I was of the same opinion, albeit without ever having researched the subject at all... I just assumed they'd just wash off etc but from everyone I've spoken to that has or has had it, they rate it..

Did you sus out any of his detailing photos? I looked at the blue mustang and black maloo photos and couldn't work out if he's not that good or just an average photographer..

Prolly just shit photos. Makes it look like all he's done is lightly wax the car. Need to take detailing photos in the right lights. My phone pics look better than that.

Also look up "post purchase dissonance" - most people have a tendency to say something they've bought is good, particularly if a sales pitch was involved in their purchase.

Any experts in headunits?

 

Been out of the game too long? Just want one that plays from phone and usb and any other cool features im not aware of

 

 

Also where to buy a loud as F**k horn so people stop merging into me

Amps and speakers are more important than the head unit

So just buy for looks and features, e.g. Bluetooth, audio in, USB, as they all do much the same thing

Get the triple

I have a mechless alpine headunit lying around you can have for like $80 or something. Pretty sure it has bluetooth, will have to check.

I paid like $400 for it and ran it in the pulsar for 2 years or something (aka 500kms)

Single DIN or Double DIN?

I put a Double DIN touchscreen in the Evo, a Pioneer DEH-X5xxxx(???) and it has been flawless. Phone -> Bluetooth -> Head Unit... + Wireless charging for the phone, means there's not a cable in sight.

    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
    • I just quote the Rolling Stones. Paint it black.
