My sterio In in the Skyline

[Paulie_Bro]

Hi Guys,

just wondering what you'll think abt my sterio

i've got clarion in dash dvd touch screen, with tv tuner, 53 x 4 with 5.1 surround sound, 1000Watt Hertz Speakers in the front doors, with 4 tweeters, running off a baby dragster amp, i have 550 watt speakers in the rear running of the dvd computer, in the boot, i have 2 x 15" quad coil Digital Desgin subs, normally running off a 2000watt audison vrx amp which is spl tuned(blew it up gone for repair), so tempory amp is some alpine amp... which is running of a 15 farad (2000 jouels) compasitor, i've also upgraded the battery to a camping one...

the install is not finished yet... cause the amp getting blow on the last day of the install, we didn't bother finishing it off.... we're waiting for the amp to come back so we can paint and make the boot looking nicer....

i did most of the install my self, and my mate did the major wireing....

please tell me what you think....

nice looking - how much rattle do you get from the back end ... ?

also, one suggestion, move the tv to the top of the din slots, the aircon controls to the middle, then you dont have to close the screen to alter the temp ...

just my 2c

Hmm.... it seems that the top right corner of the aircon control slot is at an diagonal... does that mean it would have to be cut to fit the stereo... and then you would have a triangular hole in the middle

[WhiteR33]

BTW cool system.... I wish I have something like that too... but I need my boot space.

hey man, just a question can u PM me the details of those guages u got on ur din shelving under ur dvd screen, i been hunting for those for too long to remember, and have had no luck, cheers guys...

also can u also send me any sort of help to get the wiring of RCA's etc from the headunit to the boot, as i dont want to pull up carpet that i dont need to, and do damage to the carpet or plastic and would like the carpet to go back to its original position so as to keep the clean newish look to it... cheers guys... PM asap about guages and info :DDDD

thankx

I see they cut out a bit to fit the dvd screen. So moving the ac dials would look crap as you will be left with an untidy finish...

I love the sub box (the boot) very ambishis... Lucky installslike this dont cost 20g's these days. But still not cheap....

[Paulie_Bro]

thanx for the replies,

the reason y i i installed the screen where it is, cause the AC has that little angle on it, and it would of looked crap cutting and chopping... we did enough of that in the boot...

the dvd screen has a feature, you hoold the close button for 3 seconds, and it flips down so you can play around with the AC, then after 6 sec it flips back up...

i don't much rattles from the back end cause most of it has been fiber glassed, the boot is the only thing left to glass... pretty much the whole car neary ratthes on really low based songs...

yeah the set-up is worth abt 20 G's... but i never paid that much :>

[R33TypeMS2Wooshka]

hehe it looks mad as man, im just wodnering how good i can get these 2 epsilon 12"'s crankin [two of em] hooked up [or i wish they were !!! ] by an Epsilon 1500watt amp... hopefully i can get 130dB but i guess i can only hope ey...

[R33TypeMS2Wooshka]

PS. if only i met ya before i took the move a few weeks back to Melbz man... i coulda learnt alot from u, HEH i want that setup *pout*

learning as i go as per the messages mate... but yer, one thing i dont want to do is screw up

ya dont need to take the back seat out do u? cause ive heard how much of a **** they are ;/

[stagefumer11]

intresting how your using suck a high rated cap, when really with that type of system 1 farad will do.......................... 15 farad is really a over kill since you will never discharge any amount from it. Plus the cap only smooths out your votage spikes/drops

[Col-GTSX]

I just noticed u live at logan....

I hope you have a good alarm and 2 pit buls in the back seat... LOL

[R33TypeMS2Wooshka]

yea i saw that 2, i wasn' gunna say anything, wish he lived down here so he could help out us boys that are trying to get some [at home learning] for audio work (

im a builders labourer so i got the hands on ability, but calculations no way... or artistic talent out the window 2

[stÖrmy]

very nice looking system!, I hope to get something set up like that when i get my car

[R33TypeMS2Wooshka]

so tell me how the fark do u know what guage to use for ur amp?

and what guage to use from amp to subs [seeing the sub box that got made only has speaker wire support which is uber gay, unless i wrap a larger guage around it, which i doubt would be of any use, prob fall off (((

andddd I NEED HELP ;/

[Paulie_Bro]

like i said in the first post, my mate did the major wireing, and the wires running from the amp to the subs, is 170$ a metre, its high quallity speacker wire...

the reason why i got a 15 farad compasitor, is cause i wanted one and my mate said here's one, you can have it for 250$ i'm like sweet throw it in...

and the gauges model number is VD-100 can buy from www.jaycar.com.au

the gauges are a VU meter and voltage meter...

also i've got 2 gauge power wire running to the compasitor, and amps...

if you need help with your sterio, please e-mail me... its a lot easier...
