Hi Guys,

Selling my precious amp to fund my S15 build. :D

The amp is a Rockford Fosgate 1501BD competition amp.

The amp was used for about 12-13 months, then I took it out and sold the car.. Since then it has sat in the cupboard, and because it was such a good amp, I never wanted to sell it..

Now I'm older, and prefer KW instead of DB, I have decided to part with it so I can spend the money on the S15.

If you know your amps, you would know what a monster this thing is.. I used to run 2 x RF subs, and the gain was never adjusted from the minimum amount as I didnt want to blow the subs!

These amps are used in DB competitions for some serious bass. :D

If you are looking for bass and have a sub that can stand the punishment from this amp, then I suggest you pick this up before its gone!

Specs from RF website:

# 750 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms

# 1500 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms

# Class bd technology

# requires 4-gauge power and ground leads and a 150-amp fuse and fuse holder

# selectable 50-250 Hz variable low-pass crossover, 24 dB/octave

# MEHSA mounting technology increases the heat transfer from the MOSFET output devices to the heat sink, for higher power output, lower operating temperatures, and greater reliability

# TOPAZ noise-killing differential inputs eliminate 80% of ground loop noise

# preamp outputs for easy connection to a second amplifier

# wired remote control of Punch Bass (0-18 dB centered at 45 Hz) — gives you fingertip control of your bass impact

# subsonic filter removes frequencies below the range of human hearing for increased efficiency

# bd Sync — allows two identical Class bd amps to be tied together to power one woofer

The amp is available for pickup from Mill Park, Victoria on weekends & after hours. Or in Laverton North during the weekdays and business hours..

I can post, but the amp is very heavy and I think you would pay a fair bit in freight!

Guys, you must use a minimum of 4 gauge cable to run this amp, it is very powerful, so if you are running 8 gauge, you will need to buy new power cables. I recommend 0 gauge, then splitting it to 4 gauge directly into the amp. A capacitor would be great. Specs suggest 4 farad..

The manual/specs are available from this link:

Have a read before buying! You wont be dissapointed!!

Quick sale!

$350 pick-up Mill Park.

      WA PITS: Am I screwed?

      I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .

      WA PITS: Am I screwed?

      Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?

      100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!

      ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
