if the car is low and you have fat wheels, guards need to be taken out. If you have stance, hellaflush, you need your brains taken out :whistling:

Haha I had my last car "mitsubishi fto" rubbing a little but full lock would chew the tyres and the guards were takin out, just wAnt to avoid rocks and dirt getting between the panels. And it looks tidy having them in ;)

Z tune runs 18x9.5 +5...no guard issues

I'm talking about the inside plastic guards. Most skylines would have them removed. Not talking about rolling guards or anything. :)

So am I....... not removal required LOL

Cool. Just checking. You're talking GT-Rs and I'm talking about normal skylines. Didn't Noy have issues with scrubbing when he was running his 10" wheels?

I just prefer my wheels to fill the guards not sticking out or anything, hellaflush and all that shit is a bit stupid but I can appreciate the work.

looks like I'll just have to bite the bullet and pull it out aye :/ I intend on doing it by the book since I payed good money for my car and want it looking neat with a nasty bite ;)

      Surprisingly the D6000 is only $1999, I'm waiting for the BF/CM sales, and hoping to get one cheaper. D4000 is well priced, still outperforms the 13" SVS PB-3000 and is like 1/2 the price at $1699 RRP. I do watch a fair amount of movies, and listen to EDM, jazz, symphonies, etc. so the lower notes from a subwoofer are always appreciated. The front 8" stage, just doesn't provide you with lively feeling, even though they are pretty bassy for a pair of large bookshelves. Then again, these days it's just playing Wiggles, Blippi and Ms Rachel, another reason the 3m wide cabinet exists, to hide all the audio gear behind it. They used to sit on a nice pair of stands, but as you know, they make good baby traps too.

      Granted, which is a solid reason why I don't have one. My floorstanders are only -2 dB at 22 Hz.  So they're still working down to <20 Hz. Which is no doubt part of the reason why my receiver shits the bed! That Tonewinner would be about double the cost though, so it's not apples and apples. There aren't many AU$1300 subs (that you can buy prebuilt, I'm ignoring what can be achieved by DIYing) that compete.

      -6dB at 22Hz isn't that great, watch the data from the D6000 from REW

      I'll just leave this here. https://www.adelaidespeakers.com/subwoofers.html TL loading, big power. They sound awesome. This is what I would buy if I was going to try to take the bass away from my floorstanders. Just go with the 12".

      I'll snap up some photos when I'm back home, in the office today meeting my "in the office" quota. Have 2x Teams calls scheduled in, office culture they reckon.   I've never owned a proper off the shelf sub, I've always made or modified broken ones with Jaycar plate amps and/or car subwoofer drivers. The current (and broken) subwoofer has a proper home driver in it, Dayton driver, thos one https://www.daytonaudio.com/product/118/rss265hf-4-10-reference-hf-subwoofer-4-ohm FS of 25Hz, which is low but not low enough. Yeah, I think they were brought out to the market to compete with SVS. I would love a SVS PB-3000 but they're not cheap, especially after their price hike. From reviews online, it does look like the Tonewinner D6000 would destroy and with good amount of money saved too.
