coustic DR 7 inchers and Aura tweets. Didn't snap any pics though; they're just stuck in the stock placement. Built the sub enclosure today. Have to go to the dealership Monday and get the appropriate vinyl dye.

Subs and mids over 5ft tall next to a T square. Infinity 10 not included because of stability issues. RL-i8 not included because its installed in the vehicle RL-i8 not included because its installed in the vehicle. To much ? From top to bottom left to right: Pioneer 5 1/4" coax's, JBL 5 1/4" coax's, Kenwood 5 1/4" coaxs, Pioneer 5 1/4" coax's....all junk Next Audio shallow mount 6.5's, AA Poly 6.5's,DD W6.5's, Sony 6 1/2" coaxs eD e8a.44 JBL Loud and Clear 10's, Infinity Reference 10 Infinity Reference 12, Entasi Audio 12, Funkypup 12, eD 12o.44 12

the woofer: the tweeter: amp: a PAIR of AX TU-300C (photobucket is busted lol) should i use the CAL 25 ALK (metal) or the G (fabric) that comes with the Contour? gotta build some stuff for my doors now!!!

Yeah but i seem to have misplaced my camera....ill look for it tomarrow. Wicked one is almost finished and basically waiting for paint/baffles. These drivers are so beefy im going to have to put the baffles in with the drivers already mounted, good thing is once the enclosrue is bolted down there is no way in hell anyone will be able to steal the drivers without either stealing a 55lb enclosrue with it or completely tearing apart the enclosre.... and all for a pair of $55 drivers...ehhh not really worth it. HU went in easy thanks to a sosche install kit. First time that ive used one and it went perfect w/o any hitches. Wires are ran except for the power wire and i have th…

Well, the car show is over and it was pretty crazy. This is the last year it will be in my hometown, but it was a good last run. I believe somebody said there were over 500 cars in the show, so these pictures aren't even close to being conclusive of the show. These were just a few cars that I liked. I wish I could have gotten a picture of the cars wrapped around the pond but I didn't get a chance to. Anyways, hope you like these pics.

Well, I clayed and Zaino'ed my car this weekend for the car show and took some pics with my dad's d70. I have a few new things since last time. Here you go. I have some big pics if you want some. Photobucket just resized them down a bunch.

Well, after a late night last Wednesday, the system is almost complete. All I have left to do is relocate my battery in the cubbyhole on the side and make a cover for it with the EQ flush mounted inside. Here are a few pictures from the weekend though:

They jacked that logo from X men ! Not bad looking for just protectors AA Poly 6.5 on the left DD W6.5 on the right DD W 6.5 on the left AA Poly 6.5 on the right DD W 6.5 on the left AA Poly 6.5 on the right Phase plug, looks like its part of the cone but its not DD W6.5 weighing in at a whopping 4lbs 15oz AA Poly at a measly 2lbs 1oz AA Poly 6.5 7" basket DD W 6.5 6.5" basket P.S These suckers MOVE...wowza They put the DD's to shame. At higher excursion you get tinsel lead slap, but you have to have them turned up pretty loud. Lower volume's its fine. The reaason being is because whoever designed the terminals is an idiot. They put the + on one side and the - on …

Here are some pics of the '96 Impala SS I've been working on in my spare time for the past couple of weeks. It's nearing completion and I want to see what you guys think. I'm not up to using fiberglass just yet but I think my next install might be a testing ground. Anyway...on to the gear! Alpine CDA-9835 Orion 8004 RE 12.1 LE (the black one!!!!) RE HC 15 (1) Orion P6.2 (2 sets) #1 wire fused at 250A then distributed via #4 to each amp fused with 80A fuse 4" away. All component crossovers are behind the amps in the amp rack along with the fuses and distribution block. Each amp is grounded to the floor of the car with their own wire. #1 for the RE and #4 for the Orion. The…

With this box I did a 145.5 With this one I did a 146.6

battery ran out before i could get any of the 1600.4

rage gold for teh win and fully loaded with everything. barly affected drop any more.

Nothing to see here yet, just starting a place to post crap pics.

This is what I have so far. I should have it done in a day or so. Let me know what you think of it so far.

part of the reason the imp is on pause..lol.. some of the highlites... 2x memphis st1500d 1x memphis st3004 1x audiocontrol epicenter 3x optima yellow tops 4x various screens (2 headrest, 1 in dash and 1 drop down) 2x iraggi alternators 2x memphis 15" mojo's (will be LVS's soon) and some pics.... the 3004, epiccenter and two optimas are in between the seat and box..the truck was still in pieces so i couldn't snag those pics... also, it has apline componets thruout, they came from a previous install. teh alternators are 1 gm delco and 1 ford..lol....neither fit, had to fab brackets thru out....but hey they work!! (iraggi provided the brackets to mount the ford off the fact…

here's some pics of the 1971 impala install i'm working on (in between all the other stuff..lol) first the car... now the box build up. it's bandpass. roughly 2ft^3 sealed and 2.75ft^3 ported, two 2" x 14" ports 11" long. rough bandpass figures are 35hz thru 95hz or so. honestly have no clue, it's for a 15" treo ss, and it's my first bandpass build for anything other then flat out spl. my home away from home... the brace and parts..... and the build up...the sealed part is "stepped" to get the need volume... pretty much finished the box...here's a side shot and a look inside the beast. i'll take some more as the install progresses... yeah, it's alot of pics, but what the …

One hell of an entry level system < $600 in equiptment/waires/everything for hte headunit and < 650 total (enclosure and kick pods). I think i did pretty well for Amanda no? Hifonics 4channel amp comes in tomarrow, well could have come in today but because it was being shipped to her house there was no one there to sign for it so i have to go pick it up tomarrow. these hollywood sound speaks seemed kinda wimpy to me but for $55 they look worthy. Of course weight has little to do with performance, but i like beefy speakers. I had to remind myself they are a set of componets that retail at $175 if you're luckey. Then the sexiest componet amp ive seen to date Fla…

So I toyed around with the idea of getting an outlaw receiver, or one of their preamps or some other pre-amp amp combo and it started to look expensive. So I wound up buying a $3,000 receiver...but I only paid 1,000. Sweet, its upgradable via computer, it does more things that I'll ever figure out, it weighs 60 pounds, has two subwoofer outs, and got good reveiws (like that means anything). It might not do everything as well as components but its likely I just bought plenty of EQ, a decent amp, a preamp, a headphone amp (it has dolby headphone) and lots of buttons and lights. Okay that eliminated the adcom stuff I just bought but I might hold onto the amp to run a sub. …

Dont know where kicken' was but i went with my GF. PRetty good sized crowd. Pretty hihg numbers hit, Bass Race world champ for 140-149.9 was there with his van. Running a wall of MT's and MTX amps. Highest number i saw in qualifying was a 166.x in some blue van running memphis 15's or 18's. i didnt stay for the higher class competitions. I left after Street C. Treo's Demo truck was there, i was like a kid in a candy shop 4 15's, TV's glassed into the doors TV's in the fender wells, above the plate, sexyness. Two chittyest looking cars there was a pair of CRX's one running Street A and one Street B both louder than the winner of Street C one was running a pair of Solo…

During the move to our new house, I came across some of my old pictures that I shot a while back. One set of importance was a summer I spent in Germany. So now that I have all my computer equipment hooked up at once, I decided to finally scan some old shots, hope you like. These first shots are from the worlds largest car museum in Frankfurt. Many of these are the only examples of their kind in existance. All of these were shot with 100 speed film and no flash on a 55mm lense. these last two are later on out side..
