Welcome to the IHoP v.2
Now I'm hungry.

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
Nope, was a 'Merican in Japan. Keeping all those Japanese folks on the straight and narrow. MERICA! Funny shit, I read that as "Mexican in Japan." Knowing the domestic guys nowadays, this doesn't seem too odd.

That is rather odd. Anyways, All the Duratec engines are Mazda designs. Granted given their stake in Mazda their pretty much the same, but it's still designed by the Japanese.

Sexy and simple in comparison.That's because it's Japanese.

I laminate then do them at once. That way you are assured a symmetrical hole.

New Q 12 barely plays and bottoms out on low volume
I know a guy who runs a shop like that and you know what they do when people like you come in? They fuck your shit up in hopes you will buy what they are selling.

I do not, sorry, but I have replaced them on several Fords both IRS and live axles. Someone should have a cheap tool for the job for about $50.

I don't hear any issues in the video,it seems to be moving quite easily too. I think there is an installation issue, and cancellation comes to mind since he mentioned the other woofer was still hooked up.

Port Flares
I think he want to make and sell them himself.

So you have two totally different drivers in the same enclosure or even running at the same time?

You would still be wrong. you may have factored in every capacity, but you never thought about travel, centrifugal force,etc. . . . The 1000+lbs of audio equipment may be fine on your suspension while still; start moving the vehicle and it's a whole different ball game. Center of gravity, never thought about that did you? Unsprung weight, tensile strengths. You may have beat the odds for a little while, but the next time, and there will be a next time, you may not be so lucky.

You can NOT say for sure that would not have happened. You're thinking that you would be fine with all this shit is what got you here in the first place. If you want to do it, do it right. The small car with double it's intended payload, perhaps even more, is just not safe, no matter what you do or think. Listen to the man who sees these accidents every day with people who think and do as you do.

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
I fully agree, been preaching it for years. I hate to read one day when someone gets slammed and a woofer comes loose and decapitates someone.

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
Glad you're okay!!! You better pull all that shit out before the insurance adjuster looks at it. They might deny a claim.

Welcome to the IHoP v.2
I've never noticed that to be much a problem on the SC cars. Hell, the NA versions have over 200lb.ft of torque and they don't have an issue either. Go drive a MazdaSpeed3 or Volvo C30 without a Quaife.

Nice car, but he drives it in the winter and it's going to have rust, and a lot of it hidden unless he coats the thing in oil. I wouldn't pay more than $5K personally, but that's me. I'm always wary of people who actually call themselves "professional mechanics." If he was serious, he would say ASE certified, which still really doesn't mean shit, or Master. Cheap and easy to maintain and mod and insure, so. . . The 3800 is pretty much bulletproof, you know that.

A nice piece of ass will clear that up.

The McGurk Effect
Personally, I think vision plays the largest role. The judges see your drivers and the brain perceives the sound is coming from them. Hide the pillar drivers, and make a fake pod to sit on the hood to draw their eyes out and in the middle and I think you'll score even better.

Axles won't eliminate hop, that's suspension.
