  1. Don't be confused, the coaxials will benefit just as much as the component from proper deadening, amplification, and signal modification (EQ/Crossover). Also, coaxials can many times be a better alternative than components.

    We have Classifieds and rules for selling and trading. Please abide by these. Thanks!
  3. Look man, we're just trying to help. It's easy to see through the BS. Any court or judge will see through it too. We've all made mistakes and been in denial. It's easy to place blame on others, but what does that do? You know deep down that you and only you are at fault. Just think about that one.
  4. I'm a LOT farther south than you are. Ice here is RARE. Cold weather here is RARE. You can't just go dumping copious amounts of water in the road and not expect there to be a problem. They are causing a hazard. If there were "copioup amounts of water" in the street, it would have been clearly evident and you should have driven accordingly.
  5. Have you ever hit ice before? Do you understand what happens when your tires hit ice? From the way you posted, it doesn't seem like this is the case. When my tires hit the ice, they began to spin. Now, keep in mind that my tires are spinning. So when I hit dry pavement, and my traction returned, my car accelerated uncontrollably. This is what sent me over the curb and into a light pole. I turned left onto the street where several apartment complexes are located. Not 50-ft from the turn is when I hit the ice. Everyone who knows me knows I drive SLOW. I was doing MAYBE 25mph, if that. I would honestly have had to been in a full acceleration to have been going any faster, which I most definitely was not. Also, I did check the weather. I knew it was going to be cold as shit. I also knew it wasn't going to rain meaning there shouldn't be ice on the ground However, I don't have control of an apartment complexes sprinkler system to shut it off when it may freeze. That is THEIR responsibility and hence why I claim negligence on their part. One, I live in NW IN, so I am very familiar with adverse weather conditions. Two, when on ice and then going onto pavement where you get traction your car will not accelerate rapidly like what would cause your issue, especially if you had traction control and it was on. The traction control would have stopped the wheel spin since it was not relative to the front wheels. How do you explain that one? Are you going to sue Ford for the traction control malfunctioning. If you had common sense you would have realized your tires were spinning with a loss of traction and let off the gas instead of staying on it though the ice and onto the pavement again which is what caused your "rapid acceleration." BTW, if that thing got up to 25mph in 50 feet, you had your foot to the floor. Come on guy. 50 feet after a turn in an apartment complex going 25mph. . . That's just idiotic. BTW, you do know that the car's computer keeps a record of things such as throttle positions and wheel speeds and what not? Just think about it. Sprinkler or no sprinkler, it is the DRIVER'S RESPONSIBILITY to be aware of all driving conditions at all time. Black ice or not, this is not the fault of the apartment complex.
  6. I'm glad to hear you are okay, but this is nobody's fault but your own. Man up. Are you kidding me that you are going to blame your own negligence on someone's inability to check a weather forecast or not dump water into the street? It's evident from your first post you were driving far too fast and not for the conditions. Use this as a learning experience. Seriously.
  7. As a Mustang nut, I've done countless installs in Foxes. Best response will be with driver and vent on same plane angled at hatch, or walled off.
  8. Dude, seriously, you just need to do something to get your money back.
  9. You have a signal issue whether it be amp, RCA, or HU.
  10. I took a ladder and placed some anti-fatigue mats on it next to the boiler this morning and took a quick one. IT was 80 in the boiler room this morning, and 13 outside. When I walked in there, I instantly wanted to go back to bed.
  11. A warm smile and a hug are better than sleeping in. How about a big wet fart and a kick to the face?
  12. I was hoping to sleep in today, but Gavin's not one for sleeping in.
  13. I don't know if that will work with Cat stuff, but I can tell you, I have wired many Cat generators and have had to have technicians come out several times for issues with them. They all had proprietary equipment for diagnosis, but this could have been exclusive to the generators. The generators all all computer-controller as well and one micro-processor controlled all engine and generator functions. You should have a local Cat service place nearby you could contact. Easily cracked by any of the dyno manufacturers, but again that is why I ask about the sensors. Many of them might just be analog outs which opens all sorts of other options. Everything should be analog, with the possible exception of the ignition. They just send a voltage (range) out to the computer.

  15. It will be manufacturer specific. Just like vehicles all the software and much of the hardware is different and manufacturer specific. I am sure there are aftermarket for these, but access to the tools may be limited. All good diagnostics tools will have serial, USB, or some other form of data transfer. IIRC, Snap-On makes add-ons to do heavy equipment scanning.
  16. You go boy!
  17. No shit. How can a bank possibly let that slide?
  18. Only part of the post I understand. Thanks Ryan! You made me re-read my post and realized the "normal" terms in it, never once thought about that while I was typing though. Here it is again. Gonna get drunk in the morning with my whole family and we all are going to pretend it is civilized. Rich Uncle will up the ante and bring some expensive champagne and I have to serve something to eat. pancakes, sour cream, and fish eggs are an option but I done knocked up my wife and she can't eat fish eggs now same problem with eating a raw scallop with some vegetables and a sauce no cheese, I don't like it in the morning before a meal, but after yeah baby. I love deep fried shit with champagne, but it is a pain in the ass for 11 people and fuck that shit. Plus its breakfast. Tempt me. Someone in the family will yell at me if I put garlic in our snack or anything really strong tasting. Considering I only have to make the turkey, gravy, potatoes, & stuffing I'll make something else to. I have access to nearly anything. More people will see this here, but if I get a lot of ideas I'll move it to homeaudio Awesome!
  19. Only part of the post I understand.
  20. Nope, he gets a TRD blower.
  21. jay-cee and BJFish are awesome to purchase from!
  22. Yes, a self-controlled micro-processing equalizer.
  23. It's nothing more than an equalizer. The only difference is it is center around a certain frequency or band and Q.
  24. Finally an affordable aluminum block! http://www.summitracing.com/parts/FMS-M-6010-Z351/?rtype=10
  25. I can eat no more chicken soup.
