audio-neon

does anyone know of any major reliablity issues with the 96-97 lt1 camaro/ t/a's? Might as well ask since that is what I am looking at buying.

I am not too pleased with my econo'chit' box lately. 15 mpg from a 4banger just b/c I am missing a radiator fan (will be in on monday) just pisses me off.

They do 180's, j-turns etc... very well. And personally there aren't many fwd cars that can stick to the road like a neon (they did dominate the scca in the late 90's). But for get up and go. They suck ass. The standard variant is almost 3 seconds quicker than the automatic.

You have made me jealous. My car is awaiting the second 1500d, but my carpeting skills just aren't there yet. And do I see 4 ga. speaker wire? for the negatives... I will have to take a pic of my pair when it is together.

You have never driven a bone stock sohc neon before than. I can put the ebrake on, tires won't even chirp. 50 weight oil on the tires is about the only way to get them to break loose from a stop. the first gear on the car (only 3 gears) is retardedly long. (goes to 54 mph). If it is raining and you stop on the white line, you might just be able to get them going long enough to hit redline, have 2 cylinders shut off the car shift into second and roll along. IF it is raining, you are going up hill (turning onto) a road, you might, just might be able to keep the tires spinning just long enough to get them to smoke... AND IF YOU have been driving a neon for ~ 4 years, and have gone through 2 motors and 3 trannies at this point you can say you have had as much experience trying to get neons to do burnouts. Later on this year when I blow another auto tranny, I am just going to plop in the standard I have sitting in my garage, along with my new motor.

apparently tonight is my holdiday off, so I am welcoming myself back to the hop. And honestly unless you drive a dodge neon everyday, you should know how to spin the tires with an auto.

Due to the length of the soundwaves at the frequencies a subwoofer is reproducing, as long as they are in absolute phase they will be in relative phase in a car environment. In a large room like an auditorium there will actually be "boomy" and "dead" spots b/c the woofers are in and out of phase with each other.

come on aaron, let the cat out of the bag, to see if I am going to be running mach 5 spl subs for street A or not.

goodnight hop, I am off to work...

I just realized that I hate sealed boxes... Can't wait for my aero's to get here.... I can hear and feel my bass but not like before...

Ohh and on another side note. UPS and Fedex aren't perfect. I have had stuff arrive from TC sounds while the tracking number still says awaiting pick up.

All I have to say is be glad you are buying from Fi and not TC sounds or DD. Anything custom from them is generally 4 months minimum. You also have to take into consideration that the post you are referring to says approximate, not exact. But of course we don't all run companies to know what delays are like. I would rather wait a few extra days for a custom built sub than buying an off the shelf sub anyday. But alas, sometimes things do happen and needs occur.

I don't think its tc built, but no guarantee's. I think I will buy it and send it to scott atwell and see what the mad scientist can do, if he doesn't want it than Thilo can play with it.

I have no clue, it is need of a recone, and I am about to buy it. My (levon) just bought a bunch of subs including some tc stuff from supa_c.

Does anyone know what this sub is. I have somebody looking to sell it to me but we don't know what it its. \ And yes it is a 10".

I want to play with an icon tooo! Oh well, maybe later on this year after the season dies down and tuition is payed for.

hello fellow hoppers. Anyone have a clue about my sub question on page 10289 i believe.

it is a ten. I have no clue what sub it is, I was told that it was an sq sub, but looks more spl to me.

Dumb question, but what's going on in MD? I'm not much into SPL, but I might have to stop by to check out the fun and put faces to names. There is a dB drag competition on the 15th of July in Suitland Maryland. There is a post about it under the team ssa board.

Ohh and the fascia to my wall:

I am sorry guys, I thought I was buying an rl-i. I don't even know what I am buying at this point.

I don't know aaron, technically you still have me by a couple db's. I was just barely knocking on 142's door at the last show I was at. Anyways here are some more pics.... (still waiting for my aero's, hyperflex, secondskin, second saz-1500d, etc)

morning hop (technically night for me). Does anyone know what this sub is. I have somebody looking to sell it to me but we don't know what it its.

Bring a dmm, don't blast your system between runs. keep the car and amps as cool as possible.

I just bought a table saw like 2 weeks ago actually. I have used that thing soo much since I have gotten it.
