That is one great thing about Texas. When winter comes electric bills are tiny because you can normally just leave the windows open. If it's cold you can cook chili and bake some corn bread and that will likely provide enough heat. At night a big war comforter is sufficient. Texas here I come !

EBC Yellow. As far as my research goes, the Reds have poor cold braking performance, they are a track oriented pad. Yellows are better all around. Yellows will squeal for ~500 miles (that's what reports say) and they are dusty.

That's my next PC purchase

I live next to amish country in the middle of the sticks and they are good at making pretzels and bake goods. That's what I like about growing up where I did. We have some amish around and they are GREAT people to know. Usually super kind and friendly..........just a lil weird when you see one of their actually attractive females. J Tell her you have a rumshpringer in your pants and she is invited. Granted this guy is probably Mennonite, still fucking hilarious. I have a straw hat just like that

I have to write that distro name down. It sounds pretty cool

Did you get a new toothbrush? I got on the pre-order for some b-stock toothbrushes

What the hell is it with unboxing videos ? What's so interesting ?

Spent the last two days installing the EGT gauge on the A-pillar. I never imagined it will take so long... Build fiberglass rings to hold the gauge, move oil temp gauge to a different spot, 'glass over both gauges, extend wires, trim a-pillar.

Mine's bigger If only I could find the picture...

Ideal my arse, they are some crappy Audiobahns. No swaying him around on the driver choice Complete crap is under the beauty panels, sadly. The owner and I worked about an hour to shim the box around so the beauty panel fits over the subs. It's not my work, otherwise things would be different. As for midbass, there are 4 6.5's in each of the back side panels and 4 on each door. One tweeter per 4 6.5's. He wanted way more tweeters but I talked him out of it (luckily). Midbass is actually "ok". Basically I'm trying to band-aid it as much as possible without cosmetic or equipment changes. Math on space available coming up tomorrow. Again, the 4th order will rely on having the trunk closed and sealing off the cosmetic panel as good as possible. So it's not going to be sealed ideally. The beauty panel is thick fiberglass.

Elmer's white glue wtf ?

Don't believe it comes with glue. Generally CA glue (with accelerator) is used, should be able to find some at a hobby shop. Some people also use high strength epoxy. But I honestly don't know enough about adhesives to tell you if one is better than the other, beside epoxy being much easier to come by. I use 5 minute clear epoxy. Did 5 recones, 4 of which went in SPL setups, all is well

I haven't worked out the math yet...

I've discussed that with the owner but it's a no-go I forgot to mention that the box will house 2 10's.

It seems like I need to build a new box for the BMW cabrio install I fixed. The car currently has a shitty ported box, which fires towards the back in a "tub" formed by a cosmetic fiberglass panel. Port fires to the front, into the ski port. Sub orientation has to stay as it is now, I don't want to build that cosmetic fiberglass panel. The main goal is to have a loud'ish sounding setup when the hardtop is off, trunk open and closed and something that can put up a half-decent score with the hardtop on. My first idea was to seal up the sub against the cosmetic FG panel as good as I can, use that as the sealed chamber of a bandpass box and have the ported chamber fire through the ski-port with the biggest port I can fit and the biggest volume I can fit. Chose a higher pass-band (40-80Hz for instance) and be done. One possible problem I see is that when the trunk is open, bye-bye mechanical power handling. So the port will either have to be extended, or plugged. Completely blocked port wouldn't be too good of an idea for demos with the trunk open. The second idea is to keep the current alignment, increase the box volume as much as I can and make the most out of it with a ported box. Wouldn't that act as a bandpass box when the trunk is closed because of the fiberglass panel ? And it would throw my ported design out the window. Here is what I have to work with: Not the best picture of the setup put together Current box: Space I have to work with: Biggest question is: simulate bandpass with trunk closed or build biggest ported box I can fit ?

Happy Birthday !

Me neither. Heck I don't even take otc drugs ever. I don't drink hardly at all. Maybe once or twice a year. X2 on the drugs here. I did take over the counter pills for colds and various other stuff but nothing to drug me up. Can't say the same about alcohol but I've never ever blacked out or wasted. I don't even take medicine for colds. Just let my body fight it out. Of course I've only gotten 1 cold in the last 8 years or so. Which is pretty damn good seeing as I work outside, and the winters it is usually poring rain and in the mid 30's. I haven't took cold pills in quite some time too as I haven't noticed an improvement when doing so.

Same for me today...

I hate you Whenever I want to order sushi at work I need to convince my female co-workers to order too, so we all split delivery costs. Doesn't take much to convince them though

Reminds me of my cat, big freaking animal and meows like a one month old kitten.
